Therefore, when silver halides are to be exposed to other wavelengths of radiation, such as green light, red light or infrared radiation, a spectral sensitizing dye is required to render silver halide sensitive to such radiation. As known in the art, silver halides having adsorbed on the grains spectral sensitizing dyes can be made sensitive to radiation of a wavelength other than the intrinsic blue sensitivity.
