Definitions
- This invention relates to a photographic silver halide photosensitive material which is spectrally sensitized in the infrared region, and more particularly, to a photographic silver halide photosensitive material of J-band spectral sensitization type which is intensely sensitized only in a necessary wavelength region in the infrared spectrum and is low sensitive in other wavelength regions.
- One known exposure method of photographic photosensitive material is an image forming method including scanning an original to derive image signals and subjecting photographic silver halide photosensitive material to exposure in accordance with the image signals, thereby forming a negative or positive image corresponding to the image of the original, which is known as the scanner system.
- semiconductor laser has several advantages including compactness, low cost, ease of modulation, a longer lifetime than the aforementioned lasers, and emission of infrared light which allows the use of bright safe light when photosensitive material having sensitivity in the infrared region is used, leading to ease of handling. Nevertheless, there are few photosensitive materials which have high sensitivity only in the infrared region as well as shelf stability. Thus the superior properties of the semiconductor laser have not been utilized.
- spectral sensitization technique of expanding the sensitive wavelength region to a longer wavelength side by adding a certain cyanine dye to a photographic silver halide emulsion.
- This spectral sensitization technique is known to be applicable to not only the visible region, but also the infrared region.
- sensitizing dyes having absorption relative to infrared light are used, which are described in Mees, "The Theory of the Photographic Process, Third Edition, MacMillan (1966), pages 198-201.
- the spectral sensitivity that is, the sensitivity to light in the desired infrared region is high and that the sensitivity experiences little change during shelf storage of photosensitive material and even in a liquid stage in the form of a silver halide emulsion during the preparation process.
- sensitizing dyes have been developed. They are described in, for example, USP Nos. 2,095,854, 2,095,856, 2,955,939, 3,482,978, 3,552,974, 3,573,921, and 3,582,344. The sensitizing dyes described in these patents are far from satisfactory in sensitivity and shelf stability.
- JP-A 191032/1984, 192242/1984, and 80841/1985 describe combinations of infrared sensitizing dyes (e.g., tricarbocyanine dyes and 4-quinolinedicarbocyanine dyes) with cyclic onium salt compounds or certain heterocyclic compounds. These known techniques, however, are not successful in achieving satisfactorily high sensitivity.
- laser beams including semiconductor laser beams have a predetermined wavelength of emission, it suffices that sensitization be made only at a characteristic wavelength matching with the oscillation wavelength of laser. Differently stated, it is often preferred that the sensitivity in wavelength regions other than the oscillation wavelength of laser is as low as possible because a wide range of safe light is available and color mixing in multilayer color photosensitive materials for conventional wet development systems and heat development systems is prevented.
- JP-A 137149/1986 describes a recording system which uses a light source in the form of an assembly of three semiconductor lasers emitting at 880, 820 and 760 nm combined for recording an image on a color photosensitive material having three photosensitive layers having spectral sensitization at the respective wavelengths.
- JP-A 197947/1988 describes a recording system which uses a light source in the form of an assembly of three semiconductor lasers emitting at 810, 750 and 670 nm or 830, 780 and 670 nm combined for recording an image on a color photosensitive material having three photosensitive layers having spectral sensitization matched to the respective wavelengths.
- multilayer color photosensitive materials are designed such that yellow, magenta and cyan colors are developed by exposing them to three mutually different spectral regions.
- a semiconductor layer (LD) as mentioned above is used as an exposure light source, there is no design other than that three spectral sensitivities are positioned in a narrow spectral range of from red end to infrared. Then it is a key for improvement in color separation how to minimize the overlap between the respective spectral sensitivities.
- J-band sensitization The technique of providing intense sensitization only at a specific wavelength thus enabling light exposure in a narrow range without color mixing is known as J-band sensitization in the photographic silver halide emulsion spectral sensitization technique.
- the J-band results from the formation of a special associated product designated J-aggregate which has a very high absorbance and exhibits a steep absorption peak having a narrow half-value width. There also appears a sharp spectral sensitivity distribution spectrum reflecting this absorption characteristic.
- This J-band sensitization is now an essential spectral sensitization technique in the manufacture of full color photosensitive materials.
