Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 106 words
A process for forming a photoconductive organic film on a substrate by the plasma polymerization reaction, comprising the steps of: activating a carrier gas in a microwave plasma producing region; introducing an organic compound vapor and a halogen compound vapor directly individually into a polymerization reaction region; and introducing said activated carrier gas into said polymerization reaction region, thereby carrying out the plasma polymerization reaction in a region separated from said microwave plasma introducing region in the presence of said halogen compound vapor to form on the substrate a photoconductive organic film having a photoconductivity in the near infrared region of from 0.8 to 3.0 μm.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 106 words
A process for forming a photoconductive organic film on a substrate by the plasma polymerization reaction, comprising the steps of: activating a carrier gas in a microwave plasma producing region; introducing an organic compound vapor and a halogen compound vapor directly individually into a polymerization reaction region; and introducing said activated carrier gas into said polymerization reaction region, thereby carrying out the plasma polymerization reaction in a region separated from said microwave plasma introducing region in the presence of said halogen compound vapor to form on the substrate a photoconductive organic film having a photoconductivity in the near infrared region of from 0.8 to 3.0 μm.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
An article of manufacture, comprising a substrate and a photoconductive organic film on the substrate, wherein said film is applied according to the process of claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
A process as claimed in claim 1, in which the organic compound is selected from the group consisting of acetylene, ethylene, vinylidene fluoride, styrene, propylene, vinyl ether, vinyl alcohol, vinyl chloride, vinylidene chloride, vinyl acetylene and butene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 18 words
A process as claimed in claim 3, in which the organic compound is acetylene, ethylene or vinylidene fluoride.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 62 words
