Cyanine and diane dye mixture provides near I. R. sensitive, charge transport layer, electrophotographic photoconductive element

摘要

Dual layer organic photoconductive elements which are stable, have good negative charge acceptance and are sensitive over a broad range of the spectrum, including near the infrared band, and the process for preparing same. The charge-generating layer comprises a mixture of a charge-generating diane dye, such as Chlorodiane Blue, and a cyanine dye as a near-infrared sensitizer.
