Controllable synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Neem leaves and their antimicrobial activity

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized using aqueous extract of Neem (Azadirachta indica) leaves and silver salt. XRD, SEM, FTIR, optical absorption and photoluminescence (PL) were measured and analysed. The synthesized AgNPs exhibits lowest energy absorption band at 400 nm. The effects of va...
