Terahertz pulse shaping has attracted much attention from a variety of applications in fundamental and applied research fields, such as quantum theory, bio-medical imaging, security-checking, sub-milimeter wave communication and so on. A brief review is presented on the latest progress of terahertz pulse shaping based on femtosecond pulse shaping, new terahertz materials and device, and terahertz pulse shaper. The perspective of the terahertz pulse shaping techniques is also presented.
