Silver halide emulsion and photographic material using the same
First Claim
1. A silver halide emulsion which comprises at least one dispersion medium and a plurality of silver halide grains, wherein at least 30% of the total grain projected area of said silver halide grains is accounted for by tabular grains having (i) a {100} face as a major face, (ii) a diameter/thickness aspect ratio of at least 1.5, (iii) a nucleus formed during nucleus formation, said nucleus being present within a square of not more than 10% of the entire projected area of each of said silver halide grains upon viewing said silver halide grains from a direction perpendicular to the major faces, the square containing one corner of each of said silver halide grains, and (iv) a dislocation line, there occurring only one edge intersection of said dislocation line or an extension line of said dislocation line at or within 15% edge length from the nucleus-containing corner upon viewing the silver halide grains from a direction perpendicular to the major faces.

Abstract
A silver halide emulsion which comprises at least one dispersion medium and silver halide grains, wherein not less than 30% of the total projected area of the silver halide grains accounts for tabular grains each (i) having a {100} face as a major face, (ii) having an aspect ratio (diameter/thickness) of not less than 1.5, and (iii) having a nucleus during nucleus formation, the nucleus being present within the square of not more than 10% of the entire projected area of each of said silver halide grains when viewed the silver halide grains from the vertical direction to the major faces, the square containing one corner of each of said silver halide grains.
