We analyze the quantum correlations between side modes of a quantum beat laser when a two-level atomic medium is driven strongly by a classical field. The squeezing and the entanglement generation of the cavity radiation are investigated. It turns out that there is neither squeezing nor entanglement when the strong driving field is resonant with the atomic transition but the generated light exhibits both two-mode squeezing and entanglement when the driving field is tuned away from the atomic transition.
