Title:
SILVER HALIDE EMULSION, SILVER HALIDE PHOTOGRAPHIC SENSITIVE MATERIAL, AND METHOD OF IMAGE FORMATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/068238
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A silver halide emulsion which has high sensitivity, reduced fogging, and a high gamma value regardless of exposure mode, is excellent in storage stability and latent-image stability, and enables high-quality prints to be always obtained stably and which is excellent especially in latent-image stability in digital exposure where the photographic sensitive material is exposed at a high luminance for a short time. The silver halide emulsion contains silver halide particles having a silver chloride content of 90 mol% or higher, a silver iodide content of 0 to 2.0 mol%, and a silver bromide content of 0.02 to 5.0 mol% and containing therein two or more Group 8 metal compounds including one or more iridium compounds. The emulsion is characterized in that the silver halide particles have been chemically sensitized in the presence of a polysulfide compound represented by the following general formula (1): General formula (1) (wherein A represents a group of atoms necessary for forming a 5- or 6-membered heterocycle containing at least one of -O-, -S-, -N-, -SO2-, -CO-, and -NR31CO-, provided that R31 represents hydrogen or a substituent; and n is 3 or 4).
