Abstract
Résumé

In this note we analyze the long time behavior of a drift-diffusion-Poisson system with a symmetric definite positive diffusion matrix, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. This system models the transport of electrons in semiconductor or plasma devices. By using a quadratic relative entropy obtained by keeping the lowest order term of the logarithmic relative entropy, we prove the exponential convergence to the equilibrium.

Dans cette note, nous analysons le comportement en temps long des solutions du système couplé dérive-diffusion-Poisson avec une matrice de diffusion définie positive et soumis à des conditions aux limites de Dirichlet. Ce système modélise le transport de charges dans des dispositifs à semiconducteurs ou à plasmas. En utilisant l'entropie relative développée à l'ordre 2, nous prouvons la convergence exponentielle des solutions vers l'équilibre.
