Abstract
Nanoscale azo pigment immobilized on the outer shell of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT–AZO) were prepared by modified liquid phase reprecipitation method, and the MWCNT–AZO hybrid was characterized by means of TEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and UV–VIS absorption. The photoconductivity of single-layered photoreceptors, where MWCNT–AZO served as the charge generation material (CGM), was studied by the xerographic photoinduced discharge method. The results indicated that the MWCNT–AZO nano hybrid showed broader and enhanced photosensitivity than MWCNT/bulk azo pigments (AZO) blend or the bulk AZO did, which was interpreted in terms of nanometer size effect of MWCNT–AZO hybrid and charge transfer from AZO nanoparticles to MWCNT.
