solitons in optical metamaterials with anti-cubic law of nonlinearity by etem and igem

Background: this paper studies soliton perturbation in optical metamaterials, with anticubic nonlinearity. methods: two integration approaches, namely, the extended trial equation method (etem) and the improved g’/gexpansion method (igem) are presented. results: bright, dark and singular soliton solutions are retrieved. the existence criteria of these solitons in metamaterials are also demonstrated. all solutions have been verified back into its corresponding equation with the aid of maple package program. conclusions: finally, we believe that the executed method is robust and efficient than other methods and the obtained solutions in this paper can help us to understand the variation of solitary waves in optical metamaterials. © 2018, the author(s).
