What is History and Meaning of Diffraction about?

Diffraction refers to the bending and spreading of waves when they encounter an obstacle or opening. It occurs when a wave passes an object that is comparable in size to the wavelength of the wave. Francesco Grimaldi first coined the term "diffraction" and recorded accurate observations of the phenomenon in 1660. The Huygens-Fresnel principle describes diffraction as each point in a propagating wavefront acting as a spherical wavelet, with the interference of these wavelets producing characteristic banding
