Abstract
Abstract A light-sensitive silver halide photographic material having silver halide emulsion layers on a support, wherein at least one layer of said silver halide emulsion layers contains surface latent image type mono-dispersed silver halide grains, and 50% or more of the silver halide grains contained in said at least one silver halide emulsion layer are regular surface latent image type mono-dispersed silver halide grains of tetradecahedral crystals whose external surfaces have crystal faces with Miller indices (100) and (111), the area ratio of said (100) face and said (111) face satisfying the relation represented by the correlation formula (I) shown below: correlation formula (I): ##EQU1## wherein K is the ratio between the intensities of respective diffraction lines attributable to the (200) face and the (222) face measured in X-ray diffraction analysis as set forth in the following formula ##EQU2##

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
A light-sensitive silver halide photographic material having silver halide emulsion layers on a support, wherein at least one layer of said silver halide emulsion layers contains surface latent image-forming mono-dispersed silver halide grains, and 50% or more of the silver halide grains contained in said at least one silver halide emulsion layer are core-shell silver halide grains containing cores comprising a silver halide containing silver iodide and shells comprising primarily silver bromide covering said cores and are the surface latent image-forming mono-dispersed silver halide grains of tetradecahedral regular crystals whose external surfaces have crystal faces (100) and (111), the area ratio of said (100) face and said (111) face represented by: ##EQU12## and satisfying the following formula: ##EQU13## wherein K is the ratio between the intensities of respective diffraction lines attributable to the (200) face at 30.9° of the diffraction angle which corresponds to the (100) face and the (222) face at 55° of the diffraction angle which corresponds to the (111) face measured in X-ray diffraction analysis as set forth in the following formula ##EQU14##
