Wave Propagation in the Cantor-Set Media: Chaos from Fractal

preprint2007arXivOpen access

Abstract

Propagation of waves in the Cantor-set media is investigated by a renormalization-group type method. We find fixed points for complete reflection, T∗=0T^*=0, and for complete transmission, T∗=1T^*=1. In addition, the wave numbers for which transmission coefficients show chaotic behaviors are reported. The results obtained are for optical waves, and they can be tested in optical experiments. Our method could be applied to any wave propagation through the Cantor set.
