Solution

The period of diffused light between sunset and complete darkness is called twilight.

Explanation:

Twilight is the period of diffused light between sunset and complete darkness. It occurs when the Sun is just below the horizon and the sky is still partially illuminated. This period is commonly known as dusk when it happens after sunset, but twilight is the more general term for both the evening and morning light phases.
