Abstract

The method of numerical Fourier analysis is used to investigate the fractal properties of 2D objects with micrometer–centimeter sizes. This numerical method simulates the small-angle light scattering experiment. Different geometric 2D-regular fractals, such as the Sierpinski carpet, Sierpinski triangle, Koch snowflake, and Vishek snowflake, are studied. We can divide 2D fractals, by analogy with 3D fractals, into “plane” and “boundary” fractals with fractal dimensions lying in the intervals from 1 to 2 and from 2 to 3, respectively. For an object with a smooth boundary, i.e., a circle, the model small-angle scattering curve decreases according to the power law q–3, where q is the momentum transferred.
