We consider a nondegenerate three-level cascade laser with a subthreshold nondegenerate parametric oscillator coupled to a vacuum reservoir. Applying the pertinent master equation, we analyze the squeezing and entanglement properties of the two-mode light produced by this quantum optical system inside and outside the cavity. We also determine the normalized second-order correlation function for the two-mode light as well as for individual mode. We find that the light generated by this system is in a two-mode squeezed state and the state of the system is strongly entangled at steady state. Moreover, the presence of the parametric oscillator leads to an increase in the degree of squeezing and entanglement. We also find that the intermode correlation decreases as the injected atomic coherence decreases in the system.
