Improving thermal stability is of great importance for the industrialization of polymer solar cells (PSC). In this paper, we systematically investigated the high-temperature thermal annealing effect on the device performance of the state-of-the-art polymer:non-fullerene (PM6:Y6) solar cells with an inverted structure. Results revealed that the overall performance decay (19% decrease) was mainly due to the fast open-circuit voltage (, 10% decrease) and fill factor (FF, 10% decrease) decays whereas short circuit current () was relatively stable upon annealing at 150 °C (0.

Methods: The polymorphism was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method in 206 T2DM patients and 446 healthy controls. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content, mtDNA transcriptional level and large-scale mtDNA deletion were evaluated in leukocytes of T2DM patients using fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (FQ-PCR), reverse transcriptase-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and long-range PCR approaches, respectively.
