Preparation of high chloride content (100) tabular grains having corner defects

摘要

A method for producing a silver halide emulsion comprising tabular silver halide grains having a silver chloride content of 80% or more, the tabular silver halide grains having {100} planes as the main planes and an aspect ratio of 1.5 or more accounting for 10% or more of the total projected area of the grains, with the main planes in the form of a right-angled parallelogram having defects in at least one corner thereof, and with the grains being produced in the presence of a grain growth modifier.