- many practical examples are known as to the spectral sensitization in the visible light region, only a few examples are known in the infrared light region.
- brief descriptions are found only in A.H. Herz, Photogr. Sci. Eng., Vol. 18, No. 3, 323-335 (1974) and H. Manueler, Proceedings of ICPS, pp 366-369 (1986).
- No example is found as to spectral sensitization in the co-presence of dye-providing substances such as color couplers.
- J-band sensitization was achieved, but it was insufficient for practical use because predominant J-band type spectral sensitization having a narrow spectral sensitization distribution was by no means established. Therefore, there is a need for the development of an infrared region J-band sensitization technique having improved safe light availability and color separation and a photosensitive material utilizing the same technique.
- the spectral sensitizing dye used is that capable of efficiently absorbing the longer wavelength light.
- Infrared sensitizing dyes are disclosed in JP-A 137149/1986, 197947/1988, 13505/1980, 191032/1984, 192242/1984, and 80841/1985.
- dyes having a long conjugated methine chain are used to provide absorption in the infrared region.
- the dyes having a long conjugated methine chain are deemed quite difficult to form J-aggregates on silver halide grains to achieve predominant J-band sensitization.
- the processing speed is now increasing with the advance of automatic processors. As a result of such speedup, there is left a short time for discoloration during treatment of dyes so that residual color associated with the sensitizing dyes becomes noticeable. There is a need for a sensitizing system having minimized residual color.
- a first object of the present invention is to provide a photographic silver halide photosensitive material having high sensitivity to infrared light. Another object of the present invention is to provide a rapidly processable photographic silver halide photosensitive material having high spectral sensitivity in a desired wavelength region and minimized spectral sensitivity in unnecessary wavelength regions, more specifically having high spectral sensitivity to semiconductor laser light and fully low spectral sensitivity to light other than the semiconductor laser light.
- a second object of the present invention is to provide a very rapidly processable photographic silver halide photosensitive material in which an emulsion during storage in solution state prior to coating and the photosensitive material during shelf storage after coating are minimized in lowering of photographic sensitivity in the infrared region and increase of fog density.
- a third object of the present invention is to provide a photographic silver halide photosensitive material having high sensitivity to infrared light and leaving minimized residual color in rapid processing.
- a fourth object of the present invention is to provide a photographic silver halide photosensitive material for use in wet and heat development systems having improved color separation upon exposure to semiconductor laser having a longer wavelength than 730 nm, high sensitivity, and improved live storage stability.
- the photographic silver halide photosensitive material which is defined as comprising a support and at least one layer of a photographic silver halide emulsion thereon.
- the at least one photographic silver halide emulsion layer is spectrally sensitized with at least one spectral sensitizer such that the layer has a sensitization maximum at a longer wavelength than 730 nm and the sensitivity at the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength is higher by a factor of at least 4.5 than the spectral sensitivity to light having a wavelength 30 nm longer than said spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength and higher by a factor of at least 2 than the spectral sensitivity to light having a wavelength 30 nm shorter than said spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength.
- the spectral sensitizer used herein has a polarographic half-wave reduction potential at values ⁇ -1.26 V or at a value of -1.26 V or more negative and a polarographic half-wave oxidation potential at values ⁇ 0.38 V or at a value of 0.38 V or more positive relative to the saturated calomel electrode.
- a silver halide photosensitive material comprising a support and at least one layer of a photographic silver halide emulsion thereon, wherein the at least one photographic silver halide emulsion layer is spectrally sensitized with at least one spectral sensitizer such that said layer has a sensitization maximum at a longer wavelength than 730 nm, and the light absorption due to said spectral sensitizer satisfies both the requirements of formulae (1) and (2): Abs(peak wavelength)/Abs(peak wavelength + 30 nm) ⁇ 4.5 (1) Abs(peak wavelength)/Abs(peak wavelength - 30 nm) ⁇ 2 (2).
- the main objects of the present invention are achieved by the silver halide emulsion layer possessing a sensitization maximum at a longer wavelength than 730 nm and meeting the specific spectral sensitivity ratios and/or optical density ratios. It is difficult to provide satisfactory sensitization simply by adding a spectral sensitizing dye to a silver halide emulsion.
