Latest review

First review round: 5.0 weeks. Overall rating: 5 (excellent). Outcome: Accepted.

Motivation:
This was my second paper submitted to The Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, but my first as the lead author. The editorial process with ACS Publications was exceptionally smooth. The reviewer comments were both timely and constructive, greatly contributing to the quality of the final manuscript. As we opted for transparent peer review, the full reviewer report is available as Supporting Information on the article's journal page.
