Abstract
Printing members include very thin metal imaging bilayers that combine to trap and utilize imaging radiation and, due to their minimal thicknesses, ablate easily. The bilayer may include a first (bottommost) metal layer having a high extinction coefficient in the imaging wavelength range (e.g., 600-1200 nm) and, thereover, a second metal layer having a high transmittance and low emissivity for imaging radiation.
