This Perspective presents major computational challenges and modern methodological strategies to advance the field. The discussion ranges from insights and design principles at the quantum chemical level, in-depth atomistic modeling based on multiscale protocols, morphological prediction and characterization as well as energy-property maps involving data-driven analysis. A personal overview of the past achievements and future direction is also provided.Chemistry, MultidisciplinaryChemistrycharge-carrier mobilityintermolecular interactionselectronic-propertiestransport propertiestheoretical characterizationtransfer integralssingle-crystalspolaron motionenergyparameterstext::journal::journal article::research article
