Fit a general data set (or specially the phonon spectral energy density) as a Lorentzian function to obtain the peak position (or phonon frequency) and full width at half maximum (or relaxation time).

Abstract
This tool was designed for fitting phonon spectral energy, but can be also used for fitting a general data set to get the full width at half maximum (FWHM).
The phonon spectral energy density function can be obtained from the Nanohub tool "Spectral phonon relaxation time calculation tool by using normal mode analysis based on molecular dynamics" (https://nanohub.org/tools/phononlifetime).
