Photoluminescence from InGaAs quantum well structures exhibits a strong peak at the energetic position of the 1s exciton resonance. This is independent of the presence of an incoherent excitonic population. We perform time-resolved photoluminescence experiments over a large range of carrier density and lattice temperatures. A detailed analyses using a microscopic theory identifies the plasma and excitonic contributions to the emission. A phase diagram for the bright incoherent excitonic contributions is then extracted. At low lattice temperatures, 4K, and intermediate and low densities small fractions of bright excitons can completely dominate the emission. For larger lattice temperatures, 50K, the excitonic contributions is negligibly small.
