Can we prove, without using Laguerre polynomials, that $f_n(x)=O(\frac{n!}{\sqrt{n}})$ i.e. that

$$ \exists C>0, \exists N\in\mathbb N, \forall x\geq0, \forall n\geq N :\ \big| f_n(x) \big|\leq C \frac{n!}{\sqrt{n}}, $$

where $$ f_n(x)=e^{\frac{x}{2}}\int^\infty_0 e^{-t}t^{n-\frac{1}{2}}\cos(2\sqrt{xt})dt,\quad x \geq 0\;? $$

Proof (by using Laguerre polynomials): it's easy to show that $$ f_n(x)=\sqrt \pi e^{-x/2} n! L^{(-1/2)}_n(x) $$ and we know that $$ L^{(-1/2)}_n(x)=O\Big(e^{x/2}\frac{1}{\sqrt{n}}\Big). $$ However, I'd like to not use this simple argument.
