PURPOSE:To enhance photosensitivity by forming an amorphous silicon carbide photoconductive layer having a specified atomic composition containing a specified amount of specified element. CONSTITUTION:The amorphous silicon carbide photoconductive layer 2 forming a photosensitive layer on a conductive substrate together with an organic photosemiconductor layer has an atomic composition satisfying the atomic formula: (Si1-xCx)1-yAy (A is H or halogen), and 0<x<0.5, and 0.2<y<0.5, and contains an element of group IIIa of the periodic table in an amount of 1-1,000ppm, thus permitting the obtained electrophotographic sensitive body to be enhanced in photosensitivity. |
