This article presents a brief survey devoted to the interplay between diffraction and operator theory, particularly between the so-called canonical diffraction problems (exemplified by Sommerfeld half-plane problems) on one hand and operator factorisation theory on the other hand. It is shown how operator factorisation concepts appear in a natural way from applications and how they can help to find solutions rigorously in case of well-posed problems or how to normalize problems by an adequate change of function spaces.
