Evidence for universal chaotic behavior of a driven nonlinear oscillator

  • 1. Materials and Molecular Research Division, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, Berkeley, California 94720

Description

A bifurcation diagram for a driven nonlinear semiconductor oscillator is measured directly, showing successive subharmonic bifurcations to f/32, onset of chaos, noise band merging, and extensive noise-free windows. The overall diagram closely resembles that computed for the logistic model. Measured values of universal numbers are reported, including effects of added noise
