  • Abstract
    Results of a series of computer simulations of a transient photoluminescence experiment are presented. It is demonstrated that even in regions where the experimentally obtained decay curves show single exponential behavior, the slopes do not correspond to any single physical carrier lifetime. A series of measurements over a range of intensities is required to extract such parameters
