CSIR-NIIST scientists set efficiency record of 35.6 % in indoor photovoltaic using solar cells
Thiruvananthapuram: In a technological milestone, scientists at CSIR-National Institute for Interdisciplinary Science & Technology (CSIR-NIIST) here have set a new efficiency record of 35.6 per cent in indoor light harvesting using dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). This can provide a sustainable alternative to one-time use primary batteries and also reduce environmental pollution. The technological feat has received global recognition as its details have been published in the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Journal of Materials Chemistry A, a statement said here.
