This thesis concerns the generation and characterisation of optical fractals. Chapter 1 presents a brief introduction to fractals and fractal dimensions, and then a review of contexts where fractal concepts have arisen in optics. These contexts are classified in terms of whether the fractal-generating mechanisms at work are linear or nonlinear.
