領域に感度を得ている。Inorganic photoconductors such as selenium alloys, zinc oxide, cadmium sulfide and tellurium have been used primarily. In recent years, the development of semiconductor lasers has been remarkable, and small and stable laser oscillators have become available at low cost and are beginning to be used as light sources for electrophotography. but,
Using semiconductor lasers that emit short-wavelength light in these devices has many problems in terms of lifespan, output, etc. Therefore, the conventionally used materials sensitive in the short wavelength region are unsuitable for use in semiconductor lasers, and the materials sensitive in the long wavelength region (
It has become necessary to research materials with high sensitivity to wavelengths of 780 nm and above. Recently, research has been actively conducted on multilayer organic photoreceptors using organic materials, especially phthalocyanine, which is expected to have sensitivity in the long wavelength region. For example, as a divalent metal phthalocyanine,
ε-type copper phthalocyanine (ε-CuPc), X-type metal-free phthalocyanine (X-H2Pc), and τ-type metal-free phthalocyanine (τ-H2Pc) have sensitivity in the long wavelength region. Trivalent and tetravalent metal phthalocyanines include chloroaluminum phthalocyanine (AfPccn) and chloroaluminum phthalocyanine chloride (Cj2AIl).

ているが、帯電性が著しく劣り、実用的ではなかった。Photoreceptors have also been reported in which a charge generation layer is made of a vapor-deposited film of metal phthalocyanine selected from metals such as aluminum, but these have extremely poor charging properties and are not practical.

電子写真感光体ではなかった。JP-A-59-44053, JP-A-60-59354, and JP-A-60-260054 describe electrophotographic photoreceptors in which a charge generation layer is formed by vapor-depositing phthalocyanine having gallium in the central core. However, the charge ordering layer can only be used by vapor deposition, and further tests by the present inventors have revealed that the chargeability and dark decay properties, which are important requirements for electrophotographic properties, are extremely poor. However, it was not a practical electrophotographic photoreceptor.
