Abstract
A procedure has been developed for representing an infrared absorption peak by a general mathematical form, not restricted to Gaussian or Lorentzian shape. A computer program using this procedure will be described for obtaining the individual components from an infrared band consisting of two overlapping peaks. The method is also applicable to other overlapping peaked curves, such as are obtained in chromatography, countercurrent distribution, x‐ray diffraction, and other branches of spectroscopy.
