This study reports the green synthesis of Curcuma caesia rhizome extract with Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles. The rhizome extract biosynthesized gives Amber colour or reddish brown colored solution was formed. UV–Vis spectroscopy revealed a sharp absorption peak at 334 nm, characteristic bioactive compounds present in rhizome extract.. FTIR spectra showed phytochemical functional groups of bioactive compounds of rhizome extract, including O–H (3523 and 3265 cm⁻¹), C–H (2925 cm⁻¹), and C=O (1720 cm⁻¹), along with Ti–O–Ti vibrations below 800 cm⁻¹, confirming TiO₂ formation. X-ray diffraction patterns exhibited distinct peaks at 27.4°, 36.1°, 41.2°, 54.3°, and 69.0° (2θ), corresponding to the rutile phase (JCPDS 21-1276), with an average crystallite size of 26–30 nm calculated by the Scherrer equation. SEM images revealed aggregated particles with a size range of 50–150 nm, while EDS confirmed the elemental composition with a Ti:O atomic ratio close to 1:2. The results establish green synthesis as a sustainable and efficient approach for producing biosynthesized product with potential applications in photocatalysis, antimicrobial activity, anticancer, anti inflammatory, antioxidant etc.
