contents In this paper, we establish hypocoercivity for the semiconductor Boltzmann equation with the presence of an external electrical potential under the Maxwell boundary condition. We will construct a modified entropy Lyapunov functional, which is proved to be equivalent to some weighted norm of the corresponding function space. We then show that the entropy functional dissipates along the solutions, and the exponential decay to the equilibrium state of the system follows by a Gronwall type inequality. We also generalize our arguments to situations where uncertainties in our model arise,and the hypocoercivity method we have established is adopted to analyze the regularity of the solutions along the random space.
