Abstract :

Bio synthesis of Iron oxide nanoparticles was prepared using Green Synthesis method using the Catharanthus roseus plant leaves. The plant contains more medicinal properties like antibacterial activity, drugs, fungus and so on. FeSO4.7H2O act as parent material were used. XRD studies confirmed size of nanoparticles. When theda values increases dislocation density also increased. The morphology of Iron oxide nanoparticle was studied using SEM analysis. Due to surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) Iron oxide Np’s were confirmed at 215nm.Using Tauc’s plot graph method the energy badgap energy level is 5.76 eV from UV-Vis spectroscopy. From the functional group analysis, Fe-O stretching of iron oxide confirmed at 558 and 594 cm-1 .
