 note = {application/pdf, The CuSn alloy nanotree formed by DC electroplating is a true three-dimensional (3D) structure with many branches that separate the trunk perpendicularly. We carried out the oxidation of CuSn nanotrees in atmosphere in order to study the possibility of such nanotrees for application to sensors. It was confirmed that the oxygen concentration in the CuSn nanotree oxide increased with temperature and reached 40 at. % at 350 °C. The optical reflectance spectra of the CuSn nanotree oxide formed at 250 °C showed a 3–4% reflectance in the wavelength range between 400 and 900 nm, and its behavior differed from those of Cu and Sn oxides formed at 250 °C. The temperature dependence of electrical resistivity for the CuSn nanotree oxide showed a typical semiconductor behavior. By the introduction of H2, O2, N2, and CO gases into the chamber, the resistance of the CuSn nanotree oxide responded against H2 most sensitively, as well as against O2 and CO gases. From the resistance change tendency, it is strongly suggested that the CuSn nanotree oxide is a p-type semiconductor, because it shows an increase in conductivity caused by the adsorption of a negative charge such as O−. However, the conductivity decreases with the adsorption of a positive charge such as H+. The present study suggests the high potential of the CuSn nanotree oxide as a gas sensor, since it has a very high surface-to-volume ratio.},
