摘要:
An electrophotographic light-sensitive material is described, comprising an electrically conductive support, an amorphous silicon photoconductive layer on the support, and a layer of amorphous material containing at least carbon and halogen atoms is provided on the photoconductive layer. This material is free from a serious reduction in resolving power as is encountered in conventional electrophotographic light-sensitive materials when they are exposed to corona discharge, particularly negative corona discharge under high temperature/humidity conditions.

A radiation image read-out apparatus comprises a stimulating ray source constituted by many point light sources for sequentially emitting stimulating rays onto a portion of a stimulable phosphor sheet carrying a radiation image stored therein, and a line sensor constituted by many solid state photoelectric conversion devices. The line sensor extends over the length of the portion of the stimulable phosphor sheet linearly exposed to stimulating rays. Light emitted by the exposed portion of the stimulable phosphor sheet is received and photoelectrically converted by the solid state photoelectric conversion devices. The stimulating ray source and the line sensor are moved with respect to the stimulable phosphor sheet in a main scanning direction normal to the array of the solid state photoelectric conversion devices, and then moved with respect thereto in the array direction each time one main scanning step is finished.

A radiation image read-out apparatus comprises a linear stimulating ray source for emitting stimulating rays to a linear portion of a stimulable phosphor sheet carrying a radiation image stored therein, and a line sensor constituted by many solid state photoelectric conversion devices. The line sensor extends at least over the length of the linear portion of the stimulable phosphor sheet exposed to stimulating rays. Light emitted by the linear portion of the stimulable phosphor sheet upon stimulation thereof is received and photoelectrically converted by the solid state photoelectric conversion devices. The portion exposed linearly to stimulating rays and the line sensor are moved with respect to the stimulable phosphor sheet, and outputs of the line sensor are sequentially read out in accordance with the movement of the portion exposed linearly to stimulating rays and the line sensor with respect to the stimulable phosphor sheet.

A radiation image read-out system comprises a point-source light for projecting a spot of stimulating rays onto a stimulable phosphor sheet carrying a radiation image stored therein, and a solid state photoelectric converter which is opposed to the spot-like portion of the stimulable phosphor sheet exposed to the spot of stimulating rays and is adapted to receive light from the spot-like portion. The point-source light and the solid state photoelectric converter are moved with respect to the stimulable phosphor sheet to two-dimensionally scan the stimulable phosphor sheet, thereby reading out the radiation image stored therein.

An image exposing apparatus two-dimensionally scans a printing plate precursor with a light beam modulated based on an image signal to carry out image exposure on the printing plate precursor. The image exposing apparatus includes exposing device for emitting a light beam in a pulsed form with a predetermined pulse repetition period onto the printing plate precursor; branching device for branching at least a part of the light beam emitted from the exposing device; a pulse stretcher for stretching a pulse width of a branch beam branched by the branching device; synchronous signal generator for generating a synchronous signal synchronized with the pulse repetition period of the light beam from the branch beam having the pulse width stretched by the pulse stretcher; and modulating device for modulating the light beam emitted from the exposing device with an image exposure period synchronized with the synchronous signal.

A light modulating device comprising a plurality of light modulating elements modulating the light that is incident thereto and emitting the light, wherein each of the light modulating elements is formed from a micro electronic machinery which is two-dimensionally arranged, and the transmittance can be controlled so as to vary for each of the light modulating elements. The light modulating device further comprises a lens array on a light-incident side of the light modulating elements, and the lens array condenses the incident light, which impinges on each of the light modulating elements, into a region whose area is smaller than an area occupied by each of the light modulating elements at a light-incident side thereof. Consequently, the light modulating device, in which usability of the light is improved and resolution is increased in the projection exposure, and the exposure apparatus using the same can be obtained.

An image-wise exposure apparatus includes a mirror array device comprising a plurality of small mirrors which are two-dimensionally arrayed in two directions normal to each other and a drive mechanism for changing the orientations of the respective small mirrors independently from each other so that light impinging upon each of the small mirrors is reflected selectively in one of a first direction in which the reflected light impinges upon the photosensitive material and a second direction in which the reflected light does not impinge upon the photosensitive material. A control circuit controls the drive mechanism according to an image signal. In the image-wise exposure apparatus, picture element shifting is carried out. There is provided an antireflective mask which limits the effective aperture of each small mirror to a continuous region not longer than 1.5 a/m as measured in a direction in which the picture element shifting operation is carried out, wherein a represents the mirror pitches in the direction of the picture element shifting and m represents the times by which the number of exposure dots are multiplied by the picture element shifting in the direction.
