In this paper we study the optical extinction spectra of alloy and composite nanoparticles containing magnesium and gold. The dielectric properties are calculated within the approximation of independent particles (IPA) based on the electronic structure obtained using density functional theory (DFT) with Hubbard correction (DFT+U). The obtained spectra of optical extinction of magnesium–gold alloy nanoparticles demonstrate that the most sensitive to the composition is the region of wavelengths below 500 nm. Simultaneously, the position of the plasmon resonance predicted by Vegard’s law is higher than obtained from accurate DFT+U based calculations.
