Nanomaterials are consistently conquering modern society and are uncovering ways to sneak into a variety of uses aimed at enhancing individual standards of everyday life. Carbon serves as an anchor for everything that exists on earth and carbon based materials are essential in the evolution of material science. During the past few decades, quite a few numbers of carbon based nanomaterials have been progressed by dint of diversified synthetic process. Fresh green approaches and innovations are pertinent to carbon based nanomaterials posed by researchers in every corner of the world have widened massive opportunities towards the green nanotechnology revolution. This paper deals with experimental and the characterization procedures of the as synthesized carbonbased nanomaterials. Herein, we report carbon based nanomaterials green synthesized via bottom up approach by utilizing carrot (Daucus carota) and ginger (Zingiber officinale) as sources. The experimental employs the extracts of both the sources being exposed to high temperature and a limited period. The characterization studies are examined by means of SEM-EDAX analysis, FTIR analysis, XRD analysis, UV-vis spectroscopic analysis, PL analysis, DLS and zeta potential analysis for both the samples is discussed furthermore.
