摘要
We propose a chaos generator using a resonant tunneling diode. It is a simple circuit consisting of a resonant tunneling diode, an inductor, and a capacitor. This circuit is found to output various kinds of signal patterns including chaos. The behavior of the circuit is studied by means of a bifurcation diagram. Though the chaos has several applications, we describe here the possibility of implementing a high-speed and low-power frequency divider in the bifurcation region. The operating principle is also confirmed using discrete devices.
