description

An experimental device to show in a single display all the diffraction patterns generated by a 1D fractal structure is proposed. It is found that in addition to being the optimum display to see the evolution of the diffracted field through free space, some interesting features, such as continuous evaluation of self-similarity from the object to the far field, can be obtained experimentally.
