Luminescence mechanisms: Photoluminescence (PL) Electroluminescence (EL) Electrons are injected into the excited state band and relax to the lowest available level. The photon is emitted when an electron in an excited state drops down into an empty state in the ground state band. These empty state are generated by the injection of holes. The
