Abstract: Thin films of Rhodamine C dye in fixed concentration (5×mn;10–5 mol L–1) and different weights of zinc oxide nanoparticles (50 nm) have been prepared by doping in epoxy resin. The optical properties of thin films were measured and the results obtained from the measurements of electric conversion efficiencies of all thin films indicate that the best conversion efficiency (η%)LSC of Si solar cell was with (0.1 g) of Nano ZnO (η = 2.589%), compared with the thin film without ZnO nanoparticles (η = 2.322%) efficiency increment (Δη = 28.23%) and solar cell without LSC (η = 2.019%) efficiency increment (Δη = 15%).
