Abstract
A device is disclosed which is useful in an electrophotographic copier for stabilizing and increasing contrast potential. The device is employed for extinguishing a recorded, electrostatic charge image. The device has one or more light sources which provide a spectral distribution comprising a first spectral range of maximum photoconductivity production and a radiation energy which is three to ten times a radiation energy present in a second spectral range. The second spectral range is located at a wavelength determined by a maximum of a product of photoconductivity production and penetration depth. An additional radiation energy distribution in remaining portions of the spectral distribution has a radiation energy not exceeding five to ten percent of the radiation energy of the first range.
