Abstract Electromagnetic wave interactions with a triadic Cantor target are investigated as an example of diffraction by fractal apertures. Of interest is the evolution of diffraction pattern with fractal growth for these self‐similar structures, and the development of efficient methods of calculation. It is found that such structures possess self‐similar diffraction patterns and that simple analytic solutions can be found for these geometries. The solutions also exhibit a sense of self‐similarity in their computation. © 1992 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
