Sumario:The one-dimensional stationary full hydrodynamic model for semiconductor devices with non-isentropic pressure is studied. This model consists of the equations for the electron density, electron temperature, and electric field in a bounded domain supplemented with boundary conditions. The existence of a classical subsonic solution with positive particle density and positive temperature is shown in two situations: non-constant and constant heat conductivities. Moreover, we prove uniqueness of a classical solution in the latter case. The existence proofs are based on elliptic estimates, Stampacchia truncation methods, and fixed-point arguments. © 2001 Academic Press.
