Figure 7: Two predicted Au36(SR)12 and Au42(SR)14 clusters based on GUM using C12 and C14 fullerenes as templates.

Structures of a C12 fullerene (a), Au30 core (b) and Au36(SR)12 cluster (c), as well as C14 fullerene (d), Au35 core (e) and Au42(SR)14 cluster (f). Colour code: Au—magenta; S—dark green; C—black. The R groups are omitted for clarity.
