The author discusses the convergence of a Petrov-Galerkin finite element scheme for the semiconductor diffusion equation \(-J'=-(\mu(\mu'- u\psi'))'=f\), the usual notation being employed. The scheme is based on a Scharfetter-Gummel approximation. A discrete Green function is obtained for each mesh node which can be normalised to test functions. An order estimate is obtained for the error at the nodes. The method is illustrated by modelling a semiconductor abrupt junction.
