Comparison of calculated and experimental UV-Vis spectra for a Ag17, b AuAg16, c Ag13Cu4, and d AuAg12Cu4. As two spectra are compared, absorbance is plotted in arbitrary units. Major peak positions are marked. Inset figures show the induced density (i.e., electron density oscillations, where red and blue are the positive and negative isosurfaces, respectively) for the excitations related to the peaks at a Ag17: 396 nm, b AuAg16: 389 nm, c Ag13Cu4: 428 nm and d AuAg12Cu4: 423 nm.
