There is no need to convert it to Excel. It is only necessary to tell readmatrix (introduced in R2019a) that it is a text file, since that is not obvious from the file extension. Otherwise, readtable (inttroduced in R2013b) will work, with a minor modification to the readmatrix code.
Try this —
Uz = unzip('name2.zip')
Uz = 1x1 cell array
{'name2.spe'}
A1 = readmatrix(Uz{1}, 'FileType','text')
A1 = 512x2
0.5000 0.4389 1.0000 0.4886 1.5000 0.5076 2.0000 0.5121 2.5000 0.5063 3.0000 0.4991 3.5000 0.4867 4.0000 0.4771 4.5000 0.4651 5.0000 0.4516
<mw-icon class=""></mw-icon>
<mw-icon class=""></mw-icon>
x = A1(:,1);
y = A1(:,2);
figure
plot(x, y)
grid
T1 = readtable(Uz{1}, 'FileType','text')
T1 = 512x2 table
Var1 Var2 ____ _______ 0.5 0.43895 1 0.48862 1.5 0.5076 2 0.51209 2.5 0.50632 3 0.49912 3.5 0.48669 4 0.47707 4.5 0.46511 5 0.4516 5.5 0.43467 6 0.42078 6.5 0.4021 7 0.3875 7.5 0.37563 8 0.3562
x = T1{:,1};
y = T1{:,2};
figure
plot(x, y)
grid

@mohd akmal masud — As always, my pleasure!
To add axis labels to a 2D plot, use xlabel and ylabel, and to add a title, use title. (There are similar functions for 3D plots and groups of plots such as those produced by the tiledlayout function.)
