Definitions

  • This invention relates to a silver halide light-­sensitive photographicmaterial which is high in both sensitivity and image-quality and excellent in processing stability and, more particularly, to a silver halide light-sensitive photographic material which is high in sensitivity, excellent in both relation of fogginess to sensitivity and graininess and stable in development processes.
  • a monodisperse type emulsion could be advantageous for effectively achieving a high sensitivity, keeping low fogginess in the course of the so-called chemical sensiti­zation process for sensitizing a silver halide emulsion, which will be detailed later.
  • a monodisperse type emulsion is extremely effective for improving quantum efficiency during a light absorption and achieving low fogginess during a chemical sensitization.
  • monodisperse type emulsions themselves intrinsically have. More concretely, with narrowly grain-distributed and uniformly chemical-sensitized emulsion grains, all the latent image nuclei formed on and/or in each grain are of the order of the same size and every grain, therefore, starts to develop at the same time when the emulsion is developed.
  • Japanese Patent Publication open to Public Inspection (hereinafter called Japanese Patent O.P.I. Publication) Nos. 53-99938/1978 and 59-170839/1984, and U.S. Patent Nos. 3,892,572 and 4,153,460 each describe methods in each of which a fine-grained and non-light-sensitive silver chloride emulsion is used in combination with a DIR compound. In those methods, however, not only may the desired sensitivity not be obtained, but also only the limited kinds of couplers may be contained in a light-sensitive emulsion layer subject to a high sensitization are limited.
  • Japanese Patent O.P.I. Publication No. 59-160135/1984 describes a layer arrangement where a relatively non-light-­sensitive silver halide grain-containing layer is arranged adjacent to and between two light-sensitive emulsion layers having sensitivities different from each other. Also in this layer arrangement, the light-sensitive emulsion layers arranged adjacent to the non-light-sensitive silver halide grain-containing layer are limited to be of the same color-sensitivity and the fogginess cannot be inhibited from increasing satisfactorily.
  • Japanese Patent O.P.I. Publication Nos. 59-180555/1984 and 60-194450/1985 each disclose techniques in which high sensitization, excellent contrast or processing stability may be achieved by combining a specific inverted layer structure with fine-grained non-light-sensitive silver halide grains. Even in those techniques, the layer arrangements are limited to some peculiar arrangements and are not satisfactory for achieving a high sensitization.
  • Japanese Patent O.P.I. Publication No. 61-246739/1986 describes a method in which a high sensiti­zation may be achieved by combining core/shell type silver halide grains having a plurality of shells with non-light-­sensitive silver halide fine grains, while keeping low fogginess. This method is still unsatisfactory from the viewpoint of making high sensitivity.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a silver halide light-sensitive photographic material capable of displaying also a high processing stability in the course of development.

  • the substantially non-light-sensitive silver halide fine grains hereinafter called simply non-light-sensitive silver halide fine grains, relating to the invention are allowed to have monodispersiveness or polydispersiveness.
