Customizing Peak Widths for UV/Vis and Vibration Spectra
For both UV/Vis and Vibration spectra, the spectral intensities are
accompanied a plot of Lorentzian curves that approximate the appearance an
actual spectra. The width of the peaks in these spectra can be adjusted to
be wider or narrower to make the plot appear more realistic. For a set of
spectra, each spectrum can be adjusted independently. To adjust this
width:
- On the spectrum of interest, click the right mouse button to bring up
its context menu
- From the context menu, select Properties... at the bottom to bring up
the Plot Properties Dialog
- In the field next to IR Peak Width (Vibration Spectra) or UV-Vis
Peak Width (UV/Vis Spectra), type in the desired value and hit enter
- To accept the change and exit the Plot Properties Dialog, click the
left mouse button on the okay button
