Abstract

Silver chlorobromoiodide cubic seed emulsion was prepared'in the presence of ammonia and phenylcarbamyl gelatin solution. When benzenethiosulfonate sodium salt (BTS) and 4-hydroxy6-methyl-1,3,3a,7-tetraazaindene (TAI), as growth modifiers, were added in the seed emulsion, the silver halide microcrystals were obtained in the forms of cubo-octahedrons, octahedrons, rhombic dodecahedron by variation of pAg value through controlled double jet. The crystal habits and shapes were determined by means of X-ray diffraction (D/MAX BIB, Rigaku) and electron microscopy (JSM-840, JEOL), respectively.
