Optical scattering strength of fractal optical disordered media with varying fractal dimension is reported. The diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) technique is used to generate fractal samples in 2D and 3D, and fractal dimensions are…

Computer simulations are used to generate two-dimensional diffusion-limited deposits of dipoles. The structure of these deposits is analyzed by measuring some global quantities: the density of the deposit and the lateral correlation…

We study here the small-angle scattering structure factor for deterministic fat fractals in the reciprocal space. It is shown that fat fractals are exact self-similar in the range of iterations having the same values of the scaling factor,…

The geometric characteristics of dust clouds provide important information on the physical processes that structure such clouds. One of such characteristics is the $2D$ fractal dimension $D$ of a cloud projected onto the sky plane. In…

We use a spatially resolved cavity ring-down technique to show that the 2D eigenmode of an unstable optical cavity has a fractal pattern, i.e. it looks the same at different length scales. In agreement with theory, we find that this pattern…

We calculate the spectral dimension of a wide class of tree-like fractals by solving the random walk problem through a new analytical technique, based on invariance under generalized cutting-decimation transformations. These fractals are…
