Summary
We consider a linear electric network which contains a one-dimensional bipolar semiconductor device. The device is modeled by steady-state drift-diffusion equations. We prove a priori estimates which ensure existence of solutions to this coupled problem. A brief sketch of the existence proof is reported.
