How to create custom arrays in fortran?

I have been looking at porting a cuda library to fortran. PGI and EM Photonics seem to be two libraries that exist right now. However I have only found what I am looking for over here

real, device, allocatable :: adev(:), bdev(:)  ! device declaration

So my question is, is there a way to create custom arrays like the code sample mentioned above ? Or is it part of the propreitary compiler from PGI ?

Edited for further clarity
In other words can I do this

mycustomtype, allocatable :: tmp(:)

No, that is standard Fortran. There are several ways to declare arrays; this one in particular is called declaring a deferred-shape allocatable array.

Your best shot would be to check out PGI's documentation under array declaration.
