Abstract
An electrophotographic photoreceptor including a photosensitive layer which includes a titanyl phthalocyanine crystal having a major absorption peak at a wavelength of 780 nm±10 nm and a minor absorption peak having an intensity of ¾ or less of the major absorption peak at 690 nm±10 nm in the visible-infrared absorption spectrum and a distyryl compound having a predetermined structure. An electrophotographic image forming apparatus employing the electrophotographic photoreceptor is also provided. The electrophotographic photoreceptor and the electrophotographic image forming apparatus have good photosensitivity and charging properties and good stability over repeated charging obtained by using an optimum combination of a new crystal type of a highly photosensitive titanyl phthalocyanine and a distyryl compound which is a charge transporting material that is compatible with the titanyl phthalocyanine.
