Investigating the impact of successive introduction of precursor in making of silver-copper bimetallic green nanoparticles utilizing Tulsi leaf extract both as a stabilizing and reducing agent. Green synthesis methods using plants and plant-based extract are more beneficial and biodegradable than any other synthesis methods. Compared to other approaches plants generate nanoparticles which are more stable, and scaling them up is very easy. The impact of electronegativity of Ag and Cu metals on the formation and growth of these bimetallic nanoparticles has been studied. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to investigate the biosynthesized Ag-Cu nanoparticles and Cu-Ag nanoparticles
