An electrophotographic photosensitive member is constituted by disposing a photosensitive layer including a charge generation layer and a charge transport layer on an electroconductive support. The charge transport layer has a thickness of at most 12 .mu.m and is formed by dispersing therein particles having a particle size of 1-3 .mu.m at a density of 1.times.10.sup.4 -2.times.10.sup.5 particles/mm.sup.2. The charge transport layer and the particles described above provides a difference in refractive index of at least 0.10. The photosensitive member is effective in providing good images free from black spots and interference fringes and with a good gradation-reproducing characteristic when used as a structural member of a process cartridge and an image forming apparatus.

A polymeric liquid crystal composition includes a polymer mesomorphic compound having an asymmetric carbon atom and a low-molecular weight mesomorphic compound. The composition can be easily formed into a film of a large area, exhibits a response speed which is not substantially different from that of the low-molecular weight mesomorphic compound alone and stably retains alignment resistant to pressure or heat impact. Such a good alignment is especially obtained when the polymeric liquid crystal composition is incorporated in a liquid crystal device by being disposed between a pair of substrates preferably having an alignment face provided with an orientation characteristic for aligning the molecular axis of the liquid crystal composition in one direction. It is suitable that the polymer mesomorphic compound is optically active and has a helical rotation direction opposite to that of the low-molecular weight mesomorphic compound.

An apparatus for forming an image of the present invention comprises an image medium which is made of a heat-sensitive material in and from whcih an image can be thermally recordded and erased. The image medium has at least two display regions having different colors in the same face and having different thermal transition temperatures between a transparent state and a scattering state. A thermal signal applying member is employed for forming an image by thermally scanning said image medium which is characterized by applying to said medium a temperature controlled so that at least two differnt colors are displayed in a one-signal period of thermal scanning. The present invention also provides a method of forming an image using the image forming apparatus.
