A reduction of the biexciton binding energy with increasing well thickness is observed, as a result of the reduced quantum confinement and the increasing impact of the quantum confined Stark effect. In the sample with 5% Al content in the barriers, for thicknesses of the well region larger than similar to 9 monolayers, the biexciton binding energy is found to be smaller than that measured for bulk GaN.
