We demonstrate circularly polarized light emission from InAs quantum dots embedded in the waveguide region of a GaAs-based chiral nanostructure. The observed phenomenon originates due to a strong imbalance between left- and right-circularly polarized components of the vacuum field and results in a degree of polarization as high as 26% at room temperature. A strong circular anisotropy of the vacuum field modes inside the chiral nanostructure is visualized using numerical simulation. The results of the simulation agree well with experimental results.
