Abstract

Keldysh’s theory of a rarefied superfluid electron-hole gas is extended to the case of possible pair polarization. It is established that the complex order parameter Φ(r1,r2), which is the wave function of a pair, satisfies a nonlinear, nonlocal, integrodifferential equation. The equation obtained is solved for the order parameter varying slowly over a distance of the order of the pair size. The dipole-moment density of the system is found from the known function Φ(r1,r2), and it is shown that the inhomogeneity of the system engenders a dipole moment proportional and oriented parallel to the gradient of the particle density. It is determined that an additional dipole moment associated with pair polarization due to the Lorentz force appears in a magnetic field.
