Inorganic photoconductors with phenyl substituted image transport materials

A photosensitive member having at least two operative materials. The first material comprises a photoconductive material which is capable of photogenerating and injecting photoexcited holes into a contiguous electronically active material. The electronically active material is catalytically synthesized from vinyl derivatives of suitable polycyclic compounds exemplified by phenyl substituted aromatic or heterocyclic groups such as a phenylnaphthalene, a phenylanthracene, a phenylindole, a phenylpyrene and corresponding polymers thereof, the active material being substantially non-absorbing in the wavelength of xerographic use and capable of transporting photogenerated holes. The photoconductive and electronically active materials may be combined in binder or layered xerographic plate configurations.
