AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing electrophotographic photosensitive members experience a variation in light-area potential during long-term use due to reduced electroconductivity of tungsten oxide particles in the intermediate layer.

Method used

Incorporating cesium atoms into tungsten oxide particles in the intermediate layer, with a composition ratio of 0.1 to 10.0%, stabilizes the electroconductivity and suppresses variations in light-area potential.

Benefits of technology

The incorporation of cesium atoms into tungsten oxide particles maintains electroconductivity, reducing film resistance and initial sensitivity variations, thereby stabilizing the light-area potential over time.
