Two-dimensional lead halide perovskites are promising materials for optoelectronics due to the tunability of their properties with the number of lead halide layers and the choice of an organic spacer. Physical understanding for the rational design of materials primarily requires knowledge of crystal structure. 2D lead halide perovskites are usually prepared in the form of films complicating the experimental determination of structure. To enable theoretical studies of experimentally unresolvable structures as well as high-throughput virtual screening, we present an algorithm for crystal structure prediction of lead halide perovskites. Using automatically prepared classical potential we show that our algorithm enables fast access to a structure that can be used for further first-principles studies. |
