Pieoztronic and piezo-phototronic are two emerging fields of flexible electronics and nanoelectronics using by piezoelectric semiconductor materials, such as ZnO, GaN, InN and CdS. Recent experiments shown piezoelectric and semiconductor properties of monolayer MoS 2, which have been applied as nanogenertor and piezotronic transistor. Two-dimensional piezoelectric semiconductor can be utilized for high-performance photovoltaic devices. In this paper, a two-dimensional material piezo-phototronic solar cell is studied theoretically based on a monolayer MoS 2 metal-semiconductor contact. The current-voltage characteristics, open circuit voltage, maximum output power, fill factor and power conversion efficiency have been studied for the piezo-phototronic solar cell. The modulation level of piezo-phototronic effect is presented to evaluate the performance under applied strain. The piezo-phototronic effect can increase the open circuit voltage 5.8% at strain of 1%. This principle can be a new way to develop high-performance two-dimensional solar cells.
