摘要: We have performed plane-wave pseudopotential calculations based on density-functional formalism with the generalized gradient approximation to study atomic and electronic structure of neutral charged palladium-doped gold clusters ${\mathrm{Au}}_{n}\mathrm{Pd}$ $(n=1,4).$ observe odd-even oscillations in highest occupied lowest unoccupied molecular-orbital gaps electron affinities, latter conformity recent photoemission experiments Koyasu et. al. The stability these are discussed.