- the above-specified spectral sensitivity ratio and/or optical density ratio can be met by adding 6.2x10 ⁇ 7 mol to 2.7x10 ⁇ 6 mol, preferably 9.3x10 ⁇ 7 to 2.1x10 ⁇ 6 mol, more preferably 1.1x10 ⁇ 6 mol to 1.9x10 ⁇ 6 mol of a spectral sensitizing dye per square meter of silver halide grain surface area to a silver halide emulsion and aging the emulsion at a temperature of 40 to 90°C, preferably 50 to 80°C, more preferably 60 to 70°C for at least 15 minutes, preferably at least 30 minutes.
- 6.2x10 ⁇ 7 mol of the spectral sensitizing dye corresponds to a coverage of slightly less than 40% of the grain surface, provided that one molecule of the sensitizing dye occupies an area of 106 square angstrom and silver halide grains adsorb all the sensitizing dye added as a mono layer.
- Whether or not the above-specified sensitivity ratios are met may be determined by exposing a film coated with a silver halide emulsion layer having a spectral sensitizing dye added thereto to light through a wedge in a equal-energy spectral exposure apparatus, developing the film, and comparing sensitivity at different exposure wavelengths.
- the sensitivity is an inverse of an exposure which provides a density equal to a fog density plus 0.2 in the case of black-and-white development, an inverse of an exposure which provides a density equal to a fog density plus 0.5 in the case of color development, and an inverse of an exposure which provides a density equal to a fog density plus 1.0 in the case of heat development color systems.
- the film was developed with a developer having the following composition at 20°C or lower for 10 minutes (or 5 minutes when silver chlorobromide containing 80% or more silver chloride or silver chloride is used), followed by stopping, fixation and water washing.
- the respective processing solutions had the following compositions.
- Whether or not the above-specified optical density ratios or absorbance ratios are met may be determined by measuring the absorbance of a film coated with a silver halide emulsion layer having a spectral sensitizing dye added thereto using a spectrophotometer with integrating sphere (for example, spectrophotometer model U-3410 by Hitachi, Ltd.).
- the wavelength region on measurement ranges from a wavelength 30 nm longer than the peak wavelength to a wavelength 30 nm shorter than the peak wavelength in the infrared region.
- Measured are an absorbance (Abs) at the peak wavelength, an absorbance (Abs) at a wavelength 30 nm longer than the peak wavelength, and an absorbance (Abs) at a wavelength 30 nm shorter than the peak wavelength.
- Their ratios are then calculated in accordance with formulae (1) and (2).
- the sensitivity at the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength is higher by a factor of at least 3 than the spectral sensitivity to light having a wavelength 20 nm longer than said spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength.
- Any spectral sensitizing dye may be used herein insofar as it has a sensitization maximum at a wavelength of 730 nm or longer can meet the above-specified sensitivity ratios and/or optical density ratios.
- the spectral sensitizer used herein has a polarographic half-wave reduction potential at values ⁇ -1.26 V and a polarographic half-wave oxidation potential at values ⁇ 0.38 V relative to the saturated calomel electrode (SCE).
- the spectral sensitization efficacy and polarographic half-wave reduction potential of spectral sensitizing dyes are related such that the more basic the half-wave reduction potential, the higher becomes the efficacy, as described in T. Tani, T. Suzumoto, K. Ohzeki, Journal of Physical Chemistry, Vol. 94 (1990), page 1298.
- Most of conventional sensitizing dyes providing molecular type spectral sensitization as described in the patents relating to infrared sensitization have a half-wave reduction potential of -1.1 to -1.25 V vs SCE, which is not so negative that their sensitization efficacy is very low as compared with visible region sensitizing dyes having a more negative half-wave reduction potential.
- the present invention which is successful in infrared sensitization by J-band sensitization enables the use of sensitizing dyes having a polarographic half-wave reduction potential at values ⁇ -1.26 V vs SCE and a higher sensitization efficacy therewith.
