Resolving overlapped spectra with curve fitting

A novel method of curve fitting based on Gaussian function, which is used to resolve the overlapped peaks, is presented in this paper. The resolution of several kinds of overlapped peaks with noise simulated by computer has been performed and discussed in details. This method has been used for resolving of the UV-vis overlapped spectrum. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm can been used to resolve overlapped spectra effectively and satisfactorily.
