Abstract
The physical phenomena controlling the operation of xerographic photoreceptors are reviewed with special emphasis on the changes required by the realization of the importance of field controlled photo-generation. Several transport-limited models for photoreceptor sensitivity are analyzed. A comparison is made of photoreceptors in which only one carrier moves with photoreceptors in which both carriers move easily. The factors affecting residual potential buildup, dark decay, and charging are also considered. The effects of traps are included in each of the sections.
