We develop a mean-field theory of the spatial profile and the spectral properties of polariton condensates in nonresonantly pumped semiconductor microcavities in the strong coupling regime. Predictions are obtained for both the continuous-wave and the pulsed excitation regimes and the specific signatures of the non-equilibrium character of the condensation process are pointed out. A striking sensitivity of the condensate shape on the optical pump spot size is demonstrated by analytical and numerical calculations, in good quantitative agreement with recent experimental observations.
