In this comment we discuss some aspects of Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2022, 24, 15851, by Allison et al., an article intensely motivated by our study of grazing incidence fast atom diffraction (GIFAD) for He–KCl(001) [G. A. Bocan, H. Breiss, S. Szilasi, A. Momeni, M. E. Staicu Casagrande, M. S. Gravielle, E. A. Sánchez and H. Khemliche, Phys. Rev. Lett., 2020, 125, 096101; G. A. Bocan, H. Breiss, S. Szilasi, A. Momeni, M. E. Staicu Casagrande, E. A. Sánchez, M. S. Gravielle and H. Khemliche, Phys. Rev. B, 2021, 104, 235401]. In particular, (a) we show that, contrary to first order perturbation prediction, the surface corrugation is not proportional to the tangent of the rainbow angle and, (b) we analyze whether a Morse-like formula, like the one Allison et al. use, is able to reproduce the atom-surface potential derived from density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In addition, we give some clarifications regarding specific remarks the authors made about our articles.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

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.
