These four equations, using the appropriate boundary conditions, can be solved to give current and potential distributions, and concentration profiles. Electrode kinetics would enter as part of the boundary conditions. The solution of these equations is not easy and often involves detailed numerical work. Electroneutrahty (eq. 28) is not strictly correct. More properly, equation 28 should be replaced with Poisson s equation... 

These do not contain the variable t (time) exphcitly accordingly, their solutions represent equihbrium configurations. Laplace s equation corresponds to a natural equilibrium, while Poisson s equation corresponds to an equilibrium under the influence of an external force of density proportional to g(x, y). 

These early results of Coulomb and his contemporaries led to the full development of classical electrostatics and electrodynamics in the nineteenth cenmry, culminating with Maxwell s equations. We do not consider electrodynamics at all in this chapter, and our discussion of electrostatics is necessarily brief. However, we need to introduce Gauss law and Poisson s equation, which are consequences of Coulomb s law. 

Poisson s equation is the pointwise form of this latter equation V V( )(r) = -47tp(r)... 

Although the continuum model of the ion could be analyzed by Gauss law together with spherical symmetry, in order to treat more general continuum models of electrostatics such as solvated proteins we need to consider media that have a position-specific permittivity e(r). For these a more general variant of Poisson s equation holds ... 

In the simplest case of one-dimensional steady flow in the x direction, there is a parallel between Eourier s law for heat flowrate and Ohm s law for charge flowrate (i.e., electrical current). Eor three-dimensional steady-state, potential and temperature distributions are both governed by Laplace s equation. The right-hand terms in Poisson s equation are (.Qy/e) = (volumetric charge density/permittivity) and (Qp // ) = (volumetric heat generation rate/thermal conductivity). The respective units of these terms are (V m ) and (K m ). Representations of isopotential and isothermal surfaces are known respectively as potential or temperature fields. Lines of constant potential gradient ( electric field lines ) normal to isopotential surfaces are similar to lines of constant temperature gradient ( lines of flow ) normal to... 

The SSW form an ideal expansion set as their shape is determined by the crystal structure. Hence only a few are required. This expansion can be formulated in both real and reciprocal space, which should make the method applicable to non periodic systems. When formulated in real space all the matrix multiplications and inversions become 0(N). This makes the method comparably fast for cells large than the localisation length of the SSW. In addition once the expansion is made, Poisson s equation can be solved exactly, and the integrals over the intersitital region can be calculated exactly.

The device model describes transport in the organic device by the time-dependent continuity equation, with a drift-diffusion form for the current density, coupled to Poisson s equation. To be specific, consider single-carrier structures with holes as the dominant carrier type. In this case,...

The statement of the Dirichlet difference problem providing a higher-order approximation. On the basis of the cross scheme it is possible to construct a scheme with the error of approximation 0( h j ) or 0 h ) on a solution in the case of a square (cube) grid. In order to raise the order of approximation, we exploit the fact that u = u x) is a solution of Poisson s equation...
