The exciton-polariton condensation scenario in a microcavity matter–light system at finite temperature is investigated in the framework of the unrestricted Hartree–Fock approximation applying the two-dimensional exciton-polariton model. Treating electron–hole Coulomb interaction and matter–light coupling effects on an equal footing, we analyze the temperature influence on the excitonic and photonic order parameters. In the thermal equilibrium limit, the Kosterlitz–Thouless type phase transition of the exciton-polariton condensation has been found. Depending on detuning and excitation density one finds that the system either favors the photonic or excitonic condensate. The effect of temperature on a crossover from a BCS-excitonic to a BEC-polaritonic condensed state then is discussed.
