Aspects of the invention include color change compositions having a color former and color developer composition that transitions from a first color state to a second color state upon application of an applied stimulus and an amount of a copolymer sufficient to eliminate background color of the color former and color developer composition during transition from the first color state to the second color state. Methods for preparing and devices employing the color change compositions of the invention are also described.

The present invention relates to a method of forming an image on a substrate comprising a transparent or translucent composition applied thereto, wherein the transparent or translucent composition comprises a protein in a non-denatured state, and the method comprises applying radiation to the transparent or translucent composition to denature the protein and thereby form an image on the substrate. The invention also relates to a method of preparing a substrate on which an image can be formed, and related substrates, compositions and uses thereof.

A drawing system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a light source section and a scanning section. The light source section generates a plurality of laser light beams having wavelengths that are different from each other and each correspond to an absorption wavelength of a photothermal conversion agent included in a recording medium. The scanning section scans a surface of the recording medium with the plurality of laser light beams in a state in which irradiation spots of the plurality of laser light beams are arranged side by side at predetermined intervals in a direction orthogonal to or obliquely intersecting with a scanning direction of the plurality of laser light beams.
