After establishing the method of constructing a class of one-dimensional (1D) Fibonacci-class quasiperiodic (FC(n)) ferroelectric domains system, we have studied the properties of the electric field of the second harmonic generation (SHG) by means of the small-signal approximation in the case of the vertically transmission. It was found that only the second harmonic light (SHL) peaks which were indexed by two special integers q and p would be the brightest and the spectra whose positions were decided by successive FC(n) integers qF and pF were perfect self-similar without considering the dispersive effect of the refractive index on SHL. The effect of the vacancies for some special spectral lines was also studied generally. The analytic results were confirmed by the numerical simulations.
