In this work, an organic photovoltaic cell experimental study was performed to improve the electrical characteristics (current and voltage) and the conversion efficiency. Three Schottky organic photovoltaic cells that based polythiophene are realized experimentally for several cell surfaces and transparent electrode types. According to the obtained results, the best conversion efficiency is registered for the organic cell fabricated by {ZnO:Al/PTH/Al}. The photovoltaic cell performances are highly dependent on their geometry and the rearrangement of the polymer grains in contact with the metal that reflects the surface state significance of the two parts (metal and polymer). The electrode type used in the cell manufacturing possesses a very important influence on the cell electrical characteristics.
