Abstract
Circularly polarized optical excitation of a semiconductor microcavity in a transverse magnetic field leads to pulsed laser emission with al ternating circular polarization synchronized to the electron Larmor pr ecession. The synchronization originates from the transfer of electron -spin coherence to the dynamics of the optical field. A microscopic th eory is developed to analyze the coupled carrier-light-field dynamics.
