Luminescence from compressed electron-hole plasma in germanium
TLDR
In this paper, the luminescence spectra from compressed electron-hole plasma in pure germanium were studied and a satisfactory thermalization of the charge carriers was shown to lead to a reasonable value of the compressibility.About:

The Metal‐Insulator Transition in Electron‐Hole Systems
TL;DR: Theoretical studies of the metal-insulator transition in electron-hole systems in indirect semiconductors are presented in this article, based on various screening theories and on thermodynamical continuity requirements.

Electron-Hole Condensation in Semiconductors: Electrons and holes condense into freely moving liquid metallic droplets, a plasma phase with novel properties
TL;DR: The electron-hole drop represents the first example of a quantum liquid of constant density in a periodic crystal lattice and will be found to exist in other semiconductors, perhaps at even higher temperatures.
