The drift-diffusion system describes the semi-classical transport of free electrons and holes in a self-consistent electric field using a drift-diffusion approximation. It became the standard model to describe the current flow in semiconductor devices such as diodes, transistors, LEDs, solar cells and lasers, as well as quantum nanostructures and organic semiconductors.
