Résumé

We present a well-posedness study of a two-band envelope function model in the Wigner formalism. It is obtained from a multiband Schrödinger-like system for the conduction and the valence band envelope functions, derived by O.Morandi and M.Modugno, and describes the mixed-states of an open quantum system. It consists of four coupled equations for the unknown quasi-distribution functions. We include a non-linearly coupling with the Poisson equation and consider the unknown functions defined in a one-dimensional, bounded spatial domain with time-dependent ``inflow'' boundary conditions. We will prove the existence and uniqueness of a global-in-time, classical solution. [DOI: 10.1685/CSC06107] About DOI
