Abstract

A method of manufacturing an electrophotographic photoreceptor having an amorphous silicon layer formed as a photoconductive layer, on an electrically conductive support member. The manufacturing method includes the steps of preparing the amorphous silicon layer as the photoconductive layer by employing Si.sub.2 H.sub.6 (disilane) as a main raw material gas through a glow discharge process, and simultaneously, adding nitrogen and boron to the main raw material gas, with the unsaturated bond being stabilized by hydrogen or hydrogen and fluorine.
