Abstract

A multi layer, negative-working color photographic material in which at least 95 mol.% of the Ag halide is AgCl is such that at least one of the Ag halide emulsion layers shows solarisation on analog illumination (i.e. the color density decreases: (A) with increasing illumination intensity at constant illumination time; or (B) with increasing illumination time at constant illumination intensity). The material is one containing Ag halide emulsion layers which comprise at least one blue-sensitive layer containing a yellow coupler, at least one green-sensitive layer containing a magenta coupler and at least one red-sensitive layer containing a blue-green coupler.

Description

The invention relates to a negative developing color photographic silver halide material, whose silver halide emulsions consist of at least 95 mol% of AgCl and that with scanning exposure due to high color density and Analog exposure is characterized by contrast independent of the exposure time.

Photo paper is used for the output of "digital prints" on scanning photo imagesetters used in which the exposure unit pixel-by-pixel the image information, line by line with bundled light of high intensity (typically from gas or Diode lasers or comparable devices) and very short exposure times per pixel (in the range of nano to microseconds) on the photo material. In particular at high densities, the problem of line washing occurs This is expressed visually by a blurred image of edges (e.g. Lettering) in the motif and is clearly illustrated by "overexposure", "bleeding", "Hem formation", "smearing", "blurring" etc. described. This limits the exploitable density range of the photo paper. Photo materials for the issue of "Digital prints" with high image quality on scanning photo imagesetters with LEDs or lasers are therefore only allowed to have a slight line washout with high color density (blackening) exhibit.

Method of measuring line washout

1. ein Linienraster mit Rasterlinien und Zwischenräumen der jeweiligen Breite b_o [mm], der im folgenden als "Rasterstufenkeil" bezeichnet wird, sowie

2. homogen ausgefüllte Flächen ("Vollstufenkeil").

In the following, a measurement method is specified which allows the measurement of the line washout for reflective photo material (photo paper). This is based on the description of a measurement for the analog problem with a transparent photographic material (see H. Frieser, Photographische Informationsaufammlung, R. Oldenbourg Verlag, Munich (1975), p. 266ff). The determination of the washout is attributed to a macro-densitometric measurement. For this purpose, two motifs are exposed next to each other with the same step-like intensity curve (RGB values) for the exposed structures:

1. a line grid with grid lines and spaces of the respective width b _o [mm], which is referred to below as "grid step wedge", and

2. homogeneously filled areas ("full step wedge").

The status A densities D _{F of} the steps are determined on the full step wedge after a defined RGB exposure. The densities D _{R of} a raster line pattern exposed with precisely these RGB values are determined on the raster step wedge. According to Frieser (see above), an effective (microscopic) line broadening 0 <Δb <b _o can be determined on the basis of such a macro-densitometric measurement on grid line fields. This is determined by the proportions of the reflected intensity, which for each raster level result from the raster lines themselves, ie T _o , and from the gaps, ie T _l (see Figure 1).

The density of a grid level is: D R = -log (T R ) = -log (½ {T l [1- Δb / b O ] + T O [1 + Δb / b O ]})

With ideal photo material without blurring, Δb = 0 and it follows: D * R = -log (½ {T l + T 0 })

Because of 10th -Dmin = T l > T O the constant density 0.3 + D _min would therefore arise asymptotically even at medium grid line densities.

The difference from (1) and (2), the size D _R -D * _R , represents the density difference for each step due to line washout (see Figure 2).

For T _1. > T _o , the effective line broadening can be derived from this Δb = b O (1-10 D * R ―DR ) evaluate for each level. By gradually plotting (3) against the density of the corresponding full field D _F , the usable maximum density D _f ^using a material can be determined directly (see Figure 3). The tolerable line spreads according to (3) were determined by visual assessment Δb = 0.10 mm for yellow (G), purple (P) and blue-green (B).

• Der Belichter wird im leistungslinearen Modus bezüglich RGB (RGB = Rot, Grün, Blau), d.h. ohne eine materialspezifische Gerätekalibrierung ("Linearisierung") betrieben. Die maximale Belichtungsleistung für die drei Farbkanäle wird im Hinblick auf die unterschiedlichen Materialempfindlichkeiten für Gelb, Purpur und Blaugrün so reduziert, daß einerseits die Maximaldichte des Materials erreicht werden kann und andererseits beim Belichten eines identischen RGB-Tripels (z.B. RGB = (100, 100, 100)) ein zumindest näherungsweise neutrales Motiv entsteht (Blau: 6,5 µW, Grün: 10,4 µW, Rot: 680 µW).

A conventional laser exposure unit (Cymbolic Science, Vancouver (Canada) model CSI Light Jet 2080) with the following specification according to the manufacturer's instructions is used for exposure: colour Laser system wavelength Maximum Performance Beam diameter (FWHM) blue Argon ion 458 nm 150 µW 25µm green Helium neon 543 nm 80 µW 25 µm red Helium neon 633 nm 2600 µW 25 µm

• y-deflection (slow scan): linear displacement of the mirror polygon along the cylinder axis
• Resolution 1016 dpi, exposure time per pixel: 400 +/- 100 ns
• linear point overlap approx. 30%
• The imagesetter is operated in linear performance mode with respect to RGB (RGB = red, green, blue), ie without material-specific device calibration ("linearization"). The maximum exposure power for the three color channels is reduced in view of the different material sensitivities for yellow, purple and cyan, so that on the one hand the maximum density of the material can be achieved and on the other hand when exposing an identical RGB triple (e.g. RGB = (100, 100, 100)) creates an at least approximately neutral motif (blue: 6.5 µW, green: 10.4 µW, red: 680 µW).

