An electron strongly coupled to the LO-phonon in an asymmetric quantum dot has been considered. The system has a central impurity and it is under electric and magnetic fields. The eigenenergies and eigenfunctions of the ground and the first-excited states of the electron have been calculated using the Pekar variational method. Entropy of the system for different values of Coulomb impurity parameter, electron-LO phonon coupling strength, dispersion coefficient and electric field have been studied. Two entropies, Shannon and Gaussian entropy have been employed. It is found that the entropy has the oscillatory periodic evolution as function of the time due to the confinement form. It is deduced that the entropies increase with enhancing Coulomb impurity parameter, electron-LO phonon coupling strength and dispersion coefficient. With increasing electron-LO phonon coupling strength, the entropies decrease. The control of the coherence of the system can be done with the modulation of the electric field, the Coulomb bound potential, dispersion coefficient and electron-LO phonon coupling strength.
