Reply to the ‘Comment on “Excitation and ionization processes of chlorine in molybdenum dichloride dioxide flakes using the glow discharge mass spectrometry technique”’ by Z. Weiss, J. Anal. At. Spectrom., 2022, 37, https://doi.org/10.1039/D2JA00058J
Abstract
An asymmetric charge transfer (ACT) process is discussed for argon plasma with a molybdenum sample. The energy level diagram based on improved molybdenum ionic energy levels shows that there are several sextet ionic terms, near to ∼15.7 eV, the ionization energy of argon ions. This means that both the exoergic ACT and endoergic ACT reactions are possible, in which argon ions collide with the molybdenum atoms, resulting in the asymmetric charge transfer process.
