✦ Synopsis

Communicated by P. Markowich

Abstract--The asymptotic behavior of the thermal equilibrium state of a bipolar quantum hydrodynamic model is considered. The quantum limit L ---, 0, L denoting a characteristic device length, is carried out rigorously. It shows that the classical assumption of charge neutrality at the boundary becomes invalid for ultra small semiconductor devices, whereas the assumption of vanishing boundary quantum effects will be confirmed. Furthermore, numerical simulations are presented, which give insight in the quantitative behavior.

The quantum hydrodynamic model is primary used for the simulation of resonant tunneling diodes. The current-voltage characteristics of these diodes show negative differential resistance (NDR) effects. For two simplified one-dimensional quantum models derived by means of asymptotic analysis, explicit

The resulting equations contain an arbitrary index parameter, denoted by n, and it is found that the case n = 1 correspon
