The practice of this invention provides a photosensitive member which comprises a charge transporting layer and a charge generating layer, said charge transporting layer comprising amorphous carbon containing hydrogen, said amorphous carbon comprising hydrogen bonded carbon N1, and carbon N2 free from linking with hydrogen, the ratio of the amount of N1 to that of N2 being 1:0.1 to 1:1, and said hydrogen being contained in an amount of 20 to 67 atomic %; or said amorphous carbon comprising unsaturated carbon N3 linked with hydrogen and saturated carbon N4 linked with hydrogen, the ratio of the amount of N3 to that of N4 being 1:1 to 1:16, said hydrogen being contained in an amount of 20 to 67 atomic %; or said amorphous carbon comprising unsaturated compound N5 free from linking with hydrogen and saturated carbon N6 free from linking with hydrogen, the ratio of the amount of N5 to that of N5 being 1:20 to 1:0.5, said hydrogen being contained in an amount of 20 to 67 atomic %. The photosensitive member obtained thereby is excellent in charge-transporting property and chargeability and, moreover, exhibits advantages in corona resistance and resistances to acids, moisture and heat and also in physical properties such as stiffness.
