Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a spectrally sensitized silver halide emulsion and, more particularly, to a method of making a silver halide emulsion, in which a cyanine dye of the kind which forms a J-aggregate and a supersensitizer are used-during the formation of silver halide grains.
  • sensitizing dyes are usually added to emulsions after formation of silver halide grains.
  • Methods of adding sensitizing dyes to emulsions prior to completion of grain formation of silver halide are disclosed in US-A-2, 735,766, 3,628,960, 4,183,756 and 4,225,666 and JP-A-196749/85 (US-A-4,683,193), JP-A-61-103149, JP-A-61-249053, and JP-A-61-210345 (the term "JP-A” as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese patent application").
  • the efficiency of spectral sensitization can be determined by measuring a relative quantum yield ⁇ r in spectral sensitization.
  • the procedures for measuring ⁇ r are well-known to those skilled in the art, and are described in detail, e.g., in J. Spence & B.H. Carroll, Journal of Physical and Colloid Chemistry , vol. 52, p. 1090 (1948), and Tada-aki Tani & Hitoshi Urabe, Nippon Shashin Gakkai-Shi , vol.41, p. 325 (1978).
  • a first object of the present invention is to provide an improved method for spectral sensitization, in which adsorption of dyes is strengthened and thereby a high efficiency of spectral sensitization can be obtained.
  • a second object of the present invention is to provide an improved method for spectral sensitization, in which the desensitization of dyes is depressed and thereby a high efficiency of spectral sensitization can be obtained.
  • a third object of the present invention is to provide an improved method for spectral sensitization, in which a large amount of dyes are added to provide high efficiency spectral sensitization.
  • an improved silver halide photographic emulsion which has a high spectral sensitizing effect, and in which adsorption of a sensitizing dye is strengthened, can be made by forming silver halide grains in the presence of not only a J-aggregated cyanine dye but also a sensitizing amount of a supersensitizer. Further, we have found that in accordance with the above-described method, the desensitizing effect of dyes can be depressed and the efficiency of spectral sensitization can be heightened, so an improved silver halide photographic emulsion which has spectral sensitization of high efficiency and chemical sensitization can be prepared.
  • the desensitizing effect of dyes can be depressed to enable the preparation of an improved silver halide photographic emulsion with a high spectral sensitizing efficiency by addition of a large amount of spectral sensitizing dye.
  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a spectrally sensitized silver halide photographic emulsion by the step of forming silver halide grains in the presence of at least one J-aggregated cyanine dye and a supersensitizer.
  • supersensitizer means any compound having a supersensitizing effect conventionally used in the field of silver halide photographic emulsions, and includes compounds capable of increasing the spectral sensitivity of an emulsion when a cyanine dye is used in combination therewith, compared with the use of the cyanine dye alone.
  • a cyanine dye of the kind which forms the J-aggregate and a supersensitizer can be added to a silver halide emulsion at any time, provided that it preceeds the completion of the formation of silver halide grains.
  • the addition time can be properly chosen depending on the types of sensitizing dyes and emulsion used.
  • Whole amounts of sensitizing dye and supersensitizer may be added to the reaction system simultaneously with or prior to the beginning of grain formation.
  • the sensitizing dye and the supersensitizer each may be divided into several portions, and added intermittently. In the latter case, for instance, one portion is added at the beginning of the grain formation, and the others can be added at regular time intervals during the course of grain formation.
  • the sensitizing dye and the supersensitizer can be continuously added before completion of the grain formation.
  • These ingredients may be added together with a silver nitrate solution, a halide solution or independently of these solutions. In the latter case, the addition may be initiated simultaneously with or prior to the beginning of grain formation, or at a time after the beginning of grain formation.
  • the dye and the supersensitizer may be continuously or intermittently added during the growing step.
  • a sensitizing dye and a supersensitizer can be added in various manners as described above, provided that the addition thereof is finished prior to the completion of the grain formation of silver halide.
  • the sensitizing dye and the supersensitizer may be added separately, or as a mixture thereof. They may be added simultaneously or alternately with each other. When both are added simultaneously, each ingredient may be added separately before or afterward. More specifically, it is preferred that the addition of a first ingredient should be started before the quantity of the second ingredient exceeds one-half the total amount to be added, and more than one-half of the total amount of the first ingredient should be finished by the conclusion of the addition of the second ingredient. More preferably, more than two-thirds of the respective total amounts should be added simultaneously. In particular, the simultaneous addition of the respective total amounts is favoured over other manners of addition.
  • each of a sensitizing dye and a supersensitizer to be added to a silver halide photographic emulsion in accordance with the present invention preferably range from 1x10 ⁇ 6 to 5x10 ⁇ 3 mol, particularly from 1x10 ⁇ 5 to 2.5x10 ⁇ 3 mol, per mole of silver halide.

  • various methods can be employed in adding the sensitizing dyes of the present invention, including a method as described in US-A-3, 469,987, in which a sensitizing dye is dissolved in a volatile organic solvent, the resulting solution is dispersed into water or a hydrophilic colloid, and then the resulting dispersion is added to an emulsion; a method as described in JP-B-46-24185 (the term "JP-B” as used herein means an "examined published Japanese patent publication"), in which a water-insoluble dye is dispersed into a water-soluble solvent without undergoing any dissolution treatment, and the resulting dispersion is added to an emulsion; a method as described in JP-B-44-23389, JP-B-44-27555, JP-B-57-22091, in which a sensitizing dye dissolved in an acid is added to an emulsion, or

  • the exposed samples were developed at 20°C for 7 minutes using a developer prepared by diluting the following concentrated liquid developer with an equal volume of water.
  • compound B had a supersensitizing effect on the sensitizing dye I-18 in all the experiments, the spectrally sensitizing effect was enhanced to a greater extent by adding both compounds before the completion of the grain formation of silver halide in accordance with the present invention.
