The current and the voltgate from solar cell are verry small, so can i add a amplicifer circuit? And How add?

A solar cell works by converting light energy from the sun into electricity. When a laser beam hits the surface of a solar cell, it generates a flow of electrons, which can be measured as a current. This current is then used to determine the power output of the laser.
Using a solar cell as a power laser meter has several advantages. It is a non-intrusive method, meaning it does not interfere with the laser beam or require any physical contact. It is also a cost-effective option, as solar cells are relatively inexpensive and require little maintenance. Additionally, solar cells are highly accurate and can measure a wide range of laser powers.
No, not all solar cells are suitable for use as power laser meters. The solar cell must have a high sensitivity to light and be able to accurately measure small changes in current. Silicon-based solar cells are commonly used for this purpose, as they have a high sensitivity and are readily available.
One limitation of using a solar cell as a power laser meter is that it can only measure the power of continuous wave (CW) lasers. Pulsed lasers, which have a non-continuous output, cannot be accurately measured with a solar cell. Additionally, the size of the solar cell may also limit the range of laser powers that can be measured.
The accuracy of a solar cell as a power laser meter can be improved by calibrating it against a known laser power source. This will ensure that the readings from the solar cell are accurate and reliable. Additionally, using a larger solar cell can also improve the accuracy, as it will be able to measure a wider range of laser powers.
