Abstract

In this paper, we present a bipolar hydrodynamic model from semiconductor devices and plasmas, which takes the form of bipolar isentropic Euler–Poisson with electric field and frictional damping added to the momentum equations. We firstly prove the existence of the stationary solutions. Next, we present the global existence and the asymptotic behavior of smooth solutions to the initial boundary value problem for a one-dimensional case in a bounded domain. The result is shown by an elementary energy method. Compared with the corresponding initial data case, we find that the asymptotic state is the stationary solution.
