Abstract Understanding the effect of decorating of copper oxide (CuO) on Carbon monoxide (CO) adsorption at zinc oxide nanotube is crucial for designing a high performance CO gas sensor. In this work, CO sensing properties of copper oxide-decorated zinc oxide (CuO-ZnO) nanotube is studied theoretically by employing first-principles density functional theory for the first time. The stability, adsorption mechanism, density of states, and change in electrical conductivity are studied. The results of calculating the adsorption energy show strong chemical adsorption of CO on CuO-ZnO nanotubes. The adsorption energy of CO on CuO-ZnO nanotube is calculated as 7.5 times higher than that on ZnO nanotube. The results of the Mulliken charge analysis reveal that electron transfer occurs from CO molecules to CuO-ZnO nanotubes. Additionally, the electrical conductivity of CuO-ZnO nanotubes significantly changes after adsorption of CO at room temperature. According to these studies, CuO-ZnO nanotube sensors can be used for the detection of CO gas. The results are in excellent agreement with the reported experimental results.
