Barium oxide (BaONPs) is synthesized using a straightforward chemical process. Through X‐ray diffraction, the creation of cubic‐structure BaO nanoparticles was verified (XRD). BaO predicted crystallite sizes from X‐ray diffraction (XRD) data were 66.23 nm. Utilizing an AFM with a scanning electron microscope to investigate morphology BaO computed band gap energy was 4.35 eV. The presence of the (BaO) stretching vibration mode is indicated by the emergence of the transmission peak at 670 cm-1 in the FTIR spectrum. It was found from current‐voltage measurements under illumination that the performance of the solar cell is good where the solar cell achieved efficiency (η = 0.48%). Also the Photodetector has been successfully fabricated, where the results indicate that it can be used for detection.
