摘要
As an important model in quantum semiconductor devices, the SchrSdinger-Poisson equations have generated widespread interests in both analysis and numerical simulations in recent years. In this paper, we present Gaussian beam methods for the numerical simulation of the one-dimensional Schrodinger-Poisson equations. The Gaussian beam methods for high frequency waves outperform the geometrical optics method in that the former are accurate even around caustics. The purposes of the paper are first to develop the Gaussian beam methods, based on our previous methods for the linear SchrSdinger equation, for the Schrodinger-Poisson equations, and then check their validity for this weakly-nonlinear system.
