Abstract: We discuss the correlation and entanglement of a three-level atom with a single-mode quantized field in a coherent state inside a phase-damped cavity. We analyze the influence of dissipation on the quantum and classical entropy. It has been shown that the quantum, classical and nonextensive entropy are sensitive to any change in the initial state setting of the atom and the quantized field. The relation between the long lived entanglement and dissipation is observed. On the other hand, a short disentanglement can be generated through special values of the atomic motion parameter.
