Sooo... It's not just radiation that causes matter formation around blackholes. Black hole is so freaking massive that explosions near or close to it, it's rotation it's self, and crushing gravity bobbing up and down in the space time around it, will cause shockwaves to ripple through spacetime clumping any matter and radiation that has been thrown off the blackhole together into either clouds of matter, or stepping even further to cause the matter to collapse into smaller objects such as stars, dark matter, etc.

So it's not just the heat and radiation. A lot can affect matter formation, but for it to clump together you need something to basically adjitate the molecules together. A black hole is perfect for this because of the affect it has on the space-time fabric it's self due to it's mass... so any movement from the object it's self will send shockwaves radiation for billions of lightyears through space.... Though radiation it's self can errode matter together into clumps as well.

Uhhh... that's a laymans basic :P
