Abstract

Scattering cross sections are obtained for scattering of waves from one-dimensional lattices chosen as simplistic models of Cantor-like sets. The self-similar geometry is described in terms of a fractal dimension. A parametric dependence of the cross-section on the fractal dimension is proposed. The average wavefunction method is used to calculate the differential scattering cross section. The integrated cross section shows a fractional power-law dependence on the wave-vector of the incoming wave. Results are presented for a wide range of energies and two different regimes exhibiting different fractal behaviour are observed.
