We investigate stationary energy models in heterostructures consisting of continuity equations for all involved species, of a Poisson equation for the electrostatic potential and of an energy balance equation. The resulting strongly coupled system of elliptic differential equations has to be supplemented by mixed boundary conditions. If the boundary data are compatible with thermodynamic equilibrium then there exists a unique steady state. We prove that in a suitable neighbourhood of such a thermodynamic equilibrium there exists a unique steady state, too. Our proof is based on the Implicit Function Theorem and on regularity results for systems of strongly coupled elliptic differential equations with mixed boundary conditions and non-smooth data.
