In this paper,isentropic Euler-Poisson equations for the bipolar hydrodynamic model of semiconductor devices are considered. This model is as follows
{n1t+J1x=0,J1t+(J21n1+n1)x=n1E−J1,n2t+J2x=0,J2t+(J22n2+n2)x=−n2E−J2,Ex=n1−n2−D(x), | (1.1) |
here n1,n2,J1,J2 and E are the unknown functions of the space variable x∈[0,1] and time variable t≥0,representing the electron density,the hole density,the electron current density,the hole current density and the electric field respectively. The function D(x)>0,usually called the doping profile,stands for the density of impurities in semiconductor devices. In this paper,we assume the doping profile D(x) satisfies
D∗=supxD(x)≥infxD(x)=D∗. | (1.2) |
For the system (1.1),the initial-boundary conditions are described by
ni(x,0)=ni0(x)≥0,Ji(x,0)=Ji0(x),Ji(0,t)=Ji(1,t)=0,E(0,t)=E(1,t)=0, i=1,2 | (1.3) |
with the compatibility condition
Ji0(0)=Ji0(1)=0, i=1,2. | (1.4) |
When n2=J2=0 in (1.1),the bipolar model turns into the unipolar one,that is
{nt+Jx=0,Jt+(J2n+n)x=nE−J,Ex=n−D(x). | (1.5) |
Recently,many efforts are made on the systems (1.1) and (1.4) to considering the large time behavior of their weak entropy solutions. With the smallness assumption on the amplitude of background electron current,[1] first proved the uniformly bounded density weak entropy solutions of the unipolar hydrodynamic model (1.4),decay exponentially to the stationary solutions. [3] considered a similar problem on the bipolar model with a non-flat doping profile. However,the uniform bounded condition
0≤ni(x,t)≤C0 | (1.6) |
in [1] ([3])is stiff and still be open although it seems natural from physical point of view. For example,the L∞ bounds obtained in [2, 4, 7] grow with time. In this paper,instead of proving the hard bone (1.6),we will give a large time behavior framework for density time-increasing entropy solutions to the bipolar hydrodynamic model (1.1)−(1.3). The related work on unipolar model,we can see the reference [6]. We make some preparation work before to introduce the primary result.
The vector function
ηet+qex+J21n1+J22n2−J1E+J2E≤0 | (1.7) |
in the sense of distribution. And
{ηe(n1,n2,J1,J2)=J212n1+n21+J222n2+n22,qe(n1,n2,J1,J2)=J312n21+2n1J1+J322n22+2n2J2. | (1.8) |
The corresponding stationary system of problem (1.1)-(1.4) is
{N1x=N1E,N2x=−N2E,Ex=N1−N2−D(x) | (1.9) |
with the boundary condition
E(0)=E(1)=0. | (1.10) |
In reference [5],the author give the following existence and uniqueness Theorem,that is theorem AProblem (1.9)-(1.10) has an unique stationary solution (N1,N2,E) satisfying
1) D∗≤N1−N2≤D∗ and there exist positive constant N∗ and N∗ such that 0<N∗≤N1,N2≤N∗;
2) D∗−D∗≤E,Ex≤D∗−D∗.
This following Theorem is main result of this paper.
Theorem 1(Large time behavior framework). Suppose (n1,n2,J1,J2,E) be any L∞ weak entropy solution to problem (1.1)−(1.4) satisfying
0≤ni(x,t)≤Mtα, M≥0, 0≤α≤2, | (2.1) |
(N1,N2,E)(x,t) be the unique stationary smooth solution. If
(E−E)(x,0)∈L2(R), 2∑i=1(J2i2ni+(ni−Ni)2)(x,0)∈L1(R), | (2.2) |
||n1−n2−N1+N2−D(x)||L∞<√||8(N1+N2)(x)||L∞, | (2.3) |
then there exist positive constants T(α),C,and ˜C such that
∫10[(E−ε)2(x,t)+2∑i=1(J2i2ni+(ni−Ni)2)(x,t)]dx≤Ce−˜Ct2−a2∫10[(E−ε)2(x,0)+2∑i=1(J2i2ni+(ni−Ni)2)(x,0)]dx | (2.4) |
for any t>T(α).}
With less regularity of the L∞ entropy solutions,we can only obtain zero-order estimates. To get the exponential time decay estimate between the entropy solution and the corresponding stationary solution,we need explore the entropy dissipation.
