In this present study thymus vulgaris leaf were collected from home town(Nilgiris). The fresh leaves are taken in the
round bottom flask and refluxed for around 1 hour until the aqueous colour changes. The extract was collected and 1mM silver
nitrate solution was added to it after the addition of silver nitrate the pale yellow extract changes its color to dark brown. The
change in colour indicates the reduction of particle size in the thymus vulgaris leaf extract. The characterization of green
synthesis of silver nanoparticles were done by using U-vis, XRD, FTIR, SEM and SEM EDAX. This studies explains the
physical characterization of the silver nano particles produced.