- the sensitizing dye used For enhancing spectral sensitivity, it is desired that the sensitizing dye used have a polarographic half-wave reduction potential at values ⁇ -1.26 V vs SCE.
- most of conventional sensitizing dyes providing molecular type spectral sensitization as described above have an oxidation potential less than 0.40 V vs SCE, and some have an oxidation potential less than 0.30 V vs SCE.
- the oxidation potential of this level is considerably little as compared with visible region sensitizing dyes.
- We have found that the stability during shelf stability is substantially improved by effecting J-band sensitization with a sensitizing dye having an oxidation potential at values ⁇ 0.38 V vs SCE.
- the sensitizing dye used have a polarographic half-wave oxidation potential at values ⁇ 0.38 V vs SCE.
- the polarographic half-wave potential may be measured in accordance with the phase-discriminating second harmonic AC voltammetry described in T. Tani, K. Ohzeki, K. Seki, Journal of the Electrochemical Society, vol. 138, pages 1411-1415 and J. Lenhard, Journal of Imaging Science, vol. 30, pages 27-35.

- the present invention is successful in achieving J-band sensitization of a silver halide emulsion in the infrared region having longer wavelengths than 730 nm independent of the halogen composition of the emulsion.
- infrared sensitization with sensitizing dyes including those used for comparison purposes, molecular type spectral sensitization has heretofore been resorted and J-band sensitization has not been developed. Since most molecular type spectral sensitizing dyes for the infrared and red end regions have intense inherent desensitization, they should be added in as small an amount as possible in order to insure sensitivity. This is the reason why the amount of sensitizing dye added is small in Sample Nos.
- the amounts of the sensitizing dyes added in these comparative samples are the amounts at which a maximum sensitivity is occasioned by the respective dyes.
- comparative dyes R-1 and R-2 are known to provide very high spectral sensitivity and experience a relatively less lowering of sensitivity during shelf storage. When these comparative dyes as well as comparative dye R-3 are added in an increased amount equal to the inventive samples, spectral sensitivity is extremely lowered and no J-band sensitization occurs.
- the inventive samples are fully sharp in both absorption distribution and spectral sensitivity distribution as seen from Tables 1, 3, 4 and 5.
- the fact that the spectral sensitivity is reduced to below one-half of the maximum spectral sensitivity by shifting the wavelength only 30 nm shorter from the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength implies that the safety of safe light is accordingly increased. It is not so rare in the present invention that the spectral sensitivity is reduced to below one-third of the maximum spectral sensitivity by such a wavelength shift.
- a sharper spectral sensitivity distribution implies that as the wavelength becomes shorter by more than 30 nm, there occurs a great lowering in sensitivity from the maximum spectral sensitivity as compared with the prior art molecular type sensitization.
- the J-band sensitization according to the invention is extremely sharper at a longer wavelength side.
- the spectral sensitivity is reduced to below 1/4.5 of the maximum spectral sensitivity by increasing the wavelength only 30 nm from the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength, which differential sensitivity is approximately twice that of prior art molecular type sensitization. It is sometimes possible to provide a differential sensitivity of more than 10 times (S(max)/S(+30nm) > 10) as evidenced by sample No. 1-8 achieving a differential sensitivity of more than 100 times. This is very advantageous in the design of multilayer full color photosensitive material.
- the exposure energy width over which only the cyan layer is exposed without exposing the magenta layer is expanded by a factor of 4.5 or more, and often by a factor of 10 or more by effecting J-band sensitization according to the present invention, in contrast to the prior art molecular type sensitization which allows the exposure energy width to be expanded only by a factor of about 2.5.
- a sensitivity ratio of at least 6.5 for acceptable image reproduction especially a sensitivity ratio of at least 10 for faithful image reproduction. If the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelengths of the two layers are spaced 50 nm, then even the prior art molecular type sensitization can provide a sensitivity ratio of 6.5 or more, but at most 10.
- the J-band sensitization according to the present invention provides a sensitivity ratio of more than 10 quite easily and often several ten times.
