Abstract
An electrophotographic photosensitive member comprises a photosensitive layer on a conductive substrate having a smooth surface, wherein said photosensitive layer has a surface roughness, represented by an average roughness Rz of ten points over a reference length of 2.5 mm, is equal to or larger than 1/2 of the wavelength of the light source employed for image formation.
