Gaussian-Lorentzian Ratios 

 

 

Gaussian-Lorentzian SUM  (GLS)

 

 

 

 

Overlay of Pure 100% Gaussian and Pure 100% Lorentzian Peak-shapes, normalized to maximum peak intensity

 

 

 

True VOIGT  (is not a convolution of Gaussian and Lorentzian peak-shapes)

 

 

 

Plot of the centered Voigt profile for four cases.

Each case has a full width at half-maximum (FWHM) of very nearly 3.6.
The black and red line profiles are the limiting cases of the Gaussian (γ =0) and the Lorentzian (σ =0) profiles respectively.