- the exposure energy width over which only the magenta layer at a shorter wavelength side is exposed without exposing the cyan layer is expanded by a factor of 1.5-1.85 in the molecular type sensitization and by a factor of 2 or slightly more in the J-band sensitization of the invention, which factor is not so high although a factor of 6.5 or more is sometimes possible.
- the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelengths of the two layers are spaced 50 nm, then a great differential sensitivity on a longer wavelength wide allows for the design of increasing the sensitivity of the magenta layer at the expense of restraining the differential sensitivity of the cyan layer at the necessary level, or reducing the sensitivity of the cyan layer.
- the J-band sensitization of the invention allows such a great differential sensitivity to be easily imparted to even a magenta layer adapted for shorter wavelength exposure whereas the molecular type sensitization with a 50-nm spacing needs another means for providing differential sensitivity, for example, by adding a filter dye to a cyan layer to thereby reduce the sensitivity thereof at a 50-nm shorter wavelength from the spectral sensitivity maximum wavelength because the cyan layer has no margin for differential sensitivity.
- Even when such extra means is used it is quite difficult to achieve a sensitivity ratio of 10 or more with the prior art molecular type sensitization.
- the absorption of the filter dye itself is generally not so sharp. Not only the wavelength region where it is desired to reduce sensitivity is reduced in sensitivity, but also the wavelength region where exposure is desired are somewhat reduced in sensitivity.
- the technique of the present invention thus enables easy design and manufacture of a full color photosensitive material having an increased degree of freedom of choice of a semiconductor laser light source for exposure and improved color reproducibility.
- molecular type infrared sensitizing dyes including those sensitizing dyes used in commercially available infrared photosensitive materials have a reduction potential of from -1.1 to -1.25 V vs SCE and thus noticeably low spectral sensitivity as compared with visible region sensitizing dyes having a less reduction potential.
- many such dyes also have an oxidation potential as negative as 0.4 V vs SCE or lower, some as negative as 0.3 V vs SCE or lower, leading to a substantial loss of sensitivity during storage.
- the sensitizing dyes which can be used in the present invention have a more basic reduction potential and yet a more noble oxidation potential comparable to those of visible region sensitizing dyes, and consequently provide high sensitivity and restrain the sensitivity from lowering during shelf storage as compared with those of prior art infrared sensitizing dyes providing relatively high spectral sensitivity.
- the J-band sensitization according to the invention is successful in increasing sensitivity by a factor of 10 or more, and sometimes 50 or more. It is quite unexpected that such a great sensitivity increase is achieved with a minimized loss of sensitivity during storage.
- the photosensitive material of the invention is also effective in providing high sensitivity, live storage stability and color separation when it is applied to heat development systems of complex organization, as is evident from Example 5.
- Photosensitive material samples were prepared by the same procedure as in Example 1 except that octahedral and 14-sided silver bromide grains prepared by adjusting the silver potential during silver halide grain formation in Example 1 or plate silver iodobromide grains prepared in accordance with Example 4 of JP-A 131533/1985 were used instead of the cubic silver bromide grains, 80 mg per mol of silver of tetraazaindene compound (II-11) was used instead of the 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,3,3a,7-tetraazaindene added prior to the addition of the sensitizing dye, and the addition of 4-hydroxy-6-methyl-1,3,3a,7-tetraazaindene after chemical ripening was omitted.
- Sensitizing dyes R-1, R-4, I-8, I-16 and I-18 were added to emulsions in amounts of 1.52x10 ⁇ 6 mol per m2 of silver halide grain surface area. These samples showed test results equivalent to those of sample Nos. 1-2, 1-6, 1-12 and 1-9 of Example 1.
- a photographic silver halide photosensitive material adapted for rapid processing which exhibits high spectral sensitivity in a desired wavelength region, especially the infrared wavelength region and restricted sensitivity in unnecessary regions, that is, featuring the advantages of safe light safety, color separation and high sensitivity.
- a silver halide emulsion which has been spectrally sensitized and stored prior to coating and a photosensitive material having such an emulsion coated, a loss of sensitivity in the infrared region and an increase of fog density during storage are minimized. Residual color attributable to the sensitizing dye is also minimized.
