Small gold clusters show very suprising properties, like highly enhanced catalytical activity. The electronic properties of small clusters can be modified by doping with transition metal atoms. We investigated the local electronic structure of small doped gold clusters (AunM n=1-8, M=Sc,Ti,V,Cr) by means of X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The electronic structure is very sensitive to the doping and geometric structure of the cluster. Electron localization of the 3d orbitals of the impurity atom and shell closure effects in the gold host matrix can be deduced from comparison to atomic Hartree Fock calculations.
