You can find high-resolution simulated stellar spectra in several online databases. The PHOENIX and Kurucz model libraries are excellent resources, providing spectra across a wide wavelength range for various temperatures and surface gravities. The Spanish Virtual Observatory (SVO) and the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST) also offer tools to access and download these synthetic spectra for stars of different types and evolutionary stages.
