Abstract

An electrophotographic photosensitive member comprises a conductive support and a photosensitive layer which comprises a charge generation layer and a charge transport layer, characterized in that the charge generation layer contains a polycarbonate resin, and the electrophotographic photosensitive member is electrostatically charged by applying a direct current voltage to a charging member in contact with the surface of said electrophotographic photosensitive member.
