Generation

Single-slit diffraction demonstrates the wave nature of light by showing how light bends and spreads when passing through an opening comparable to its wavelength. It produces a characteristic pattern with a bright central maximum and dimmer side fringes, which cannot be explained by treating light as particles traveling in straight lines. This phenomenon is fundamental to understanding the resolution limits of optical instruments and the wave-particle duality of electromagnetic radiation.
