AbstractWe present a novel correlation scheme to characterize the morphology of fractal and hierarchical patterns beyond traditional scaling. The method consists of analysing correlations between more than two-points in logarithmic coordinates. This technique has several advantages: i) It can be used to quantify the currently vague concept of morphology; ii) It allows to distinguish between different signatures of structures with similar fractal dimension but different morphologies already for relatively small systems; iii) The method is sensitive to oscillations in logarithmic coordinates, which are both admissible solutions for renormalization equations and which appear in many branching patterns (e.g., noise-reduced diffusion-limited-aggregation and bronchial structures); iv) The methods yields information on corrections to scaling from the asymptotic behavior, which is very useful in finite size analysis. Markovian processes are calculated exactly and several structures are analyzed by this method to demonstrate its advantages.

We report the observation of fractal patterns in C60-tetracyanoquinodimethane thin films. The fractal patterns and their microscopic features are described and characterized. The fractal dimension was determined to be 1.69 ± 0.07. According to the characterization results, the observed fractals are compared to the cluster-diffusion-limited-aggregation model. The growth of the fractal patterns in the thin films is also in terms of the existing long-range correlation.

Simulation Results

This paper presents a computer model of diffusion limited aggregation (DLA) in percolation cluster. Simulation of the aggregation clusters in percolation cluster with varying occupancy probability is performed, and their fractal dimension and multifractal spectrum are obtained. The simulation results show that the percolation cluster has stronger effects on the aggregation clusters' pattern structure when occupancy probability is smaller. The dimension Df of aggregation clusters increases together with the increase of occupancy probability. Furthermore, the multifractal spectra f(α) curve becomes higher and the range of singularity α wilder. The bigger the occupancy probability is, the more irregular and non-uniform the aggregation clusters becomes.
