Abstract
This paper presents the fabrication of a microcooler consisting of small stainless steel sorption compressor cells, micromachined silicon check valves, and a micromachined cold stage that incorporates glass-tube heat exchangers. The design, fabrication and experiments on the different elements are described. Two compressor cells were thermally cycled to investigate the dynamic behaviour. The cold stage could reach a stable temperature of 169 K with a cooling power of about 200 mW.
