Abstract

An inductance-resistance diode circuit with square-wave input shows period-doubling and chaotic behaviors similar to a circuit with sinusoidal-wave input. These near-resonance phenomena using a fast-recovery diode agree well with our theoretical model that includes neither diffusion capacitance nor reverse recovery time but only includes the varactor characteristics of the junction capacitance. Computer solutions and experiments show only period-doubling 2T bifurcations which agree very well with each other.
