چکیده
One-dimensional stationary energy-transport equations for semiconductors in the dual entropy variable formulation are numerically discretized employing a mixed-hybrid finiteelement method which has the advantage to fulfill current conservation. Numerical results for two ballistic diodes are presented and numerical convergence rates are computed.

A 3d Mixed Finite-element Approximation of the Semiconductor Energy-transport Equations
The stationary energy-transport equations for semiconductors in three space dimensions are numerically discretized. The physical variables are the electron density, the energy density, and the electric potential. Physically motivated mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions are employed. The numerical approximation is based on an hybridized mixed finite-element method using Raviart-Thomas el...

Abstract. The mathematical model for semiconductor devices in three space dimensions are numerically discretized. The system consists of three quasi-linear partial differential equations about three physical variables: the electrostatic potential, the electron concentration and the hole concentration. We use standard mixed finite element method to approximate the elliptic electrostatic potentia...
