A microscopic analysis of experimental GaInP quantum well gain spectra is presented for a wide range of excitation. A consistent treatment of carrier collision effects, at the level of quantum kinetic theory in the Markovian limit, is found to be necessary for agreement with experiment. {copyright} {ital 1997 American Institute of Physics.}
