2. Description of the Related Art Since the electrophotographic process uses the visualization of a latent image by electrostatic force as a principle, the electrophotographic photosensitive member used in the process has a good charging property and a rapid surface potential due to light irradiation. Attenuation is needed. The properties required for these processes are reduced to high dark resistance, which is a physical property value, good quantum efficiency, and high charge mobility. As those satisfying these physical property values, an electrophotographic photoreceptor composed of an inorganic compound such as selenium, a selenium-tellurium alloy, or arsenic selenium has been conventionally known.

Among these charge generating substances, the photoreceptor using a perylene pigment has low sensitivity for a high-speed copying machine and has a pigment absorption of 600 n.
Since it is limited to the wavelength side shorter than m, it has no sensitivity to red light and is unsuitable as a photoconductor for a color copying machine. on the other hand,
Phthalocyanine pigments have various crystal types with different electrophotographic sensitivities.
The sensitivity to light in the vicinity of nm is low, and the characteristics such as chargeability are likely to change due to environmental changes such as temperature and humidity, and usage cycles such as charging and exposure. Further, those using an azo pigment have drawbacks that it is difficult to prepare a coating liquid having stable dispersibility during the production of the charge generation layer, and in addition, the light stability of the pigment is poor and it is difficult to highly purify the pigment.

As described above, when a single pigment is used as a charge generating substance, there is a problem that sufficient sensitivity and a wide spectral sensitivity range from the visible region to the infrared region cannot be obtained. As a method for obtaining a wide spectral sensitivity range from the visible range to the infrared range, it has been conventionally proposed to use two or more kinds of charge generating substances in combination and is still being developed. For example, Yokoyama
It has been reported that the quantum efficiency is improved by co-evaporating an electron-accepting (n-type) pigment and an electron-donating (p-type) pigment (Appl. Phys. Lett., 58, 1062).
(1991)). However, since the bulk layer has a low resistance, it cannot be directly applied to an electrophotographic photoreceptor. Further, an electrophotographic photoreceptor containing perylene tetracarboxylic acid diimide and X-type metal-free phthalocyanine as a charge generating substance (JP-A-2-228671), and an electrophotographic photoreceptor containing an anthanthrone compound and oxotitanyl phthalocyanine. (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-222962) has been proposed, but sufficient sensitivity has not been obtained yet.

A V corona discharge is performed to charge the surface of the photoconductor, and then the surface potential is attenuated to −400 V in a dark place. Here, monochromatic light is irradiated to attenuate the surface potential of the photoconductor. At this time, the light energy required to attenuate the surface potential of the photoconductor from -400 V to +200 V and the half-exposure energy E1 / 2 (cm2 / μJ) were measured. The results are shown in Table 6. Further, the spectral sensitivity in the range of 460 to 840 nm is shown in FIG.
