Figure S2. CO2 reduction on Sn deposited on polycrystalline Cu ( KHCO3, ph 6.8, saturated CO2).

5 Figure S7. XPS spectra of (a) Cu 2p (b) O 1s and (c) Sn 4d including valence bands for different samples. Figure S7 shows XPS spectra for Cu 2p, O 1s, and Sn 4d and UV photoelectron spectra (valence electron) and the values are compared in Table S1. From Cu 2p, The reference Cu2O standard was pretreated in acid to remove any possible Cu(II) species on the oxidized surface; the deconvolution of the Cu 2p3/2 resulted in one peak at ev and another minor contribution with peak maxima at ev. The high-resolution O 1s spectra was resolved, exhibiting a peak at ev, which can be assigned to oxygen from Cu2O in reasonable agreement with literature. 1 CuO reference sample shows Cu(II) present as CuO or Cu(OH)2 exhibiting the prominent shake-off satellite peaks from 941 to 945 ev from the partially filled Cu 3d 9 shell. 2,3 The CuO standard Cu 2p3/2 spectra were resolved into two peaks at and ev, the former peak was assigned to Cu(II). The minor peak observed at ev on both the Cu2O and CuO reference samples can be assigned to Cu(OH)2. 4 The O 1s spectra for CuO indicated the characteristic oxide peak at ev, which has a significant chemical shift compared with Cu2O. 1 The peaks in the O 1s region observed at larger binding energies than 532 ev may be attributed to hydroxide oxygen or chemisorbed hydroxyl oxygen. 4,5 The metallic Cu sheets were treated with 2 M HNO3, submerged in Milli-Q water, dried under an intense N2 stream and quickly introduced to the vacuum chamber of the XPS apparatus. The acid-treated sheet resulted in one Cu 2p3/2 peak with maxima at ev. 3 All the OD-Cu and Cu-Sn samples, the O 1s spectra shows the presence of surface oxygen species because of unavoidable exposure to the air in our experiments. Sn 4d spectra also show the mixed valence of the oxidized Sn, consistent with the Sn 3d spectra shown in the main manuscript. S5

11 Electronic structure of Cu-Sn alloys: Figure S11. The crystal structures of different compositions of the Cu-Sn alloy. From left to right: SQS-Cu24Sn8, Cu3Sn and Cu6Sn5. In this part, we summarize the study of the electronic structures of different compositions of intermetallic compounds (Cu-Sn), as discussed above and shown in Figure S10. The density of states (DOS) of the three examined Cu/Sn alloys is quite similar to that of pure Cu, although the peak heights are different owing to the various compositions (Figure S11). We will focus on the case of Cu6Sn5 as a representative example because there is no change among the three compositions of the nano-alloys. For pure Cu, the DOS (given in states ev 1 ) at the Fermi level is relatively low but finite in all cases, which indicates a metallic behavior. It increases slightly with Sn content for the Cu Sn compounds, increasing from 5 states/ev on the pure Cu to approximately 22 states ev 1 for Cu6Sn5 (Figure S12). The most noticeable bonding band is completely occupied and extends from 5.0 to 2.0 ev approximately below the Fermi level. It is mostly defined by the contribution of Cu-d states, with additional minor contributions of Sn s and p states for the Cu Sn compound. For the PDOS of Sn, the s states are dominant for energies below 7 ev, and the p states are dominant for higher energies up to 4 ev. We also observe that contributions from Sn p states to the PDOS at the Fermi level are more present than those of p and d states of Cu atoms. Figure S12 shows the projection of the d-orbital of Cu on Cu6Sn5 compared to pure Cu. It is clear that in the alloy, the edge of the band corresponding to the Cu-d states is shifted to lower energy, and it is approximately 0.5 ev narrower than that of pure Cu. This result is due to the reduction in the number of Cu-Cu bonds. However, the center of the d-band, which is usually related to catalytic activity, is unaffected because this band in Cu is completely filled and well below the Fermi level. 9,10 Figure S12 shows that at low energy ( 10 to 6 ev), there is a contribution of Sn-s states, which can be explained by the presence of free electrons. However, Sn-p states increase with increasing energy. This analysis allows us to conclude that the presence of Sn in the compound does not dramatically affect the electronic structure of pure Cu; thus, the different experimental behavior of Cu/Sn alloys from pure Cu is possibly a result of a perturbation of the surface properties, either in terms of the geometry of the active site or in terms of the electronic properties of the active site.
