Abstract

In an electrophotographic photosensitive device, which comprises an electroconductive support, a photoconductive layer provided thereon, and a surface protective layer provided on the photoconductive layer, the surface protective layer being made from a film having a density of localized states of not more than 5.times.10.sup.17 cm.sup.-3 and a higher dark resistance than that of the photoconductive layer, the surface protective layer is less susceptible to deterioration, adhesion to the photoconductive layer is enhanced, and thus the device has a prolonged life.
