Dye Formation on Zinc Oxide-Resin Layer by Photo-electrolytic Process

Abstract

The authors have presented a new imaging system involving the photo-electrolytic image dye formation on the zinc oxide photoconductive layer. To prepare the imaging sensor, 4 (p-dimethylaminostyryl) quinoline was coated on or dispersed in the zinc oxide-resin layer which was supported on the Aluminium sheet.
We have demonstrated the dependence upon several factors for dye formation. The mechanism of the photo-electrolytic reaction have been discussed from the experimental results.
