contents We give a generalization of Lagarias' formula for diffraction by ideal crystals, and we apply it to the lattice case, in preparation for addressing the problem of quasicrystals and complex dimensions posed by Lapidus and van Frankenhuijsen concerning the quasiperiodic properties of the set of complex dimensions of any nonlattice self-similar fractal string. More specifically, in this paper, we consider the case of the complex dimensions of a lattice (rather than of a nonlattice) self-similar string and show that the corresponding diffraction measure exists, is unique, and is given by a suitable $\textit{continuous}$ analogue of a discrete Dirac comb. We also obtain more general results concerning the autocorrelation measures and diffraction measures of generalized idealized fractals associated to possibly degenerate lattices and the corresponding extension of the Poisson Summation Formula.
