:''Note 2'': In some older literature the ionization efficiency is defined as the fraction of electrons or photons that ionize a fixed number of molecules.

:''Note 3'': The ionization efficiency strictly refers to the ionization events in the ion source. The fraction of molecules that are ionized and are subsequently detected also depends on the detection sensitivity of the instrument used. | |||
