In the present invention, an objective is to provide an organic photoreceptor exhibiting extremely high moire resistance, but also to provide an organic photoreceptor capable of acquiring a high quality image to realize no generation of image defects such as black spots or the like. Also disclosed is an organic photoreceptor possessing a conductive support and layered thereon, an intermediate layer, a charge generation layer and a charge transport layer in this order, wherein the intermediate layer possesses porous silica in which metal oxide is encapsulated.

Organic photoreceptor, image forming apparatus, and process cartridge

An image display medium is disclosed, which medium includes a pair of substrates each having an electrode and colored particles between the pair of substrates, and the colored particles have an absolute electric charge of 0.5 to 4.0 &#x3bc;C/g.

Image display medium, preparation method thereof

Provide is an electrophotographic photoreceptor exhibiting excellent evenness of halftone images together with fine line reproduction, and an image forming method thereof, as to a photoreceptor in which an oxytitanium phthalocyanine pigment having a maximum diffraction peak at a Bragg angle (2&#x3b8;&#xb1;0.2&#xb0;) of 27.2&#xb0; in CuK&#x3b1; X-ray diffraction. Also disclosed is an electrophotographic photoreceptor possessing a body having cylindrical conductive support provided thereon photosensitive layer containing oxytitanium phthalocyanine pigment having maximum diffraction peak at a Bragg angle (2&#x3b8;&#xb1;0.2&#xb0;) of 27.2&#xb0; in CuK&#x3b1; X-ray diffraction, and flanges jointed at both ends of the body, wherein at least one of flanges is fitted with driving shaft having drive hole having at least 3 sides, and a ratio B/A of cross-sectional area B of engaging part of rotation shaft to rotate the electrophotographic photoreceptor with respect to cross-sectional area A of the drive hole is 0.890-0.998.
