Computational Study for Fiber Bragg Gratings with Dispersive Reflectivity Using Fractional Derivative

Abstract

In this paper, the new representations of optical wave solutions to fiber Bragg gratings with cubic–quartic dispersive reflectivity having the Kerr law of nonlinear refractive index structure are retrieved with high accuracy. The residual power series technique is used to derive power series solutions to this model. The fractional derivative is taken in Caputo’s sense. The residual power series technique (RPST) provides the approximate solutions in truncated series form for specified initial conditions. By using three test applications, the efficiency and validity of the employed technique are demonstrated. By considering the suitable values of parameters, the power series solutions are illustrated by sketching 2D, 3D, and contour profiles. The analysis of the obtained results reveals that the RPST is a significant addition to exploring the dynamics of sustainable and smooth optical wave propagation across long distances through optical fibers.
