Abstract
In the present chapter investigations into the emission mechanisms for light emitting diodes and lasers are discussed. We find the first evidence for proposing laser emission from excitons localized at local potential fluctuations. This concept will be further developed to explain the results also given in Chaps. 13 and 14.
