Based on numerical modeling it has been found that if self-similarity (which often connects with the Golden proportions) is present in structures of Fibonacci gratings and multilayer systems, it appears in their optical characteristics. Properties of Fibonacci optical structures have been compared with those of other aperiodic systems. It has been shown that structures based on the Golden and Silver means have highly related optical properties.
