Updated version of the program published as supporting material of the paper Analysis of temperature-programmed desorption via equilibrium thermodynamics by M. Schmid, G. S. Parkinson, and U. Diebold, ACS Phys. Chem. Au 2 , 44–62 (2022), doi: 10.1021/acsphyschemau.2c00031, opens an external URL in a new window. The program can simulate TPD spectra assuming a lattice gas of adsorbates and it can also calculate the adsorption energy distribution from an experimental TPD spectrum at saturation coverage. The zip archive also contains a list of changes and the plotly library. If this library (plotly-latest.min.js) is saved in the same directory as the html file, the local version of the library will be used, and an internet connection will not be needed to see the plot(s).
