Abstract: Photoconducting films of polyvinylcarbazole(PVK) and zinc phthalocyanine(ZnPc) doped with fullerenes(a mixture of C60and C70) were prepared and their photoconductive properties were measured.Surface potential measurements showed that the photosensitivity of fullerene-doped photoreceptors is remarkably enhnced,compared to that of the undoped materials.The photoconduction mechanism and the role of fullerene in the charge generation process are roughly discussed.
