Abstract: This study presents a sustainable method for producing iron oxide nanoparticles (FeO NPs) using aqueous extracts from pudina leaves. Morphological analysis using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) confirmed that the synthesized nanoparticles exhibit a predominantly spherical and granular structure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) results reveals that nonspherical NPs ranging from 30 to 50 nm. The XRD analysis conï¬ rmed the face-centred cubic structure and the Debye–Scherrer’s crystalline size support the FeO particle. The optical characterization revealed essential features that support the biomedical relevance of FeO nanoparticles. Transmittance studies indicated selective transparency in the UV and near-infrared regions, while photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy highlighted visible emissions due to structural and surface defects an encouraging sign for imaging and sensing applications. The UV-Vis absorption spectrum showed a broad absorption in the UV and visible regions.
