Abstract

Alonso and Zenobi (AZ) recently claimed “a comprehensive theoretical description of negative ion formation in UV-MALDI” (Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2016, 18, 19574). Emphasizing photoelectrons, it is found to be unphysical in several respects, including violation of charge and mass conservation, and in the treatment of ablation, expansion and electron capture. It is not internally consistent, and ions created by the photoelectron mechanism are given artificial preference. Although AZ claimed the “first proposal for a comprehensive theoretical description of negative ion formation in UV-MALDI”, the Coupled Physical and Chemical Dynamics model has successfully reproduced a number of phenomena relevant to negative ion production over many years.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
