  text: We present a simple analytic scheme for calculating the binding energy of
    excitons in semiconductors that takes full account of the existing anisotropy
    in the effective mass, as a complement to the qualitative treatment in most textbooks.
    Results obtained for excitons in gallium nitride form the basis for a discussion
    of the accuracy of this approach.

  text: Wir präsentieren ein einfaches analytisches Verfahren zur Berechnung der Bindungsenergie
    von Exzitonen in Halbleitern, das die vorhandene Anisotropie in der effektiven
    Masse vollständig miteinbezieht, in Ergänzung zu der qualitativen Betrachtung
    in den meisten Lehrbüchern. Ergebnisse für Exzitonen in Galliumnitrid bilden die
    Grundlage für eine Diskussion der Genauigkeit dieser Methode.
