Abstract: Preserving quantum correlations against environmental noise is a major bottleneck in developing scalable quantum information processing architectures. This paper investigates the time-dependent evolution of quantum entanglement and evaluates active decoherence control strategies within driven lambda-type three-level atomic systems. The system models a lambda-type atom coupled to a lossy optical microcavity interacting with a localized thermal phonon bath. We utilized the density matrix master equation framework within the Lindblad dissipation model at an operating temperature of 4.2 K. Our numerical calculations show that configuring the driving laser fields under electromagnetically induced transparency conditions effectively decouples the atomic state from the cavity decay channel. This decoupling preserves bipartite entanglement for durations exceeding 18.0 ns, maintaining a concurrence value above 0.84. We simulated an active dynamical decoupling pulse sequence that suppresses phase relaxation caused by low-frequency phonon noise. The optimized sequence yielded a quantum gate operation fidelity of 99.3% ± 0.2%. These findings provide an effective theoretical framework for designing noise-resistant quantum memory registers and stabilizing non-classical states within complex quantum networks.
