Relaxation and domain current oscillations in undoped semi-insulating GaAs were observed at room temperature for a broad range of voltage applied to a sample. The oscillations were characterized by a reconstruction of an attractor of the system. An analysis of the attractor helped to discriminate between the two likes of oscillations. A transition from one like of oscillations to the other was connected with a chaotization of the current. A chaotic state of the system was analyzed by calculations of fractal dimensions Dq for -0.6 < g < 40 and the f(α) function.
