"The fractal properties of the transverse Talbot images are analysed with two well-known scaling methods, the wavelet transform modulus maxima (WTMM) and the wavelet transform multifractal detrended fluctuation anal- ysis (WT-MFDFA). We use the widths of the singularity spectra, ? = H ? min, as a characteristic feature of these Talbot images. The scaling exponents of the q moments are linear in q within the two methods, which proves the monofractality of the transverse diffractive paraxial field in the case of these images."
