Abstract
A process and system for producing random numbers by means of a quantum random number generator is disclosed, comprising the steps of operating a multimode laser in a laser cavity with periodic modulation of a net gain, and detecting the random intensity pattern produced by the inter-mode beating occurring within the laser cavity. The numbers produced are truly random and a minimal number of elements is required for operating the system.
