Abstract

The unique physical and chemical properties of AgX (X=C1, Br, I) emulsion microcrystals (optical, solid state, transport, chemical and spectral sensitizations and development) account for their use as basic light quanta detectors in practical photography for over 150 years. in spite of the advances made in other recording systems, especially in electronic imaging, contemporary AgX-based photographic materials are still superior in sensitivity and resolution. Although the replacement of AgX-based imaging systems by electronic imaging was already predicted 20 years ago, their current world manufacturing level is now larger than ever. However, in order to be successfully incorporated into digital and hybrid information technologies for the new Millennium, AgX-based photographic materials should further improve their quantum efficiency and image quality. in order to achieve these objectives, the key components should be intentionally modified with a focus primarily at the nanostructural level.
