Exploitation of the Maximum Entropy Principle in Mathematical Modeling of Charge Transport in Semiconductors

In the last two decades, the Maximum Entropy Principle (MEP) has been successfully employed to construct macroscopic models able to describe the charge and heat transport in semiconductor devices. These models are obtained, starting from the Boltzmann transport equations, for the charge and the phon...
