Abstract

IN connexion with the investigation of the mechanism of spectral sensitization of the photographic process, light-induced electron spin resonance absorptions in gelatinless precipitates of silver bromide dyed with cyanine dyes have been observed. No signals were detected under any conditions from the undyed silver bromide precipitates.
