From early 20th century.
The concept was clarified chiefly by French mathematician Élie Cartan (1869–1951). In his fundamental paper, 1899, Sur certaines expressions différentielles et le problème de Pfaff, Annales Scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure (3), tome 16, Cartan used the (French) term expression différentielle, and in his 1922, Leçons sur les invariants intégraux, Hermann, he used the terms exterior differential form and exterior derivative.
