Surface-Dye Concentration Relationships in Sensitized Photographic Emulsions

Abstract
A study has been made of the relationship between the total surface of silver halide in a photographic emulsion and the concentration of sensitizing dye necessary to produce maximum sensitizing. It was found that the amount of dye producing maximum sensitizing is directly proportional to the silver halide surface. Approximate calculations indicate that at optimum sensitizing concentration, the sensitizing dye is adsorbed to the silver halide grains in a monomolecular layer.
