The electronic structure and relaxation dynamics of a bimetallic monolayer-protected cluster, Au24Pd(SCH2CH2Ph)(18), are investigated with steady-state and femtosecond optical spectroscopies. The central issue examined here is the localization of electronic states to the cluster's M-13 core and six M-2-(SCH2CH2Ph)(3) semiring moieties (i.e., M is Au or Pd). Photoluminescence spectra support the existence of ligand-localized electronic states by showing that Au24Pd(SCH2CH2Ph)(18) conforms to the trend of size-independent emission frequencies previously established for monolayer-protected clusters ranging in size from 11 to similar to 201 Au atoms. In addition, transient grating measurements find a separation in time scales for electronic relaxation within in the M-13 core (
