Abstract
The difference in the sensitome The difference in the sensitometric properties of photolayers with tabular microcrystals (T-MC) and spherical microcrystals has been considered theoretically. It is shown that the more the relation of vertical size of a MC to its horizontal size the more the sensitivity of the photolayer, at equal elementary characteristic curves, for layers with spherical ami oblate microcrystals disposed in parallel with the plane of the layer. The proposed method allows one to consider many practical situations, in particular the estimation of the sensitivity of the layers with T-MC.
