In the context of organic light-emitting diodes, the molecular orientation in thin layers of organic materials plays a crucial role in charge injection, light outcoupling, and the formation of internal electrostatic fields due to the alignment of molecular dipoles. This latter phenomenon is referred to as the giant surface potential (GSP). Predicting GSP soleley from the chemical structure is challenging, as it is highly sensitive to processing conditions such as temperature and deposition rate during the physical vapor deposition process. Using both all-atom and coarse-grained simulations, we develop and test a framework capable of predicting the molecular ordering of organic materials under varying substrate temperatures and deposition rates. The framework's accuracy is validated by comparing the predicted GSP and birefringence of thin films to experimentally measured values, for a series of TPBi isomers.
