In this work an optimal control problem for a stationary quantum drift diffusion (QDD) model is analyzed. This QDD model contains four space-dependent observables: The non-negative particle density of electrons, the electrostatic potential, the quantum quasi-Fermi potential and the current density. The goal is to optimize the shape of quantum barriers in a quantum diode. Existence of optimal solutions is proved. Moreover, first-order necessary optimality conditions are derived.
