Image recording medium and method of producing the same
View Patent ↗An image recording medium includes a first electrode layer permeable to a recording electromagnetic wave carrying thereon image information, a recording photoconductive layer which generates electric charges according to the image information upon exposure to the recording electromagnetic wave and stores the electric charges and a second electrode layer for reading the electric charges stored in the recording photoconductive layer, which are superposed one on another in this order. An anti-discharge member for preventing occurrence of an electric discharge on the periphery of the first electrode layer is provided only on the periphery of the first electrode layer.
1. An image recording medium comprising a first electrode layer permeable to a recording electromagnetic wave carrying thereon image information, a recording photoconductive layer which generates electric charges according to the image information upon exposure to the recording electromagnetic wave and stores the electric charges and a second electrode layer for reading the electric charges stored in the recording photoconductive layer, which are superposed one on another in this order, wherein the improvement comprises that
an anti-discharge member for preventing occurrence of an electric discharge on the periphery of the first electrode layer is provided only on the periphery of the first electrode layer.
2. An image recording medium as defined in claim 1 in which the periphery of the first electrode layer is the side surface of the first electrode layer plus the area of the outer surface of the first electrode layer within 1 to 20 mm from the side surface toward the center of the first electrode layer.
3. An image recording medium as defined in claim 2 in which the anti-discharge member is formed by curing an adhesive.
4. An image recording medium as defined in claim 2 in which the anti-discharge member is formed by an anti-discharge tape comprising an adhesive layer and a dielectric film.
5. An image recording medium as defined in claim 1 in which the anti-discharge member is formed by curing an adhesive.
6. An image recording medium as defined in claim 1 in which the anti-discharge member is formed by an anti-discharge tape comprising an adhesive layer and a dielectric film.
7. A method of producing an image recording medium comprising a first electrode layer permeable to a recording electromagnetic wave carrying thereon image information, a recording photoconductive layer which generates electric charges according to the image information upon exposure to the recording electromagnetic wave and stores the electric charges and a second electrode layer for reading the electric charges stored in the recording photoconductive layer, which are superposed one on another in this order, wherein the improvement comprises the step of
forming an anti-discharge member for preventing occurrence of an electric discharge on the periphery of the first electrode layer only on the periphery of the first electrode layer.
