摘要:
A photoreceptor for electrophotography, comprising: a photoconductive layer substantially composed of amorphous silicon, and first, second and third surface layers substantially composed of amorphous silicon added with nitrogen atom, those layers being formed on a support. The thickness d.sub.1, d.sub.2 and d.sub.3 of the first, second and third surface layers satisfies the following relation: d.sub.2 >d.sub.1 and d.sub.2 >d.sub.3, and the nitrogen concentrations c.sub.1, c.sub.2 and c.sub.3 of said first, second and third surface layers satisfy the following relation: c.sub.3 >c.sub.2 >c.sub.1.
摘要:
An electrophotographic photoreceptor having a photosensitive layer essentially made of amorphous silicon formed over a support, and a surface layer made of amorphous silicon formed over the photosensitive layer. The amorphous silicon of the photosensitive layer includes boron of 0.1-5 ppm, and the amorphous silicon of the surface layer includes nitrogen. The layers of material formed over the support include a charge blocking layer.

An electrophotographic photoreceptor comprising a conductive support having thereon an amorphous silicon photoconductive layer and a surface protective layer is disclosed, the surface protective layer having a laminated structure comprised of a lower layer comprising nitrogen-containing amorphous silicon and an upper layer comprising amorphous carbon.The photoreceptor causes no image deletion even after repeated use under a high temperature and high humidity condition and exhibits excellent scratch resistance.
摘要:
An electrophotographic photoreceptor comprising a photoconductive layer, a first surface layer and a second surface layer formed in sequence on a support, said photoconductive layer being substantially composed of amorphous silicon, and each of said first and second surface layers being substantially composed of nitrogen-doped amorphous silicon, the concentration of nitrogen atoms in the second surface layer being higher than that in the first surface layer. The photoconductive layer is doped with atoms of an element of group III, or in at least a part of the photoconductive layer doped with germanium atoms in place of the element of group III.
