Photoconducting films of polyvinylcarbazole (PVK) and zinc phthalocyan
ine (ZnPc) doped with fullerenes (a mixture of C-60 and C-70) were pre
pared and their photoconductive properties were measured, Surface pote
ntial measurements showed that the photosenstivity sensitivity of full
erene-doped photoreceptors is remarkably enhanced, compared to that of
the undoped materials. The photoconduction mechanism and the role of
fullerene in the charge generation process are roughly discussed.
