I have to remove a specific peak from a series of photoluminescence spectra since it "superposes" to the tail of a second more important peak. This unwanted peak (laser) has the same intensity and position for all spectra, so I performed a multi-peak fit on one spectra, and now as output I have the curve I shoud subtract for each spectra. Fine.

The problem is: the x axis steps are different between measured spectra and laser "fit" curve, so that if I simply subtract the two y columns, the laser peak is subtracted at the wrong x position.
Is there a way to "contract" coherently the number of x and y points of the "fit" curve to match the ones of my spectra?

I am thinking about a solution since a while with no success
I hope you can help me!

Hi,

Do you want to perform subtraction on two curves? If yes, I think you can try Simple Curve Math by selecting Analysis: Mathematics: Simple Curve Math from the menu. More info please refer to this page:
