Popis: Discrete peaks, which are identibed as the excited 2s state of the n=1 symmetric heavy-hole exciton, are observed in GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x As symmetric coupled double-quantum-well (SCDQW) samples by combining unpolarized and polarized photoluminescence-excitation measurements. The 1s-2s splitting of symmetric heavy-hole excitons is accurately determined in the SCDQW's. The 1s-2s splitting is significantly reduced compared to uncoupled quantum wells
