Radiation Detection with Non-Silver Halide Film

Silver Halide Materials

Silver Halide is the most common holographic material currently used by everyone from hobbyists to professional scientists. This is because of its high sensitivity and the fact that it’s easily available commercially. Silver Halide is a salt of Silver and a Halide, which are a group of elements that include Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine and Iodine, which are light sensitive. The first, accidental...

Fabrication of metallic microstructures using exposed, developed silver halide-based photographic film

This paper demonstrates that the pattern of silver particles embedded in the gelatin matrix of exposed and developed silver halide-based photographic film can serve as a template in a broadly applicable method for the microfabrication of metallic microstructures. In this method, a CAD file is reproduced in the photographic film by exposure and developing. The resulting pattern of discontinuous ...

Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy of Halide Ions on Colloidal Silver: Simulation of Silver-halide Ion Spectra

The surface enhanced Raman spectra of halide ions adsorbed on colloidal silver surfaces can be explained by an interacting dipole model of a discrete adsorbate superlattice. Both (100) and (111) surfaces have been modeled, and simulated spectra for a range of adsorbate coverage fractions and sol particle facet sizes give good agreement with experimental spectra. The model is useful for assessin...

Lanthanum halide nanoparticle scintillators for nuclear radiation detection

An objective protocol for comparing the noise performance of silver halide film and digital sensor

Digital sensors have obviously invaded the photography mass market. However, some photographers with very high expectancy still use silver halide film. Are they only nostalgic reluctant to technology or is there more than meets the eye? The answer is not so easy if we remark that, at the end of the golden age, films were actually scanned before development. Nowadays film users have adopted digi...
