You are right.My answer is yes
In the exact same way that a diffraction grating (transmission) does. As long as the spacing is of order a micron, you will have noticeable diffraction in the visible range.does it mean that the light can be bended due to this? I mean how come?
No, not all fabrics are suitable for use as a diffraction grating. The fabric must have a regular pattern of closely spaced lines or slits to act as a diffraction grating. Silk, nylon, and polyester are commonly used fabrics for this purpose.
A fabric can act as a diffraction grating because the closely spaced lines or slits on the fabric cause light to diffract, or bend, as it passes through. This creates a pattern of diffracted light, similar to the effect seen when light passes through a traditional diffraction grating.
Fabric diffraction gratings are commonly used in educational settings to demonstrate the principles of diffraction and to study the properties of light. They can also be used in scientific experiments and in optical devices, such as spectrometers.
No, the spacing of the lines or slits on a fabric diffraction grating will determine the wavelengths of light that can be diffracted. Different fabrics may have different spacing, allowing them to diffract different wavelengths of light. It is important to choose the appropriate fabric for the desired wavelength range.
A fabric can be tested for its suitability as a diffraction grating by shining a laser or a bright light source through it and observing the diffraction pattern. If the fabric creates a clear and distinct pattern of diffracted light, it can be used as a diffraction grating.
