Abstract
S. E. Sheppard, R. H. Lambert and R. D. Walker find the necessary and sufficient conditions for optical sensitizing of silver halides by dyes to be: (1) planar configuration of dye molecule; (2) edge-on adsorption of dye ion or dipole; molecular plane orthogonal to a (110) plane of silver-halide crystal; (3) electronic transition in dye ion or molecule on absorption of light polarized in azimuth, defined by (1) and (2).
