Patent number: 7563549Abstract: Provided is an imaging member comprising a substrate, an undercoat layer (UCL), a charge generation layer, a charge transport layer, and an optional overcoat layer. The undercoat layer is formed from a single-phase UCL coating formulation comprising an organic titanate, a polymer containing active hydrogen, and an aminosilane. The UCL formulation has improved properties such as stability, processing convenience, and longer pot life etc. The UCL formulation can be used to manufacture an imaging member such as photoreceptor with improved properties such as stable, thick UCL coating, resistance to electrical failure, and PIDC independency on UCL thickness etc.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2005Date of Patent: July 21, 2009Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Jin Wu, Yuhua Tong, Jennifer Y. Hwang, Liang-bih Lin, Andronique Ioannidis, Nancy L. Belknap, Timothy J. O'Brien, Anthony Uttaro, Jr.

Patent number: 7070893Abstract: An electrographic or electrostatographic imaging member comprises a supporting substrate, an undercoating layer, a charge generating layer, and a charge transport layer. Thick undercoating layers were prepared with a charge erase enabler by doping an undercoating layer with a charge generating pigment that is strongly absorbing at typical erase lamp light. Doped thick undercoating layers demonstrate good electrical properties with an erase energy reduction of at least 50 V. A process for fabricating an imaging member and an apparatus comprising such an member are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2004Date of Patent: July 4, 2006Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: John S.
