In this paper, the Performance of quantum cascade laser, subjected to optical feedback, in the process of random number generating is investigated. For this purpose, the output of the quantum cascade laser was used as a sampler signal generator from the output of chaotic semiconductor lasers. Investigations were done in two situations; conventional optical feedback and Phase conjugated feedback; and the optimal mode was selected. The obtained results show that the generation rate of random numbers is faster than that used by conventional laser diode.
