Disclosed is a silver halide photographic emulsion containing tabular silver bromide series grains having a mean aspect ratio of 2 or more, which is characterized by the grains having no projection on the grain surface and by the silver chloride content in the surface part of the grains being higher than that in the part of the grain which is underneath the grain surface. Also disclosed is a multi-layer photographic light-sensitive material having at least two silver halide emulsion layers on a support in which at least one of the silver halide emulsion layers contains the tabular silver bromide series grains as defined above. By the incorporation of the emulsion, the sensitivity, the storage stability and the manufacture stability properties of the photographic material are improved without deteriorating its graininess property.

Silver halide photographic emulsion and multilayer photographic

A silver halide photographic emulsion is described which has excellent color-sensitizing efficiency by sensitizing dyes, sharpness, covering power, and pressure resistant properties, wherein the grains are comprised of core/shell type grains having contained therein a partially halogen-converted silver salt phase, the silver salt comprising silver halochloride, silver thiocyanate or silver citrate.

Silver halide photographic emulsion

A silver halide emulsion comprises a dispersion medium and silver halide grains, the silver halide emulsion containing tabular silver halide grains having a thickness of less than 0.5 .mu.m, a diameter of 0.3 .mu.m or more, and a mean diameter-to-thickness ratio of 2 or more. The tabular grains occupy at least 50% of a projected area of all the silver halide grains, and 50% or more (number) of the tabular grains include 10 or more dislocations per grain. A photographic light-sensitive material comprises the aforementioned silver halide emulsion.
