Organic molecular crystals are appealing for next-generation optoelectronic applications, most notably due to their multiexciton generation process that can increase the efficiency of photovoltaic devices. However, a general understanding of how crystal structures affects multiexciton generation processes is lacking, requiring computationally demanding calculations for each material. Here we present an approach to understand and classify such crystals and elucidate multiexciton processes. We show that organic crystals that are composed of two sublattices are well-approximated by effective fictitious systems of higher translational symmetry. Within this framework, we derive hidden selection rules in crystal pentacene and predict that the common bulk polymorph supports fast Coulomb-mediated singlet fission about one order of magnitude more than the thin-film polymorph, a result confirmed with many-body perturbation theory calculations. Our approach is fully based on density-functional theory calculations, and provides design principles for the experimental and computational discovery of new materials with efficient non-radiative exciton decay rates. |
