摘要

The preparation of nanomaterials using green synthesis by the use of plant products is an interesting field of study. This work is a demonstration of the green route for preparing copper oxide (CuO) nanoparticles. Indian gooseberry (Phyllanthus emblica) fruit extract has been chosen as a plant source for making these nanoparticles. XRD, FTIR, UV–visible spectroscopy, and FESEM were used to characterize the nanoparticles. XRD confirmed the formation of the monoclinic phase of CuO nanoparticles, whereas in UV–vis absorption, a peak appeared at 220 nm, associated with CuO. This method holds potential for environment-friendly and low-cost nanoparticle synthesis.
