Summary:Abstract: "The carrier transport in a semiconductor device is described by the classical drift-diffusion equations, which can be discretized by the method of Baliga-Patankar [6]. However, the computation of the minority charge densities is sensitive with respect to round-off errors, if the Baliga-Patankar discretization scheme is used. This will be shown by a 2-D counterexample. A new, stable discretization scheme will be proposed which preserves the advantage of the Baliga-Patankar discretization scheme: No restrictions on the angles of the finite- elements in the mesh need to be imposed."
