Inducing frost deformation imaging by electrolytic deposition
Abstract
Abstract THIS INVENTION RELATES TO RECORDING INFORMATION AND, IN PARTICULAR, TO DEFORMATION IMAGING THE IMAGING METHOD COMPRISES CONTACTING A PHOTOCONDUCTIVE HEAT-DEFORMABLE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER WITH AN ELECTROLYTE CONTAINING AN ELECTROLYTICALLY REDUCIBLE MATERIAL, EXPOSING THE PHOTOCONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER TO SENSITIZING RADIATION WHEREBY MINUTE QUANTITIES OF THE REDUCIBLE MATERIAL ARE DEPSOITED IN IMAGEWISE CONFIGURATION ON PORTIONS OF THE PHOTOCONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER ADJACENT THE ELECTROLYTE, UNIFORMLY CHARGING THE EXPOSED SURFACE OF THE PHOTOCONDUCTIVE THERMOPLASTIC LAYER AND SOFTENING THE LAYER UNTIL IT DEFORMS IN IMAGEWISE CONFIGURATION ACCORDING TO THE DEPOSITED PATTERN.
