Abstract :
A number of errors and inconsistencies seems to occur in the paper by Taylor and Claisse. As a consequence, the main results of the paper appear to be incorrect. A simple argument provides a better understanding of the reduced ambipolar lifetime when assuming a fixed carrier concentration in the quantum well above threshold
