An electric cell is made by placing two plates made of different materials that have different affinities for electrons in a conducting solution. (A battery is actually a series of cells.) You can make a simple 1.5-V cell by placing a strip of copper and a strip of zinc in a tumbler of saltwater. The voltage of a cell depends on the materials used and the solution they are placed in, not on the size of the plates.
