Abstract
Optical and electrochemical properties from Cassia and Giloy leaves' raw extract have been studied, and they show similar properties as UV absorber but different emission properties, under UV excitation, even though they appear the same in natural light. Giloy and Cassia extracts show red and green luminescence, respectively, under UV excitation. Like the appearance, their redox properties are also similar, which shows that both can act as antioxidants. Raman spectroscopy and excitation wavelength dependent photoluminescence data have been compared. The difference in relative emission intensities have been explained based on the presence of corresponding color centers in different ratios in the two leaves.
