The appearance and properties of a structure in the density distribution of indirect excitons in coupled quantum wells in semiconductor alloys upon periodical field modulation are studied. Calculations showed that besides periodical dependence of density distribution, caused by the potential modulation, a stratification of the exciton density shafts into separate islands in the cross direction arises. Appearance of islands is the result of exciton condensed phase formation and a nonequilibrium state of the system due to the finite exciton lifetime and pumping presence. The dependence of the structure on system parameters (the pumping value, the modulated field depth and period) is investigated. Also the influence of the exciton-exciton annihilation is taken into account.
