The parasitic effects due to Magnetic Circular Dischroism and to the electron Zeeman splitting in the QW have been measured by photoluminescence spectroscopy under linearly polarized excitation light. We found that these effects yield a circular polarization degree PC <2% for B=0.8 T. This point was also confirmed by a control measurement on a device with a Pt layer instead of CoFeBo.
