  We theoretically study the generation of quantum correlations in a hybrid
system composed by two interacting semiconductor quantum dots mediated by a
metal nanoparticle and coupled to an external laser field. Interactions present
in the hybrid system are treated using a semiclassical approximation except for
the direct dipole-dipole interaction.
  We report the entanglement of formation, which gives information about
entanglement quantum correlations, for continuous wave and pulsed driving
applied fields. We have found that for proper values of the physical and
geometrical parameters of the hybrid system the applied field can be tuned
producing quantum correlations of significant value so that they can be useful
in quantum information and computation processes.
