Hi,
Tempfile and Datafile are the OS files which are actualy bind with a temporary tablespace in oracle. While creating a dictionary managed temporary tablespace, you have to use DATAFILE clause to specify the files and while creating locally managed temporary tablespace you have to use TEMPFILE clause to specify the files.
For more info about dictionary managed and locally managed tablespaces refer oracle doc.
