Changed functions in this release

Version 2.1 (03/06/2009) - Current Release

No program functions have changed in this release. Two database spectra have been revised: (i) a new emission spectrum of benzene, and (ii) correction to an error in the molar absorption coefficient of chlorophyll b

Version 2.1 (11/01/2007)

Graph Setting: The bugs regarding the scale for graph settings that related to wavenumber and energy (eV, kcal, and KK) have been fixed.

Energy Transfer Simulation: A bug regarding calculation of absorption coefficients has been fixed. The original emission spectra now are displayed together with the simulated emission spectrum, which facilitates visual comparison.

Oscillator Strength Calculation: Users can choose a region of the spectrum for calculation: (a) an arbitrary spectral region, selected manually, or (b) automatic integration of the fwhm region of the largest peak within the range.

Transmission: A new function has been added to enable control over the intensity of the radiation (absorption spectrum) by multiplying by a factor (1 to 0).

Add/Subtract spectra: Multiple spectra now can be manipulated mathematically at the same time (in version 2.0, it was limited to 2 spectra). A bug regarding the absence of data points in the background region (typically above 800 nm) has been fixed. Now when the spectrum does not have data points in some regions, it is regarded as the base line, thus the data will be treated as 0.
