Abstract
This research proposes a formulation to model the phenomenon of metal-insulator transition in manganite
materials. To explain such phenomenon, this model takes into account the effects of phonon interactions,
electron-phonon interactions, and the interactions between electron spin of ions. We apply Jahn-Teller phonon
model that specifically describes lattice vibrations after the Jahn-Teller distortion effect in eg orbital. This model
is then operated with the Dynamical Mean Field Theory (DMFT) framework to obtain the Density of States
(DoS). By obtaining DoS, we can see the process of metal-insulator transition qualitatively.
