after I click peak fitting button, this table come out and I can't click OK, so what your suggestion to overcome this problem and what the meaning of 'monotonic increase'?
Haris Kunari, after I click analysis and go to fitting what must I choice fit single peak or fit multi-peak if i want to fitting my graph (as shown my comment above). your fitting graph so look nicely. so i hope i can fitting my graph as same as your graph. TQ for your help.
Also we should not forget that after single or multiple peak analysis, the fitting approach Gauss function gives the FWHM directly. However, Lorentzian, Gaussian or Pseudo Voigt function gives FWHM as "w" in the results.
I agree that the Origin is the easiest by fitting/fitting single peak or fitting multi-peak. But the origin fit all the curve by using Gauss or Gaussian or Lorentz. Does the FWHM or "w" is correct or we should fit the peak only?
Hi, Alias! Have you gotten the answer to this question? Cause I'm having the same question now, and I need the answer so badly, could you please tell me the results? THANK YOU
Hello. The w-value (width) is not always the FWHM value. For the GAUSS function the FWHM=w*sqrt(ln4), for the VOIGT function there is approximation FWHM=0.5346wL+sqrt(0.2166*wL^2+wG^2), where wL and wG (widths of the Lorentzian and Gaussian contributions) are given by the Origin after the fitting.
There is one big drawback if you use origin or the commercially available software packages. They actually do not offer you the most physically reasonable function which is that of the classical damped harmonic oscillator model (CDHO). In fact, while everybody uses Lorentz-profiles it seems that only few people are aware of the fact that the Lorentz-profile has been derived from the CDHO by applying three different approximations and those hold only very good for comparable weak oscillators.
Another drawback of such software is that the Lorentz-profile was originally introduced for only one oscillator. It seems that the extension to more than one is straightforward, but if you do it in the correct way, then you can not only obtain the oscillator parameters like damping, strength and position, but also calculate the changes of the index of refraction function (without having to invoke the Kramers-Kronig relations!).

Hello Everyone, my question is very basic, but I am confuse so I am asking. I used origin to calculate FWHM and got FWHM= 3.00889 but I don't know the unit of it, either it is in degree or nm?
Giang Nguyen thanks for your kind response. Someone told me that the unit is in nm. Could you please provide me literature related to it, if possible then. I will be thankful.
Ezzah Azimah Alias FWHM or the integral breadth (in some cases) play a vital role in the calculation of crystallite size (through Scherrer equation), microstrain, and Williamson-Hall plot etc. In the following video tutorial, I have discussed how to calculate FWHM using Origin. For example, FWHM is used in XRD for calculating crystallite size with the help of Scherrer equation. The video explains all the steps to be performed to calculate FWHM. In the case you want to further ask about it, please do comment on the specific video, I'll respond to it shortly. I have provided the practice file here. Thanks
