Introduction

Almost all the applications of electromagnetic waves are about the manipulation of their physical dimensions including frequency/wavelength, complex amplitude, time, polarization, and space.  The space domain  is considered  the only known physical dimension left to exploit in newly emerging applications of electromagnetic waves. As the ongoing frontiers, exploiting the space domain of electromagnetic waves has fueled lots of interesting research fields. For instance,  structured lights  accessing the spatial amplitude/phase/polarization distributions of lightwaves have  given rise to many developments in astronomy, manipulation, trapping, tweezer, microscopy, imaging, sensing, nonlinear interactions and quantum information processing. Very recently, spacedivision multiplexing (SDM) is known as the only long-term viable path for sustained capacity scalability in optical communication networks, from short-reach data center interconnects and optical access networks to long-haul transport systems.
