Abstract

The present invention is an image holding member for holding particulate dry process developer by electrical adsorption force, having from the side holding the dry process developer, a dielectric layer, a diffusion reflection layer having reflective fine particles dispersed in a resin and an electroconductive layer. The electrical resistance of the diffusion reflection layer is made smaller than that of the dielectric layer, and/or the ten-point average roughness of the dielectric layer is made 0.1 .mu.m to 5.0 .mu.m. Also, it is an image forming device by use of the above image holding member, having from the side holding the dry process developer, the above image holding member, driving means for the image holding member, recording electrodes arranged in the direction crossing the moving direction of the image holding member and electrically insulated from each other, means for feeding an electroconductive developer between the image holding member and the recording electrodes, and means for applying electrical signals to the recording electrodes.
