An eco-friendly and inexpensive process of reduction of Graphene oxide using extract of Amla juices is here in reported. The objective is to reduce Graphene oxide to Graphene nanoparticles. The crystallite size of nanoparticles Graphene was confirmed by XRD analysis. FTIR spectral analysis revealed the reduction of Graphene oxide using extract of Amla juices. The morphology of the synthesized Graphene was examined by TEM analysis and SAED pattern. From Graphene oxide which was prepared by Hummer method is reduced to Graphene by using Amla juices as reducing agent. To synthesize Graphene nanoparticles using a cost effective green method and to analyze how Graphene improves a device with respect to cost, production and efficiency. The toxicity of the Graphene nanoparticles will be reduced through the green method.
