Physics of electrophotography

Pai, Damodar M., Springett, B. E.·1993·Reviews of Modern Physics

Abstract

Electrophotography is one means of arranging 100 million pigmented plastic particles on a sheet of paper to faithfully replicate an original. It is based on many diverse phenomena and employs many properties of matter. These include gaseous ionization in the charging step; photogeneration and charge transport through disordered solid-state materials in the latent-image-formation step; triboelectricity in the particle-charging step; mechanical, electrostatic, and magnetic forces to detach particles in the development and transfer steps; and the application and transfer of heat in the fixing step. In addition, it relies on a precise balance of thermorheological, chemical, and mechanical properties of large area films and small particles. This article reviews the physics of the latent-image formation and development steps.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
