    Abstract

    It is argued that electron-hole correlation can have a large effect on the oscillator strengths of bound excitons, and may help to explain the observations of shallow excited states for donor bound excitons in direct gap semiconductors. For quantum wells it is found that compression of the exciton wave function yields a 1/L dependence of oscillator strength on well width L for narrow wells
