Spatiotemporal vortices of light
featuring transverse orbital angular momentum (OAM) and energy circulation in the spatiotemporal domain
have received increasing attention recently. The experimental realization of the controllable generation of spatiotemporal vortices triggers a series of research in this field. This review article covers the latest developments of spatiotemporal vortices of light ranging from theoretical physics
experimental generation schemes
and characterization methods
to applications and future perspectives. This new degree of freedom in photonic OAM endowed by spatiotemporal vortices paves the way to the discovery of novel physical mechanisms and photonic applications in light science.
