An elliptically polarized pump-probe spectroscopy is developed. A theoretical model is derived from the rate equations of two-level system with small signal approximation to describe the experimental signal of the spectroscopy. The spectroscopy eliminates the systematic errors between theories and experimental results in present circularly polarized pump-probe spectroscopy, and is implemented easily in experiments. The initial degree of spin polarization of carriers in an excited state can be extracted by means of the spectroscopy, which is an important parameter in the investigation of spatial transport of spin polarization. The electron-spin relaxation in GaAs quantum wells is studied by using this spectroscopy.
