We extend our previous analysis of gauge and Dirac fields in the presence of a chemical potential. We consider an alternative thermal operator which relates in a simple way the Feynman graphs in QED at finite temperature and charge density to those at zero temperature but nonzero chemical potential. Several interesting features of such a factorization are discussed in the context of the thermal photon and fermion self-energies.
