New Delhi:
Jamun or Black plum, a vital Indian summer fruit associated with many health and medicinal benefits, has now been utilised by scientists at IIT Roorkee for its yet another peculiarity.
Researchers have used this juicy summer fruit to create inexpensive and more efficient solar cells using naturally occurring pigment found in it as an inexpensive photosensitiser for Dye Sensitised Solar Cells (DSSCs) or Gratzel cells.
