Organic Photoreceptors for Imaging Systems

By Borsenberger Copyright 1993

    This reference covers in detail the preparation and application of current and emerging organic materials used as xerographic photoreceptors, emphasizing the photo-electric properties of organic solids and evaluating their potential use in xerography.;Reviewing the development of xerography and the steps in the xerographic process, this volume: summarizes the properties, advantages and disadvantages of various classes of materials used as photoreceptors; describes the methods of characterizing the sensitometry of xerographic photoreceptors; examines the physics and chemistry of photogeneration and charge transport processes; and elucidates the sensimetry of different classes of organic materials.;Organic Photoreceptors for Imaging Systems is intended for imaging scientists, optical engineers and physicists, organic chemists, materials scienctists and students in these disciplines.

    Xerographic photoreceptors; charge acceptance and dark discharge; photoinduced discharge; photogeneration theories; photogeneration in organic solids; charge transport theories; charge transport in polymers and related materials; experimental techniques; photoreceptor preparation; photoreceptors; fatigue; summary and future requirements.
