Theoretical results are reported for the dynamical resistivity and free-carrier absorption from Fibonacci sequences of {delta}-doped layers in silicon. Distinct peaks develop, with increasing generation number, in the region of plasmon excitations and the spectra show self-similarity properties. Numerical results are presented for sequences with generation numbers 5, 10, and 15, corresponding to a total number of layers approximately equal to 10, 100, and 1000, respectively.
