Abstract
A silver halide photographic material has on a support at least one light-sensitive silver halide emulsion layer which comprises silver halide emulsion grains having a chloride content: of at least 50 mol % and containing a metal selected from rhodium, ruthenium and rhenium in an amount of at least 10.sup.-8 mole per mole of silver, said silver halide emulsion being spectrally sensitized with a compound of general formula (I) and being chemically sensitized with a selenium or tellurium compound: ##STR1## wherein Z and Z.sub.1 each represents a group of nonmetallic atoms necessary to complete a 5- or 6-membered nitrogen-containing heterocyclic nucleus; R and R.sub.1 each represents an unsubstituted or substituted alkyl group, or an unsubstituted aryl group; Q and Q.sub.1 each represents a group of atoms necessary to complete a 4-thiazolidinone, 5-thiazolidinone or 4-imidazolidinone nucleus; L, L.sub.1 and L.sub.2 each represents an unsubstituted or substituted methine group; n.sub.1 and n.sub.2 each represents 0 or 1; X represents an anion; and m represents 0 or 1, wherein m=0 indicates that the dye forms an inner salt. The photographic material provides high sensitivity to He--Ne laser light and ensures high contrast in the photographic images.
