Abstract: Research on green production methods for metal oxide Nanoparticles (NPs) is growing with the objective to overcome the potential hazards of these chemicals for a safer environment. In this study, facile, eco friendly synthesis of Copper Oxide (CuO) nanoparticles was successfully achieved using olive leaf extract. Nanoparticles were further characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Fourier Transforms Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). Plant-mediated CuO nanoparticles were found to be oval shaped and well dispersed in suspension. Copper oxide nanoparticles are used in many applications, therefore, these green synthesized CuO NPs are application in prepare solar cell give.
