A photoelectrographic element comprising a conductive layer in electrical contact with an acid photogenerating layer which (a) is free of photopolymerizable materials and (b) comprises an electrically insulating binder and an acid photogenerator.
A photoelectrographic method for imaging, comprising the steps of:
- (a) providing a photoelectrographic element comprising a conductive layer in electrical contact with an acid photogenerating layer which (a) is free of photopolymerizable materials and (b) comprises an electrically insulating binder and an acid photogenerator;
- (b) carrying out the following steps (i) and (ii) separately or concurrently in any order to form an electrostatic latent image,
- (i) imagewise exposing the acid photogenerating layer to actinic radiation,
- (ii) electrostatically charging the acid photogenerating layer, and
- (c) developing the electrostatic latent image with charged toner particles.
