Process for reduction-sensitizing silver halide photographic emulsion and silver halide photographic light-sensitive material using the same

摘要

A process for reduction-sensitizing a silver halide photographic emulsion is disclosed, comprising reduction-sensitizing a silver halide basis grain having a silver bromide content of 75 mol % or more and thereafter or at the same time, depositing silver halide having a silver chloride content of 50 mol % or more on the surface of said basis grain not to have a distinct epitaxial form. Further disclosed is a silver halide photographic light-sensitive material containing a silver halide emulsion prepared by the process.
