On the condition of electric-LO phonon strong coupling in parabolic quantum dot, we obtain the eigenenergies of the ground state and the first-excited state, the eigenfunctions of the ground state and the first-excited state by using variational method of Pekar type. This system in quantum dot may be employed as a two-level quantum system-qubit. The phonon spontaneous emission causes the decoherence of the qubit. We displayed the density matrix of the qubit decayed with the time evolution and the coherence term of the density matrix element p 10 (or p 01) decayed with the time evolution for different coupling strength, the confinement length, the coefficient dispersion.
