(1972), p. 213, and can be observed by a direct method using a transmission electron microscope at low temperature. That is, silver halide grains taken out from the emulsion without paying enough pressure to generate new dislocation lines on the grains are placed on a mesh of an electron microscope to prevent damage (printout, etc.) by the electron beam. The specimen is observed by a transmission method in a cooled state. At this time, the thicker the silver halide grains, the more difficult it is for an electron beam to pass therethrough. Therefore, the use of a high-pressure electron microscope enables clearer observation.
