In order to make high resolution electrophotographic images, it is useful to know how well the 1-dot latent image potential is formed on the photoconductor. This report describes a new method of measuring micro-area surface potential profiles and analyzing the latent images. The results for 1-dot latent image potentials of negatively charged double layer organic photoconductors (OPC) and positively charged single layer OPC are presented. The dependencies on film thickness, photosensitivity and charge mobility are examined.
