We report time-domain measurements of acoustic-wave-induced magnetization dynamics in magnetic tunnel junctions. The acoustic pulses are generated by femtosecond laser excitation and interact with the magnetization through magnetoelastic coupling. The induced magnetization precession is not only dependent on the externally applied magnetic field, but also on the laser excitation position. The presented method even allows us to coherently control the precession using two laser pulses at various magnetic fields and excitation positions.

We demonstrate high-speed operation of ultracompact electroabsorption modulators based on epsilon-near-zero confinement in indium oxide (In$_\textrm2$$_\textrm3$\$) on silicon using field-effect carrier density tuning. Additionally, we discuss strategies to enhance modulator performance and reduce confinement-related losses by introducing high-mobility conducting oxides such as cadmium oxide (CdO).

This article presents a systematic review on the challenges and recent progress of timing and carrier synchronization techniques for high-speed optical transmission systems using single-carrier-based coherent optical modulation formats.
