Not all the light in galaxy groups and clusters comes from stars that arebound to galaxies. A significant fraction of it constitutes the so-calledintracluster or diffuse light (ICL), a low surface brightness component ofgroups/clusters generally found in the surroundings of the brightest clustergalaxies and intermediate/massive satellites. In this review, I will describethe mechanisms responsible for its formation and evolution, considering thelarge contribution given to the topic in the last decades by both thetheoretical and observational sides. Starting from the methods that arecommonly used to isolate the ICL, I will address the remarkable problem givenby its own definition, which still makes the comparisons among differentstudies not trivial, to conclude by giving an overview of the most recent worksthat take advantage of the ICL as a luminous tracer of the dark matterdistribution in galaxy groups and clusters.
