Abstract
It is shown that the polarisation ellipticity of light emitted by a VC SEL, which is optically pumped with circularly polarized light, depend s significantly on the strength of the transverse magnetic field. This dependence can be used for a precise determination of the electron sp in relaxation rate under lasing conditions at room temperature.
