New optical soliton solutions of fractional perturbed nonlinear Schrodinger equation in nanofibers

In this article, the space-time fractional perturbed nonlinear Schrodinger equation (NLSE) in nanofibers is studied using the improved tan(phi(xi)/2) expansion method (ITEM) to explore new exact solutions. The perturbed nonlinear Schrodinger equation is a nonlinear model that occurs in nanofibers. The ITEM is an efficient method to obtain the exact solutions for nonlinear differential equations. With the help of the modified Riemann-Liouville derivative, an equivalent ordinary differential equation has been obtained from the nonlinear fractional differential equation. Several new exact solutions to the fractional perturbed NLSE have been devised using the ITEM, which is the latest proficient method for analyzing nonlinear partial differential models. The proposed method may be applied for searching exact travelling wave solutions of other nonlinear fractional partial differential equations that appear in engineering and physics fields. Furthermore, the obtained soliton solutions are depicted in some 3D graphs to observe the behaviour of these solutions.
