15. We did not manage to observe this second oscillating period in the ZnO epilayer (sample I) probably because of the weaker measured circular polarization in this sample.

24. Note that the model developed here does not take into account the free exciton state F XA, contrarily to the model used in Ref., since the ionization rate of the bound exciton is negligible in the temperature range investigated here.
25. The small discrepancy observed in Fig. 3 between the model and the experimental data may be due to our approximation in which we neglect the excited hole spin dephasing rate with respect to the energy relaxation rate down to the ground state.
