    In this paper, we numerically investigate the chaotic behaviors of the fractional-order Chua's circuit with a piecewise-linear nonlinearity. We find that chaos exists in the fractional-order Chua's circuit with order less than 3. The lowest order we find to have chaos is 2.7 in the homogeneous fractional-order Chua's circuit and 2.8 in the unhomogeneous fractional-order Chua's circuit. Our results are validated by the existence of a positive Lyapunov exponent. A chaos synchronization method is also presented for synchronizing the homogeneous fractional-order chaotic Chua's systems. The approach, based on stability theory of fractional-order linear systems, is simple and theoretically rigorous. It does not require the computation of the conditional Lyapunov exponents. Simulation results are used to visualize and illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization method.
