Abstract
The present invention relates to photoconductors composed of low molecular weight or polymeric organic compounds with liquid crystal properties, where the photoconduction in the discotic phase is higher than in the non-liquid-crystal phases, and to a method for increasing the photoconductivity by molecular ordering in photoconductors.
Claims5
