ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR, METHOD OF PRODUCING ELECTROPHOTOGRAPHIC PHOTORECEPTOR, IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS, AND PROCESS CARTRIDGE

摘要

An electrophotographic photoreceptor includes a conductive substrate; and a photosensitive layer on the conductive substrate, wherein a layer having an outermost surface of the photoreceptor contains a polymer that is formed by polymerizing a crosslinkable charge transport material having an aromatic group and a —CH2OH group, and the layer having the outermost surface satisfies the following Formula (1): (Peak 2)/(Peak 1)≦̸0.05  (1) wherein Peak 1 represents a peak area of an absorption peak (from about 1550 cm−1 to about 1650 cm−1) of stretching vibration of an aromatic group, which is obtained when an infrared absorption spectrum of the layer having the outermost surface is measured, and Peak 2 represents a peak area of an absorption peak (from about 1670 cm−1 to about 1710 cm−1) of an aromatic aldehyde, which is obtained when the infrared absorption spectrum of the layer having the outermost surface is measured.
