Effects of Charge
Photoconductor
Schematic illustration of experimental setup.The larger toner
particles fix the size of the air gap
while the applied electric field cause the smaller particle to transfer
from the photoconductor (top) to the receiver (bottom).

Thus far, it would appear that the JKR contact mechanics assumption is valid.
However, if electrostatic forces become more significant, long-range
interactions would have to be taken into account. |
