STEADY-STATE SOLUTIONS AND ASYMPTOTIC LIMITS ON THE MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SEMICONDUCTOR QUANTUM HYDRODYNAMIC MODEL.

In this paper we study the steady-state quantum hydrodynamic model for semiconductors. The existence of solutions on the bipolar QHD model is obtained in the case of sufficiently small relaxation time. Uniqueness results are showed both in the thermal equilibrium states and the scaled Planck constant being large enough. The relaxation time and dispersive limit are performed on the bipolar and unipolar equations, respectively. In a sense, we have made a complete answer to the original unsolved problems of the steady-state QHD model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
