Diff = abs(w(locs(1))-w(locs(2)));

plot(w,Sbb)
Running the code above generates a plot with 2 peaks. But as g2 increases, the peaks slowly vanishes/merges into one peak. I intend to find the peak separation as a function of g2 and this is shown in my Diff that I defined.
My issue is of the following: As g2 increases and eventually turns from two peaks into one, Diff cannot be computed since there is only one peak. So I get an error saying Index exceeds matrix dimensions. How can I resolve this by just letting the Diff = 0 the moment it has turn into one peak? (since there are no longer two peaks and so the peak separation should be 0)
I hope my question is clear and I would appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.

Try the following:
[pks,locs] = findpeaks(Sbb);
if numel(pks)==2
Diff = abs(w(locs(1))-w(locs(2)));
elseif numel(pks)==1
Diff=0;
end
figure(1)
plot(w,Sbb)
