Abstract
The Cantor set character of the electronic energy spectrum of a one-dimensional quasi-crystals in the form of a Fibonacci sequence is analysed under the tight-binding approximation by means of a renormalisation procedure. The electronic structure of quasi-periodic superlattices is also studied with the conclusion that there scarcely exists any notable difference from periodic superlattices.
