Abstract: 

Nano ZnO was synthesized by green approach employing leaf extract of Moringa oleifera and Vitex negundo leaves. Synthesized nanoparticles were characterized through UV–Visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The UV absorption spectra reveal that the sample has better optical transparency and have sufficient transmittance. From the FTIR spectrum confirmed the functional group responsible for zinc oxide nanoparticles. The SEM analysis shows the synthesized nanoparticles are hexagonal shape.
