Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We propose a chaos generator using a resonant tunneling diode. 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 frequency divider in the bifurcation region. The operating principle is also confirmed using discrete devices. Next, we studied operating margins of this circuit with respect to input signal distortions. It was shown by numerical simulation that the input signal distortions caused by harmonics toward the square wave and triangular wave have only a small effect on the frequency divider operation. This was confirmed using a test circuit consisting of discrete devices.
