By means of photoluminescence (PL) spectra we have investigate the Landau level structure of direct and indirect excitons in AlGaAs/GaAs coupled-quantum-wells (CQW). The electric and magnetic fields were applied perpendicular to the CQW. For magnetic fields B > 2T higher Landau levels (LL) can be observed. The non-equilibrium carrier density was estimated from the intensity evolution of the different LLs for the indirect excitons: i) the second LL disappears for the fields corresponding to filling factor ν < 2 and ii) the intensity of the first LL decreases at ν = 1. We have noted that the effective density increases with increasing electric field. The observed phenomena will be discussed.
