Ag<sub>29</sub> nanoclusters capped with lipoic acid (LA) can be doped with Au. The doped clusters show enhanced stability and increased luminescence efficiency. We attribute the higher quantum yield to an increase in the rate of radiative decay. With mass spectrometry, the Au-doped clusters were found to consist predominantly of Au<sub>1</sub>Ag<sub>28</sub>(LA)<sub>12</sub><sup>3-</sup>. The clusters were characterized using X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Au L<sub>3</sub>-edge. Both the ...[more]
