A one-step green synthesis involving highly stabilized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was achieved by employing the extract of Piper nigrum (black pepper) as both a reducing and capping agent in an aqueous medium without the need for any additional chemicals. The UV-Visible spectrum indicated the presence of AgNPs. X-ray diffraction examination revealed the creation of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) with a face-center cubic structure. The FT-IR spectra were utilized to determine the functional groups. This photosynthetic approach is simple, cost-effective, replicable, and environmentally friendly.
