Method for supersensitizing silver halide photographic emulsions

摘要

A method for spectrally sensitizing a silver halide photographic emulsion with a supersensitizing combination as hereinafter described, wherein the combination of a trimethinecyanine dye and a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound having a mercapto group, which is capable of producing a slightly soluble silver salt by reacting with a silver ion, is incorporated in the emulsion in a supersensitizing amount.
