For the quoted cubic-phase gap,The same exciton binding argument can shift the actual emission to longer wavelength; impurity-bound transitions can also lie below the fundamental gap. The comparison must use at the operating temperature. Ordinary temperature-dependent gap changes can shift the band edge in the opposite direction, so the numerical values based on fixed supplied gaps are not universal lower bounds for every cooled device.
