Abstract

Nowdays Silver nanoparticles are in increasing commercial demands due to their enormous application in wide range of scientific fields, such as medicines, catalysis, electronics, chemistry and energy. Herein we have reported a very simple and green approach of chemical reduction method for nanoparticle synthesis. The plant extract of Butea monosperma is used as reducing agent as well as capping agent. For confirmation of essential phytochemicals present in extract screening of phytochemicals such as Proteins, Flavonoids, Terpenoids, Cardiac glycosides and Tannins etc. has been carried out in the present study. The UV- Visible spectroscopy has been used to determine Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) and Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) to confirm functional groups. From the Absorbance the band gap values have been calculated which are useful in soft electronic devices.

Keywords
