囲な光吸収波長領域に対応することができなかった。However, in conventional laminated electrophotographic photoreceptors, the material used for the charge generation layer is a limiting factor, and it has not been possible to accommodate a wide range of light absorption wavelength regions.

し、既に特許出願した。Problems to be Solved by the Invention The present inventors have discovered that polycyclic quinone pigments or perylene pigments, as pigments to be used in the charge generation layer, have very good properties when combined with a specific charge transport layer. I discovered something and have already applied for a patent.

安定性の低下、残留電位の増加、又は顔料の分散安定性
の低下等の障害を生じるという問題が生じた。Therefore, in order to increase the sensitivity of the photoreceptor in the long wavelength region, we applied the technology described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-32788 and used these red pigments in combination with phthalocyanine, which resulted in the desired effect. In order to achieve this goal, a large amount of phthalocyanine had to be included. As a result, the good photosensitivity properties of polycyclic quinone pigments or perylene pigments are no longer reflected in the photoreceptor, resulting in problems such as decreased cyclic stability, increased residual potential, or decreased pigment dispersion stability. A problem arose.

You can't get it. In addition, if a large amount of the pigment with good blue reproducibility is mixed in order to achieve the desired sensitivity, the good photosensitivity properties of dibromoanthrone will no longer be reflected, resulting in decreased sensitivity in the short wavelength range and repeated Problems such as a decrease in stability, an increase in residual potential, and a decrease in the dispersion stability of the pigment were caused.
