In this paper, we study the effect of phase fluctuations of the pump field upon the entanglement generation in a two-photon correlated emission laser (CEL). We consider initial vacuum and coherent state for the two-cavity modes. In both cases, we find reduction in the entanglement due to the phase fluctuations. However, our results indicate that entanglement generation is highly sensitive to phase fluctuations when we have initial coherent state in the two modes.
