Definitions
- a photoconductive material comprises a photoconductor, a sensitizer and a light filtering substance such as a dye or pigment which itself displays substantially no sensitizing action, but is capable of absorbing light of an undesired wave length, whereby the wave length region to which the photoconductor is sensitive is controlled by filter effect of the light filtering substance so that the photoconductor is rendered sensitive only to light of a specific wave length region.
- a light filtering substance such as a dye or pigment which itself displays substantially no sensitizing action, but is capable of absorbing light of an undesired wave length, whereby the wave length region to which the photoconductor is sensitive is controlled by filter effect of the light filtering substance so that the photoconductor is rendered sensitive only to light of a specific wave length region.
- Electrophotography is usually accomplished by charging a photoconductor layer formed on an electroconductive support in a high electric field and then exposing the layer to a pattern of light through an original. Those portions of the photoconductor layer which are exposed to the light becomes electroconductive, whereby the charge is earthed and leaks away. Images are usually obtained by developing the latent image by allowing toners to stick to those portions of the photoconductor layer in which the charge remains.
- a color image can be obtained by forming said photoconductor layer with three kinds of mosaics which are respectively sensitive to spectra of three regions of red, green and blue light.
- mosaics which are sensitive to spectra of different regions can be produced by coating different dyes to insensitized photoconductor layer by silk screen in such a manner that the different dyes do not overlap each other.
- mosaics which are respectively sensitive to spectra of different regions can be produced by charging insensitized photoconductor layer, exposing the layer through a mosaic screen pattern and developing the latent image with a developer comprising a sensitizing dye.
- the photoconductor layer itself has selective sensitivity to spectra in the wave length region to which the photoconductor has sensitivity increased by sensitizing dye is controlled in order to reproduce color close to that of original. Therefore, even such dyes as having excellent sensitizing efficiency cannot be used when the wave length region to which the photoconductor has sensitivity is wider or narrower than desired or is biased or shifted.
- the dye-transfer type photoconductor layer (according to said type, after an image is formed, the dye is transferred to another recording material) containing a large amount of a dye, the spectrum absorbed by the dye is apt to become wider and simultaneously the wave length region to which the photoconductor is sensitive also becomes wider.
- maximum wave length to which the photoconductor is sensitive also shifts, the wave length region slips from the purpose and as the result, it is impossible to reproduce color close to that of an original.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a photoconductive material for color electrophotography for obtaining a color image having color close to that of original.
- Further object of the present invention is to provide a photoconductive material for electrophotography having selective photosensitivity to spectra of specific regions without causing reduction of sensitizing action of sensitizer.
- the object of the present invention is to provide photoconductive material for electrophotography which have selective photosensitivity to spectra of three basic lights, namely, red, green and blue, respectively.
- Still further object of the present invention is to provide three kinds of photoconductive materials for color electrophotography which comprise a photoconductive material sensitive only to the spectra of red, a photoconductive material sensitive only to the spectrum of green and a photoconductive material sensitive only to the specturm of blue lights.
- FIG. 1 is the cross-sectional view of a recording medium for electrophotography of the present invention.
- FIGS. 2, 4 and 6 are spectrograms of the conventional photoconductors for green, red and blue lights.
- FIGS. 3, 5 and 7 are spectrograms of the photoconductor of the present invention and correspond to FIGS. 2, 4 and 6, respectively.
- FIG. 8 shows a rough sketch of an optical system of color reproduction.
- FIGS. 9, l0 and 11 are spectrograms of photoconductor obtained in Example l0 hereinafter mentioned.
- FIG. 12 is a rough sketch of the photoconductor in mosaic pattern in which 1 l is an insulating support, 12 is a photoconductive layer and 13 is mosaics and C means cyan, M means magenta and Y means yellow.
- the present invention provides a photoconductive material for color electrophography which has selective sensitivity to spectra of three basic lights of red, green and blue, respectively by controlling wave length region to which the photoconductor layer on electroconductive layer is sensitive. That is, according to the present invention, a sensitizer and a light filtering substance selected from the group of dyes and pigments are added to the photoconductor layer so that there is provided a photoconductive material for color electrophotography utilizing the filter effect obtained by light filtering effect of the specific dye or pigment.
- the wave length region to which the photoconductive material of the present invention is sensitive is controlled depending upon the kind of the light filtering substance and thus the photoconductive material has sensitivities to spectra of specific regions. This is because the photosensitivity of the photoconductor significantly decreases at about the maximum light absorption wave length of the dye or pigment added as the light filtering substance and no effect is given at the wave lengths which are not absorbed in a large amount by the dye or pigment. That is, the dyes and pigments display the same effect as filter does.
- the filter effect of the dyes and pigments is considered to be exhibited due to the following reason.
- the sensitizer contained in the photoconductor layer absorbs the light of the specific wave length to transmit the energy to the photoconductor, which is then excited thereby to exhibit conductivity.
- the dye or pigment having substantially no sensitizing action but having only absorption of the light is added to the photoconductor, such the dye or pigment does not transmit the energy to the photoconductor.
- sensitivity of the photoconductive material with respect to the light absorbed by the dye or pigment will markedly decrease.
- the present invention skilfully utilizes such filter effect of the dye and pigment to control region of wave length to which the photoconductive material is sensitive and to make the photoconductive material sensitiveto the spectra of specific wave length regions.
- the amount of light absorbed by the light filtering substance is preferably 10 times the amount of light absorbed by the sensitizer. Therefore, the larger the amount of the light filtering substance is, the higher the effect is. However, when the amount is too large, the wave length region to which the photoconductive material is sensitive is unnecessarily limited and, in addition thereto the photoconductor itself becomes brittle. Therefore, too much addition of the dye and pigment is not desired.
- the photoconductive material for electrophotography according to the present invention may be applied as a photoconductive layer 3 on support 1 through conductive layer 2 to form a recording medium as shown in FIG. 1.
- support 1 may also serve as electroconductive layer 2 by imparting electroconductivity to the support.
- photoconductor known inorganic photoconductive materials such as selenium, zinc oxide, titanium oxide, cadmium sulfide, etc. can be used.
- organic photoconductors such as aromatic or heterocyclic vinyl polymers including poly-N vinyl carbazole, polyvinylanthracene, poly-9-(p-vinylphenyl) anthracene, poly-9-anthroic acid vinyl ester can also be used.

- One or more of these sensitizers depending on the spectra are added to the photoconductor in an amount of 0003- parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of the photoconductor to attain sensitization.
- the light filtering substance selected from the group of dyes and pigments which are added for controlling the wave length region to which the photoconductor has sensitivity must show effective light absorbing action in such an amount as giving no adverse effects on the photoconductor layer. It should be noted, however, that some dyes have high sensitizing action and these cannot be used as the light filtering substance in the present invention.

- a recording medium shown in FIG. 1 was prepared and was negatively charged at 6 kV. Then, this was exposed through a color original containing network by a photographic enlarger at F 5.6 from a light source of I50 W tungsten lamp from a height of 30 cm for 3 seconds. Thereafter, the exposed recording medium was developed with a reversal toner (N-P toner produced by Konishiroku K.K.) and fixed by heating it at 80C for about 3 seconds to obtain a negative toner image.

Thus exposed papers were simultaneously subjected to reversal development and fixation and thereafter the images were transferred to one transfer paper. In this case, solvent was applied to the recording paper. The obtained color images were clear and color reproduction was excellent. Since only the dye was transferred to the transferring paper and pigment was not contained, these recording papers were especially advantageous for color reproduction of mixed color portion.
