On conversion of luminescence into absorption and the van Roosbroeck-Shockley relation
The problem of conversion of experimentally measured luminescence spectrum into the absorption cross section is revisited. The common practice of using the van Roosbroeck-Shockley (or Kubo-Martin-Schwinger or Kennard-Stepanov) relation in this context is incorrect because luminescence from semiconductors is essentially all due to the spontaneous emission component of the recombination …
