Abstract

polytypes are analysed to identify features of polytypism such as the distinct arrangements of layers and symmetry forbidden sequences. A number of polytypes with low ordering energies (around thermal energy at room temperature) are predicted, which could form distinct phases or appear as stacking faults within perovskite grains.
