Abstract:A model Hamiltonian for a system of interacting electrons, holes and Wannier excitons is derived. This system of electronic excitations is assumed to be in a quasi-equilibrium state. With the aid of Bogolubov's variational principal the thermodynamic potential is calculated. Using the most general mean-field Hamiltonian as a trial Hamiltonian, a set of coupled integral equations is obtained for the self-energies. These equations are solved numerically for equal effective masses of the electrons and holes. Below a critical temperature ofk B T cap0.65E ex b whereE ex b is the exciton binding energy, we find a first order phase transition from an exciton rich phase into a degenerate electron-hole phase. The mechanical and thermal stability of both phases is proven. Below a critical temperaturek B T cap0.11E ex b the exciton system becomes degenerate (Bose-Einstein condensation). A complete phase diagram of these three phases is given.This is a project of the Sonderforschungsbereich Frankfurt/Darmstadt, financed by special funds of the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft
