Description
Summary:A new extended direct algebraic method is applied to extract new traveling wave solutions for non-linear directional couplers with the optical meta-materials. This model studies light distribution from the main fiber into other branch fibers, which can be one or more than one. So, for this reason, twin couplers and multiple core couplers are studied in this paper. Further two cases in multiple core couplers namely multiple core couplers near the neighbor and multiple core couplers with a complete neighbor are exhaustively discussed. The non-linearity type that is considered here is Kerr Law. The obtained solutions set is more generalized than the existing solution as it is transformed into fractional-order derivative because it gives the solutions of problems with heavy tails or infinity fluctuations. Furthermore, the obtained solutions contain almost all types of solitons such as dark, bright, dark-bright, rational, periodic, breather, and singular soliton solutions, etc. Moreover, the obtained solutions are fractional solitons with Atangana-Baleanu and modified Riemann–Liouville fractional operator. These non-linear directional couplers also act as limiters in intensity-dependent switches. The propagation constants of the modes of a system are changed by non-linearity. In order to discuss the physical nature of couplers, 2D and 3D figures are also shown.