In this part,we will prove the large time behavior framework for the L∞ entropy solutions,in which the bounds of densities may increase with time,that is Theorem [1] Specifically speaking,for any global entropy solutions of (1.1)−(1.4) with the densities satisfy (2.1),we get an exponential decay rate for the electric field and the relative entropy between the entropy solution and the stationary solution. To this purpose,we introduce new variables
yi(x,t)=−∫x0(ni(s,t)−Ni(s))ds i=1,2. | (3.1) |
Naturally,yi(i=1,2) is absolutely continuous in x for a.e t>0. Moreover,we have
yix=−(ni−Ni), yit=Ji,y2−y1=E−E, yi(0,t)=yi(1,t)=0, i=1,2. | (3.2) |
From (1.1) and the corresponding stationary equation,we get yi (i=1,2) admits the equations
yitt+(y2itni)x−yixx+yit=(−1)i+1(niE−NiE). | (3.3) |
Multiplying yi with (3.3) integrating over the spatial domain (0,1) and then adding the results together for i=1,2,we have
2∑i=1[ddt∫10(yiyit+12y2i)dx−∫10(y2itni)yixdx+∫10y2ixdx−∫10y2itdx]=2∑i=1(−1)i+1∫10[Ni(y2−y1)yi+Ex2y2i]dx. | (3.4) |
We calculate that
2∑i=1[(−1)i+1∫10Ni(y2−y1)yi+Ex2y2i]dx=(−1)i+1∫10n1−N1−n2+N2−D(x)2y2idx−∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx, | (3.5) |
then (3.4) turns into
ddt∫102∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)dx+2∑i=1∫10y2ixdx+∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx=2∑i=1∫10Niniy2itdx+∫10n1−N1−n2+N2−D(x)2(y21−y22)dx. | (3.6) |
Noticing
|yi(x)|=|∫x0yis(s)ds|≤x12(∫x0y2isds)12≤x12(∫10y2isds)12, | (3.7) |
then we have
||yi||2L2=∫10y2idx≤∫10x∫10y2isdsdx≤||yix||2L2∫10xdx=12||yix||2L2. | (3.8) |
While if (1.10) satisfies,we have
∫10|n1−N1−n2+N2−D(x)2(y1−y2)(y1+y2)|dx≤(1−δ)∫10(y1+y2)2dx+1(1−δ)∫10(y1−y2)2(n1−n2−N1+N2−D(x))216dx<(1−δ)∫10(y1+y2)2dx+(1−˜δ)∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx, |
(3.9) |
for some small positive constant δ and δ=δ1−δ<1. To see this,let ε=2δ>0,we have
1(1−δ)∫10(y1−y2)2(n1−n2−N1+N2−D(x))216dx<1(1−δ)∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx−ε(1−δ)∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx=1−2δ(1−δ)∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx. | (3.10) |
Thus (3.6) turns into
ddt∫102∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)dx+δ2∫102∑i=1(y2ix+y2i)dx+δ∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx≤2∑i=1∫10Niniy2itdx. | (3.11) |
Now we explore the entropy dissipation estimate. To this end,we introduce the relative entropy-entropy flux pair to make full use of the entropy inequality.
The relative entropy-entropy flux are:
η∗(x,t)=2∑i=1(J2i2ni+n2i−N2i−2Ni(ni−Ni))(x,t)=(ηe−2∑i=1Qi)(x,t)≥0, | (3.12) |
q∗(x,t)=2∑i=1(J3i2n2i+2niJi−2NiJi)(x,t)=(qe−2∑i=1Pi)(x,t), | (3.13) |
where
Qi=N2i+2Ni(ni−Ni), Pi=2NiJi, |
ηe and qe are the entropy-entropy flux pair defined in (1.7).
