An electrophotographic device member R is used in an electrophotographic device. The electrophotographic device member R has a surface layer 1. The surface layer 1 has a matrix polymer 11 forming a skeleton of the surface layer 1 and a surface modifier 12 contained in the matrix polymer 11. The surface modifier 12 is composed of a copolymer containing, in its molecule, a first polymerization unit derived from a (meth)acrylate having a silicone group 121 and a second polymerization unit derived from a (meth)acrylate having a fluorine-containing group 122.