According to the condition 0 <Δb <b _o , b _o = 0.25 mm was chosen for the raster line test image. This corresponds to a spatial frequency of 2 line pairs / mm. The lines of the grid are written in the fast-scan direction, so that the effective blurring in terms of device technology corresponds to the beam diameter. Due to the resolution of 1016 dpi (= spatial frequency 20 / mm) used, this can be neglected compared to the material's own wash.

The test motif consists of a 29-step grid wedge and a full-surface wedge. The motif is created using a conventional program (for example Photoshop®), exposed onto a photo paper using the arming photo exposer and then processed in an AgfaColor process 94. Level 1 receives no exposure intensity (RGB = 255) and therefore realizes D _min , level 29 (RGB = 9) receives the maximum exposure intensity. Each pixel line was exposed in one pass (neglecting the line overlap). Analogous to the sketched neutral test motif, color separations for the colors yellow, purple and teal as well as for neutral were exposed by constantly setting the complementary RGB channels to 255 (without exposure). The size of a step field is 20.0 x 6.35 mm.

State of the art and task

It is known from EP 774 689 that to achieve a higher color density in the pixel-wise exposure with focused high intensity light (typically off Gas, diode lasers, LED or comparable devices) and very short exposure times per pixel (typically in the nano to microsecond range) Gradation of the light-sensitive layers of the color negative paper used in the exposure time range should be as steep as possible.

A common method of dividing the gradation of the photosensitive layers in color negative papers is the increase in the amount of silver halide or color coupler in the photosensitive layers. Disadvantages of this method are: increased Material costs and deterioration in processing stability (fluctuation Sensitometry depending on the processing process and depending on the process fluctuation within operation), especially with color development times of less than 45 seconds the high contrast is not such a material for an analog exposure suitable.

From US 5,759,762 it is known that in the presence of a water-soluble disulfide, for example glutaramidophenyl disulfide, doping with complexes of the type (Me ₂ NH ₂ ) _n (AgCl _n ) in AgCl emulsion grains can improve the stability of the material under laser exposure.

It is also known from EP 350 046 and US 5 500 329 that the gradation in Exposure range of seconds or milliseconds by doping the silver halides with metal ions from Group VIII metals or transition metals Group II of the Periodic Table of the Elements. It was but found that with shorter exposure times a µsec to nano-sec range Gradation flattened despite the doping and the sensitivity becomes lower.

The object of the invention was to provide a material for both digital exposure, especially to provide laser exposure as well as for integral exposure, which is characterized by a high color density with laser exposure and one with integral exposure contrast independent of the exposure times.

Surprisingly, this object is achieved when the one described at the beginning color photographic material contains at least one silver halide emulsion layer, which has solarization with integral exposure.

Solarization means that the color density increases with increasing exposure intensity with constant exposure time or with longer exposure time with constant Exposure intensity decreases (T.H. James, The Theory of the Photographie Process, pages 182-184; Macmillan Publishing C. Inc., Forth Edition).

The invention therefore relates to a negative developing color photographic silver halide material, at least 95 mol% of its silver halides from AgCl exist, the at least one blue sensitive, containing at least one yellow coupler Silver halide emulsion layer, at least one green sensitive, at least a silver halide emulsion layer containing purple coupler and at least a red sensitive silver halide emulsion layer containing at least one cyan coupler contains, characterized in that at least one Has silver halide emulsion layer with integral exposure solarization.

In a preferred embodiment, the at least one silver halide emulsion layer contains the solarization has at least 0.1 mmol AgI per mol AgCl.

The silver halide emulsion of the silver halide emulsion layer having solarization preferably contains silver halide grains of at least two differently felled zones.

This silver halide emulsion is preferably obtained by pre-precipitation and subsequent Filling a silver halide generated, the filling in particular by redissolving a very fine-grained silver halide emulsion (micrate emulsion) on the pre-filling.

The pre-precipitation is preferably a homodisperse, cubic silver halide emulsion with at least 95 mol% AgCl and at most 4 mol% AgI. The micrate emulsion is preferably a homodisperse silver halide emulsion with at least 90 mol% AgCl and at most 8 mol% AgI (remainder is AgBr) and an average grain diameter (Diameter of the same volume ball) from 0.05 µm to 0.2 µm.

The finished silver halide emulsion is preferably homodisperse and cubic Silver halide grains with at least 95 mol% AgCl and an edge length the cube from 0.20 µm to 2 µm.

The molar ratio of the outer zone to the remaining silver of the grains is especially 1:24 to 6: 1.

At least one zone of said silver halide emulsion is preferred with at least one kind of ions or metal complexes of the metals of the groups VIII and IIB or the metals Re, Au, Pb or Tl doped.

When doping with more than one type of ion or metal complex from the Group VIII and IIB metals or the metals Re, Au, Pb or Tl can Ions or metal complexes in one zone or separately in several zones become.
