Based on the model of the nonlinear optical loop mirror with feedback,we theoretically demonstrate the chaotic characteristics.The numerical results show that the nonlinear fiber loop experiences the period-doubling route to chaos with the external light injection increasing.It is because the injected light in the nonlinear optical fiber loop transmit due to the nonlinear Kerr effect in optical fiber cause nonlinear phase shift,and the light field realize the chaotic output through many iterations.The results provide theoretic guidance to realize chaotic generation using the nonlinear optical fiber loop.
