    can we use a light sensor diode to produce electricity from light
    A sensor would sense and produce electrical pulses. That pulse can be used for micro voltage electronic operations but unfortunately with current technology you need minimum .3v to work with any electronics. So that pulse needs to be amplified. The amplifier ( either 741/555) will need external voltage to produce amplication. In a way though you can produce electricity from light sensor, you will waste more in generating!

    That is what a silicon PV cell is.

    A Light Sensor generates an output signal indicating the intensity of light by measuring the radiant energy that exists in a very narrow range of frequencies basically called "light", and which ranges in frequency from "Infrared" to "Visible" up to "Ultraviolet" light spectrum. The light sensor is a passive devices that convert this "light energy" whether visible or in the infrared parts of the spectrum into an electrical signal output. Light sensors are more commonly known as "Photoelectric Devices" or "Photo Sensors" because the convert light energy (photons) into electricity.To know more about go to <a href="https://www.processregister.com/find/Find.asp?SearchTy=PName&SearchSu=light+sensor+&SearchKe=AllKey&SearchLo=ALL&x=0&y=0" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Search Results For Products By Name: [ light sensor ]</a> .
