The correct option is A
Monocrystalline silicon

The solar cells are used to convert the solar energy directly into the electrical energy.

These cells are made from thin slices of semiconducting material(Monocrystalline silicon) because when it is doped with the impurities gallium and arsenic its ability to capture the suns energy and convert it into electricity is improved.
