Diffraction of Light
Diffraction of light is a phenomenon where light waves bend around corners or pass through an aperture and spread out. This bending is known as diffraction. The diffraction of light can be observed in various situations, such as when light passes through a narrow slit or aperture or when it reflects on a thin film of oil on water or off the surfaces of a soap bubble.

Wave Optics
Wave optics is a branch of physics that studies various phenomena such as interference, diffraction, and polarization. It involves the behavior of light and its interaction with different mediums, leading to studying wavefronts, waves normal, coherent and incoherent sources, and other related concepts.
In this article, we will have a comprehensive study of Wave Optics, including its theories, concepts, and more.
