Weak solutions to one-dimensional quantum drift-diffusion equations for semiconductors

The weak solutions to the stationary quantum drift-diffusion equations （QDD） for semiconductor devices are investigated in one space dimension. The proofs are based on a reformulation of the system as a fourth-order elliptic boundary value problem by using an exponential variable transformation. The techniques of a priori estimates and Leray-Schauder＇s fixed-point theorem are employed to prove the existence. Furthermore, the uniqueness of solutions and the semiclassical limit δ→0 from QDD to the classical drift-diffusion （DD） model are studied.

Normalized Solutions of Nonlinear Choquard Equations with Nonconstant Potential

In this paper,we mainly focus on a type of nonlinear Choquard equations with nonconstant potential.Under appropriate hypotheses on potential function and nonlinear terms,we prove that the above Choquard equation with prescribed 2-norm has some normalized solutions by introducing variational methods.

Two Second-Order Ecient Numerical Schemes for the Boussinesq Equations

In this paper,we construct two fully decoupled,second-order semi-discrete numerical schemes for the Boussinesq equations based on the scalar auxiliary variable(SAV)approach.By introducing a scalar auxiliary variable,the original Boussinesq system is transformed into an equivalent one.Then we discretize it using the second-order backward di erentiation formula(BDF2)and Crank-Nicolson(CN)to obtain two second-order time-advanced schemes.In both numerical schemes,a pressure-correction method is employed to decouple the velocity and pressure.These two schemes possess the desired property that they can be fully decoupled with satisfying unconditional stability.We rigorously prove both the unconditional stability and unique solvability of the discrete schemes.Furthermore,we provide detailed implementations of the decoupling procedures.Finally,various 2D numerical simulations are performed to verify the accuracy and energy stability of the proposed schemes.

The Semiclassical Limit in the Quantum Drift-Diffusion Equations with Isentropic Pressure

The semiclassical limit in the transient quantum drift-diffusion equations with isentropic pressure in one space dimension is rigorously proved. The equations are supplemented with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. It is shown that the semiclassical limit of this solution solves the classical drift-diffusion model. In the meanwhile, the global existence of weak solutions is proved.

This paper is devoted to the long time behavior for the Drift-diffusion semiconductor equations. It is proved that the dynamical system has a compact, connected and maximal attractor when the mobilities are constants and generation-recombination term is the Auger model; as well as the semigroup S(t) denned by the solutions map is differential. Moreover the upper bound of Hausdorff dimension for the attractor is given.

An Extended Numerical Method by Stancu Polynomials for Solution of Integro-Differential Equations Arising in Oscillating Magnetic Fields

In this study, the Bernstein collocation method has been expanded to Stancu collocation method for numerical solution of the charged particle motion for certain configurations of oscillating magnetic fields modelled by a class of linear integro-differential equations. As the method has been improved, the Stancu polynomials that are generalization of the Bernstein polynomials have been used. The method has been tested on a physical problem how the method can be applied. Moreover, numerical results of the method have been compared with the numerical results of the other methods to indicate the efficiency of the method.

Theoretical study of particle and energy balance equations in locally bounded plasmas

In this study,new particle and energy balance equations have been developed to predict the electron temperature and density in locally bounded plasmas.Classical particle and energy balance equations assume that all plasma within a reactor is completely confined only by the reactor walls.However,in industrial plasma reactors for semiconductor manufacturing,the plasma is partially confined by internal reactor structures.We predict the effect of the open boundary area(A′_(L,eff))and ion escape velocity(u_(i))on electron temperature and density by developing new particle and energy balance equations.Theoretically,we found a low ion escape velocity(u_(i)/u_(B)≈0.2)and high open boundary area(A′_(L,eff)/A_(T,eff)≈0.6)to result in an approximately 38%increase in electron density and an 8%decrease in electron temperature compared to values in a fully bounded reactor.Additionally,we suggest that the velocity of ions passing through the open boundary should exceedω_(pi)λ_(De)under the condition E^(2)_(0)?(Φ/λ_(De))^(2).

Matrix Riccati Equations in Optimal Control

In this paper, the matrix Riccati equation is considered. There is no general way for solving the matrix Riccati equation despite the many fields to which it applies. While scalar Riccati equation has been studied thoroughly, matrix Riccati equation of which scalar Riccati equations is a particular case, is much less investigated. This article proposes a change of variable that allows to find explicit solution of the Matrix Riccati equation. We then apply this solution to Optimal Control.

THE STABILITY OF BOUSSINESQ EQUATIONS WITH PARTIAL DISSIPATION AROUND THE HYDROSTATIC BALANCE

This paper is devoted to understanding the stability of perturbations around the hydrostatic equilibrium of the Boussinesq system in order to gain insight into certain atmospheric and oceanographic phenomena.The Boussinesq system focused on here is anisotropic,and involves only horizontal dissipation and thermal damping.In the 2D case R^(2),due to the lack of vertical dissipation,the stability and large-time behavior problems have remained open in a Sobolev setting.For the spatial domain T×R,this paper solves the stability problem and gives the precise large-time behavior of the perturbation.By decomposing the velocity u and temperatureθinto the horizontal average(ū,θ)and the corresponding oscillation(ū,θ),we can derive the global stability in H~2 and the exponential decay of(ū,θ)to zero in H^(1).Moreover,we also obtain that(ū_(2),θ)decays exponentially to zero in H^(1),and thatū_(1)decays exponentially toū_(1)(∞)in H^(1)as well;this reflects a strongly stratified phenomenon of buoyancy-driven fluids.In addition,we establish the global stability in H^(3)for the 3D case R^(3).

The Maxwell-Heaviside Equations Explained by the Theory of Informatons

In the articles “Newtons Law of Universal Gravitation Explained by the Theory of Informatons” and “The Gravitational Interaction between Moving Mass Particles Explained by the Theory of Informatons” the gravitational interaction has been explained by the hypothesis that information carried by informatons is the substance of gravitational fields, i.e. the medium that the interaction in question makes possible. From the idea that “information carried by informatons” is its substance, it has been deduced that—on the macroscopic level—a gravitational field manifests itself as a dual entity, always having a field- and an induction component (Egand Bg) simultaneously created by their common sources. In this article we will mathematically deduce the Maxwell-Heaviside equations from the kinematics of the informatons. These relations describe on the macroscopic level how a gravitational field (Eg, Bg) is generated by whether or not moving masses and how spatial and temporal changes of Egand Bgare related. We show that there is no causal link between Egand Bg.

THE SMOOTHING EFFECT IN SHARP GEVREY SPACE FOR THE SPATIALLY HOMOGENEOUS NON-CUTOFF BOLTZMANN EQUATIONS WITH A HARDPOTENTIAL

In this article, we study the smoothing effect of the Cauchy problem for the spatially homogeneous non-cutoff Boltzmann equation for hard potentials. It has long been suspected that the non-cutoff Boltzmann equation enjoys similar regularity properties as to whose of the fractional heat equation. We prove that any solution with mild regularity will become smooth in Gevrey class at positive time, with a sharp Gevrey index, depending on the angular singularity. Our proof relies on the elementary L^(2) weighted estimates.

Besov Estimates for Sub-Elliptic Equations in the Heisenberg Group

In this article, we deal with weak solutions to non-degenerate sub-elliptic equations in the Heisenberg group, and study the regularities of solutions. We establish horizontal Calderón-Zygmund type estimate in Besov spaces with more general assumptions on coefficients for both homogeneous equations and non-homogeneous equations. This study of regularity estimates expands the Calderón-Zygmund theory in the Heisenberg group.
