On inverse problems for semiconductor equations

This paper is devoted to the investigation of inverse problems related to stationary drift-diffusion equations modeling semiconductor devices. In this context we analyze several identification problems corresponding to different types of measurements, where the parameter to be reconstructed is an inhomogeneity in the PDE model (doping profile). For a particular type of measurement (related to the voltage-current map) we consider special cases of drift-diffusion equations, where the inverse problems reduces to a classical inverse conductivity problem. A numerical experiment is presented for one of these special situations (linearized unipolar case).

A Mann iterative regularization method for elliptic Cauchy problems

We investigate the Cauchy problem for linear elliptic operators with $C^\infty$-coefficients at a regular set $Ω\subset R^2$, which is a classical example of an ill-posed problem. The Cauchy data are given at the manifold $Γ\subset \partialΩ$ and our goal is to reconstruct the trace of the $H^1(Ω)$ solution of an elliptic equation at $\partial Ω/ Γ$. The method proposed here composes the segmenting Mann iteration with a fixed point equation associated with the elliptic Cauchy problem. Our algorithm generalizes the iterative method developed by Maz'ya et al., who proposed a method based on solving successive well-posed mixed boundary value problems. We analyze the regularizing and convergence properties both theoretically and numerically.
