Photoionization mode refers to a process where an atom or molecule is ionized through the absorption of photons, typically in the ultraviolet (UV) or X-ray range. In this process, the energy of the incoming photons is sufficient to remove one or more electrons from the atom or molecule, resulting in the formation of positive ions.
