Development of green route for the synthesis of nanoparticles with plant extracts plays a very important role in nanotechnology without any toxicity chemicals. Herein we report a new approach to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous extract of Alpinia calcarata root as a reducing as well as stabilizing agent. The crystal structure and purity of the synthesized AgNPs were studied using Powder X-ray Diffraction analysis. The Surface Plasmon Resonance bands of synthesized silver nanoparticles have been obtained and monitored using UV-Visible spectrum. The morphologies of the AgNPs were analyzed using High resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The elements present in the A. calcarata extract were determined by the inductively coupled plasma-optical emission Spectrometry (ICP-OES) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Silver nanoparticles from A. calcarata possess very good antimicrobial activity which was confirmed by resazurin dye reduction assay method and thus it is a potential source of antimicrobial agent. The synthesized Ag nanoparticles exhibit good optical nonlinearity and the nonlinear optical studies have been carried out by Z-scan technique. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
