摘要:
Silver iodobromide tabular grain emulsions of enhanced photographic sensitivity are disclosed. The silver iodobromide grains contain from 2 to less than 10 mole percent iodide, exhibit a coefficient of variation of less than 20 percent, and consisting essentially of tabular grains having opposed parallel major faces. Each of the tabular silver bromoiodide grains exhibit an iodide concentration in excess of 6 mole percent within a surface region extending to a depth of less than 0.02 .mu.m and exhibit a central iodide concentration of less than 2 mole percent.The tabular grain emulsion is prepared by providing within a reaction vessel a population of silver bromide or iodobromide host grains exhibiting a coefficient of variation of less than 20 percent and containing less than 2 mole percent iodide consisting essentially of tabular grains and introducing silver, bromide and iodide ions into the reaction vessel for deposition onto the major faces on the host tabular grains, with iodide ions accounting for at least 25 mole percent of total halide ions introduced.

A multicolor photographic element capable of forming a viewable reversal dye image is disclosed comprising a support and, coated on the support, a blue recording yellow dye image forming layer unit, a green recording magenta dye image forming layer unit, and a red recording cyan dye image forming layer unit, each of the layer units containing in at least one layer a silver halide emulsion having a grain halide content of from 0 to 5 mole percent chloride, from. 0.5 to 20 mole percent iodide, and from 80 to 99.5 mole percent bromide, based on total silver.The photographic element is characterized in that at least one of the silver halide emulsion layers is a tabular grain emulsion layer in which the coefficient of variation of the tabular grain emulsion is less than 15 percent, based on the total grain population of the emulsion, and the total grain population of the tabular emulsion consists essentially of tabular grains having a mean thickness of less than 0.3 .mu.m and a mean tabularity of greater than 25.
摘要:
A process is disclosed of preparing a photographic emulsion containing tabular silver halide grains exhibiting a reduced degree of total grain dispersity. After forming a population of silver halide grain nuclei containing parallel twin planes, a portion of the silver halide grain nuclei are ripened out. The silver halide grain nuclei containing parallel twin planes remaining are then grown to form tabular silver halide grains. The total grain dispersity of the emulsion is reduced by incorporating bromide ion in the dispersing medium prior to forming the silver halide grain nuclei and, at the time parallel twin planes are formed in the silver halide grain nuclei, a polyalkylene oxide block copolymer surfactant containing at least three terminal lipophilic alkylene oxide block units each linked through a hydrophilic alkylene oxide block linking unit accounting for at least 4 percent of the molecular weight of the copolymer.

The coprecipitated grain population consists essentially of tabular grains which are at least 50 mole percent bromide, based on silver, and which have a mean thickness in the range of from 0.080 to 0.3 .mu.m, and a mean tabularity of greater than 8.

A multicolor photographic element capable of forming a viewable reversal dye image is disclosed comprising a support and, coated on the support, a blue recording yellow dye image forming layer unit, a green recording magenta dye image forming layer unit, and a red recording cyan dye image forming layer unit, each of the dye image forming layer units containing at least one silver halide emulsion layer comprised of a vehicle and silver halide grains having (1) a halide content of from 0 to 5 mole percent chloride, from 0.1 to 20 mole percent iodide, and from 80 to 99.9 mole percent bromide, based on total silver. At least one of the silver halide emulsion layers in one of the layer units positioned to receive exposing radiation prior to at least one of the green or red recording layer units is a tabular grain emulsion layer in which a polyalkylene oxide block copolymer is present selected to allow the preparation of tabular grains having a mean thickness of less than 0.3 .mu.m and a mean tabularity of greater than 25, accounting for greater than 97 percent of the total projected area of grains having an equivalent circular diameter of at least 0.2 .mu.m.
摘要:
A process is disclosed of accelerating the preparation of a photographic emulsion containing tabular silver halide grains exhibiting a reduced degree of total grain dispersity. A dispersing medium is provided containing bromide ions, and a population of silver halide grain nuclei containing parallel twin planes is formed in the dispersing medium. A portion of the grain nuclei are ripened out, and then the silver halide grain nuclei containing parallel twin planes remaining are grown to form tabular silver halide grains. A polyalkylene oxide containing both hydrophilic and lipophilic block units is selected from among those known to be capable of reducing total grain dispersity when present during nucleation. However, in this process precipitation is accelerated while maintaining low dispersity of the total grain population by forming twin planes in the grain nuclei within the pAg and temperature boundaries of Curve A in FIG. 1 and by delaying introduction of the polyalkylene oxide block copolymer surfactant until after the silver halide nuclei containing twin planes have been formed.

A system and method for printing images for use in an authentication document from a plurality of different printers and/or capture devices. Each of the plurality of different printers and/or capture device having a unique ID. The images are printed on an authentication document with the unique ID. The system provides for verification that the presenter of an authentication document. The unique ID and/or other information may be provided in a form that is not visible under normal viewing conditions. By canning the image the unique ID may be obtained and used for authentication. The obtained ID may be compared with a known information stored at a database for confirming that the presenter of the authentication document is the individual to whom it was issued.
