Controllable chaotic attractors with special structures have great value in engineering applications. In this paper, the novel controllable chaotic attractors are generated by constructing parameter controlled index-2 saddle-foci in Chua’s system. The chaotic attractors simultaneously contain two types of topological units, namely scroll and wing. There are potential differences among index-2 saddle-foci, which can be confirmed by the differences among eigenvalues and coexisting attractors. We propose the formation mechanism of wing, that is, the particle located in a index-2 saddle-focus region with weaker potential field is influenced by other index-2 saddle-foci regions with stronger potential field, it will escape from the constraint of weaker potential field before forming a spiral motion and then only form wings. Based on the formation mechanism of wing, half-saddle-foci or regions without equilibrium points but close to half-saddle-foci are constructed to further weaken the attraction of potential field and generate controllable wings. The analog circuit experiments confirmed the results.
