Abstract
The scenario for exciton binding by rare earth (RE) ions is described. The RE intra-shell emission can be induced by an energy transfer from RE bound excitons to the RE ''core'' states. Carrier binding can also deactivate the RE emission. Auger-type recombination channels are dis cussed based on the results of photoluminescence and optically detecte d cyclotron resonance (ODCR) studies of Yb doped InP and RE doped wide band gap II-VI compounds.
