Abstract:
1. An imaging member, comprising: a substrate; a charge generation layer disposed on the substrate; a charge transport layer disposed on the charge generation layer; and an overcoat layer disposed on the charge transport layer, wherein the overcoat layer comprises a light-absorbing material that comprises diphenoquinone and absorbs light having a wavelength of from 400 to 460 nanometers, and further wherein the imaging member exhibits a decrease in light shock as compared to an imaging member without the light-absorbing material in the overcoat layer and the overcoat layer is formed from an overcoat solution comprising the light-absorbing material, N,N′-diphenyl-N,N′-bis(3-hydroxyphenyl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4,4′-diamine (DHTBD), a hydroxylated silicone modified polyacrylate, methylated butylated melamine-formaldehyde, an acid catalyst, and one or more surface additives in a solvent.
