Abstract
A study was made of the screening of excitons in a GaN sample, which w as simultaneously excited with a HeCd laser and an Ar+ ion laser. The Ar+ ion laser excites carriers in a two step process, involving an imp urity or defect. A comparison with transport measurements shows that t he photoluminescence is probably emitted from a higher-quality portion of the sample than that which conducts the current.
