Abstract

Abstract A method of selectively producing positive or negative photoelectrophoretic copies is described. A suspension of photosensitive particles sensitive to a first range of wavelengths is placed between two electrodes, one of which is transparent and the other of which has a surface sensitive to a second range of wavelengths. When a field is imposed across the suspension and an image is projected through the transparent electrode using radiation in only one of said first and second ranges, a positive or negative image is formed on a given electrode, depending on whether the electrode or the suspension is sensitive to the radiation used.