Using the entropy inequality,we have the following estimates on the relative entropy-entropy flux pair η*,q*:
0≥ηet+qex+J21n1+J22n2−J1E+J2E=η∗t+q∗x+J21n1+J22n2−J1E+J2E+J1E−J2E=η∗t+q∗x+y21tn1+y22tn2+12(y2−y1)2t, | (3.14) |
that is
ddt∫10(η∗+12(y2−y1)2)dx+∫10(y21tn1+y22tn2)dx≤0. | (3.15) |
The estimates (3.11) and (3.15) are elemental. Any L∞ weak entropy solutions satisfying (1.10) have these two estimates. Let λ(t)=Mtα2+N∗+1,where M and N∗ are the constants in (2.1) and theorem A.
Multiplying (3.15) by λ(t) and adding the result to (3.11),we obtain
ddt∫10[λη∗+λ2(y2−y1)2)+2∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)]dx−αM2tα2−1∫10(η∗+(y2−y1)22)dx+δ2∫102∑i=1(y2ix+y2i)dx+δ∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx+∫10[(λ−N1)y21tn1+(λ−N1)y22tn2]dx≤0. | (3.16) |
Since
2∑i=1δ4∫10y2ixdx+δ2∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx+∫10Mtα2(y21tn1+y22tn2)dx>αM2tα2−1∫10(η∗+(y2−y1)22)dx | (3.17) |
for big enough t>t∗. \footnote{since we consider the large time behavior,without loss of generality,we always assume t>t∗. Then (3.16) turns into
ddt∫10[λη∗+λ2(y2−y1)2)+2∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)]dx+C1∫102∑i=1(y2ix+y2i)dx+∫10N1+N22(y1−y2)2dx+∫10[(y21tn1+y22tn2]dx≤0, | (3.18) |
where
Since
λη∗+λ2(y2−y1)2+2∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)≤2∑i=1(√niy2i2+y2it2√ni+y2i2+λy2it2ni+λO(1)2∑i=1y2ix)+λ2(y2−y1)2≤O(1)λC1[2∑i=1(y2ix+y2i)+N1+N22(y1−y2)2+(y21tn1+y22tn2)], | (3.19) |
then there exists positive constant C2 such that (3.18) turns into
ddt∫10[λη∗+λ2(y2−y1)2)+2∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)]dx+1C2t−α2∫10[λη∗+λ2(y2−y1)2)+2∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)]dx≤0. | (3.20) |
Let
F(x,t)≤e−C3t2−α2F(x,0) | (3.21) |
for some positive constant C3>0.
On the other hand,noticing
ddt∫10[λη∗+λ2(y2−y1)2)+2∑i=1(yiyit+y2i2)]dx≥∫10[2∑i=1(−√niy2i2−y2it2√ni+λy2it2ni+y2i2+λO(1)y2iX)+λ(y2−y1)22]dx≥C4∫10[η∗+2∑i=1y2i+(y2−y1)2)]dx | (3.22) |
for some constant C4>0,we have
∫10[η∗+2∑i=1y2i+(y2−y1)2)]dx≤C5e−C3t2−α2∫10[η∗+2∑i=1y2i+(y2−y1)2)](x,0)dx | (3.23) |
for some constant C5>0. Thus,we prove Theorem 1.
The assumption (1.10) is important to get relation (3.11). However,if we suppose
maxi=1,2|Ni−ni+(−1)i+1D(x)|<4, | (4.1) |
(3.11) can be obtained too. To see this,we calculate
∫10n1−N1−n2+N2−D(x)2(y21−y22)dx=12∫10(y2x−y1x−D(x))(y21−y22)dx=12[∫10(y2x−D(x))y21dx+∫10(y1x+D(x))y22dx]<2∫10(y21+y22)dx. | (4.2) |
It is worthy to point out that (4.1) indicates that ni is bounded with respect to x and t. While the assumption (1.10) permits the bounds of ni (i=1,2) grow with time.
