Abstract

A hydrodynamic subband model for semiconductors is formulated by closing the moment system derived from the Schrödinger-Poisson-Boltzmann equations on the basis the maximum entropy principle. Explicit closure relations for fluxes and production terms are obtained taking into account scattering of electrons with acoustic and nonpolar optical phonons and surface scattering.
