Abstract
A photoreceptor of electrophotography having a flexibility and a sensitivity to electromagnetic wavelengths of a wide range extending as far as the red color region of the spectrum of light rays is produced by forming a layer of a halogen-doped Se-S alloy on a substrate and further forming on said layer a halogen-doped Se-Te alloy layer. The Se-S alloy contains sulfur in a weight ratio of 0.1 to 0.35 to the Se-S alloy. The Se-Te alloy contains tellurium in a weight ratio of 0.05 to 0.35 to the Se-Te alloy.
Claims6
A photoreceptor for electrophotography comprising:
- (1) a first layer of a Se-Te-Halogen alloy containing halogen in a weight ratio of 10.sup.-3 to 10.sup.-8 to the Se-Te-Halogen alloy and a Te content of about 5 to about 35% by weight of the Se-Te alloy, the thickness of said first layer being about 0.1 to 10 microns, said first layer formed on top of,
- (2) a second layer of an Se-S-Halogen alloy containing halogen in a weight ratio of 10.sup.-2 to 10.sup.-7 to the Se-S-Halogen alloy and having a sulfur content of about 10 to about 35% by weight based on the Se-S alloy, the thickness of said second layer being about 10 to about 100 microns, said second layer formed on top of an electrically conductive substrate.
