Abstract A personal computer program has been developed for use in the interactive analysis of positron lifetime spectra with the aid of a graphic display. The multi-exponential function model is used to fit a spectrum by the linear least-squares method. The spectrum displayed on the screen is altered simultaneously as the lifetime components are stripped one by one from the longest-lived to the shortest. The merit of this code is that it provides the user with a visual feedback at any stage of the analysis. Moreover, the obtained model parameters of the spectrum can be used as initial estimates for the POSITRONFIT program used for final analysis.
