In this paper, the AZO morphology, optical and structural properties and IOSCs performance are investigated as a function of precursor solution concentration from 0.1 mol/L to 1.0 mol/L. We demonstrate that the device with 0.1 mol/L precursor concentration of AZO buffer layers enhances the short-circuit current and the fill factor of IOSCs simultaneously. The resulting device shows that the power conversion efficiency is improved by 35.6% relative to that of the 1.0 mol/L device, due to the improved surface morphology and transmittance(300–400 nm) of AZO buffer layer.展开更多
