Definitions

  • the invention relates to an optically diffractive security element according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such security elements are used to authenticate documents, such as Securities, checks, banknotes, credit cards, identity cards of all kinds, Entry tickets, tickets, etc., are used, with the security elements For example, as a thin layer composite is glued to the document.
  • the security element is one of one Laminate cut piece of foil with a flat, reflective Reflective layer. In area parts that have an individual identifier on the area form the film piece, the reflective layer is removed, so that one under the Reflection layer arranged black layer is visible. On the of the Copy machine produced copy disappears the black identifier in the Reproduction of the remaining mirror surface, since the surface parts in which the Reflection layer is removed, and the remaining mirror surface in the copy appear uniformly black.
  • Another security element has instead the plane mirror surfaces a hologram structure with the identifier and behaves like the ones discussed in the next paragraph Diffraction structures. In the copy, the identifier is in the copied image of the Hologram therefore recognizable.
  • the invention is based on the object, a cost optically variable security element to create that of a photocopier not can be reproduced and not with holographic methods can be copied.
  • FIG. 1 signify a document, 2 a security element, 3 a Background area, 4 a pattern element and 5 an imaginary, in the plane of Document 1 tilting axis.
  • Document 1 is in directional artificial light illuminated laterally and obliquely from above and viewed vertically from above.
  • the security element 2 is attached on the document 1, the security element 2 is attached.
  • the security element 2 has for identification a pattern 25 of the pattern elements 4, which from the background surfaces 3 are surrounded.
  • the pattern 25 consists of a single Pattern element 4 and forms a simple "V" character. In a practical Execution are more of the background surfaces 3 and the pattern elements. 4 arranged to the pattern 25.
  • the pattern 25 is not visible to an observer, because there is no contrast between the pattern element 4 and the background surface 3 is present and both surfaces, both the background surface 3 and the Pattern element 4, appear dark, for example, metallic matt.
  • the pattern element 4 lifts dark of the light. Background area 3 and is therefore good for the observer visible, noticeable.
  • FIG. 3 shows the security element 2 (FIG. 2) in cross section, wherein the Cutting plane, for example, the tilt axis 5 (Fig. 2) contains.
  • the Security element 2 consists of a layer composite 6 of a variety of Layers 7, 8, 9 and 11. Examples of the structure of the composite layer 6 and the for the composite layer 6 suitable materials are EP 0 401 466 A1 and US 4,856,857.
  • the layer composite 6 comprises at least one Protective layer 7, an adhesive layer 8, one between the protective layer 7 and the , Adhesive layer 8 arranged paint layer 9.
  • the adhesive layer 8 connects the Security element 2 with the document 1.
  • the reflectivity is therefore due to a arranged at the interface Reflective layer 11, which forms a thin layer ( ⁇ 0.4 microns) of a Metal or one with a suitable inorganic dielectric layer coated metal, wherein the dielectric layer on the incident Light 10 facing side of the metal is arranged.
  • the materials for the reflection layer 11 are shown in Tables 1 to 5 of US 4,856,857; Tables 1 to 6 are expressly in this Description included.
  • the tellurium not mentioned in Table 5 is suitable also for the reflection layer 11.
  • With the incident light 10 is daylight or Visually visible polychromatic light with wavelengths between Meant 380 nm and 780 nm.
  • the layer composite 6 that of the lacquer layer 9 opposite surface of the cover layer 7 of the composite layer 6 by means of a Separating layer 12 connected to a carrier tape 13 to the transfer of the To facilitate fragile layer composite 6 on the document 1.
  • the carrier tape 13 made of paper or a plastic film, e.g. PC or PETP, can be after the Glue the layer composite 6 remove so that the pattern 25 (Fig. 2) by the protective layer 7 and the lacquer layer 9 is visible therethrough. This is on the already mentioned in the beginning GB 2 129 739 B referenced.
  • paint coating 9 is in the region of Pattern elements 4 a relief structure 14 with a geometric profile depth p shaped.
  • the lacquer layer 9 is flat and smooth and is parallel to the other layers of the composite layer. 6
  • the material of the adhesive layer 8 fills the depressions of the relief structure 14. Die Interface with or without additional reflective layer 11 follows both the Relief structure 14 as well as mirror planes of the background surfaces 3.
  • Such Relief structures 14 absorb almost everything incident on the pattern elements 4 visible light 10 and scatter a small fraction of the incident light 10 in the half space above the pattern element 4 back.
  • the percentage of absorbed light 10 depends in a non-linear manner on the structure depth h and can by means of the choice of the structure depth h in the above range between 50% and about 99% are controlled, where, the flatter the relief structure 14 the more incident light 10 is backscattered and the less light 10 is absorbed.
  • the given percentages apply to the relief structure 14 with a reflection layer 11 of, for example, aluminum. Abutting Regions of the pattern elements 4 with different texture depths h therefore show a gray scale.
  • the embodiment of the relief structure 14 shown in FIG. 4 is a cross lattice formed by two sinusoidal base lattices intersecting at right angles.
  • the sine function of the first basic lattice extending along the coordinate x has a period d x and an amplitude h x
  • the sine function of the second base lattice extending along the coordinate y has a period d y and an amplitude h y .
  • h (x, y) h x • sin 2 ( ⁇ x / d x ) + h y • sin 2 ( ⁇ y / d y ), rectangular or pyramidal structures are used as the interface h (x, y).
  • the structure depth h [h x + h y ] can be chosen larger than the period d, but the relief structure 14 is difficult to produce with today's production methods.
  • the interface h (x, y) is similar to an egg carton and is shown in FIG.
  • the optical behavior of the security element 2 is included in FIG. 5 a first observation condition explained.
  • the incident light 10 forms with a normal 15 to the level of the security element 2 an angle of about 40 °.
  • the pattern elements 4 absorb with the described relief structure 14 in the visible range up to 95% of incident light 10, the rest is scattered.
  • the reflecting background surface 3 however, only about 10% of the incident light 10 absorbs and reflects that rest. Since surface parts of the pattern elements 4 to the specular Background surfaces 3 adjoin, therefore results for the observer so strong contrast, that on a given background surface 3 of the Security elements 2 arranged in the predetermined pattern 25
  • Pattern elements 4 are easily recognizable as information.
  • the pattern 25 stops Logo, text, picture or other graphic sign.
  • the drawing of Figure 5 corresponds to the lighting conditions in Copy machine.
  • the Document 1 scatters the incident light 10 into the whole half space. Thereby scattered light is arranged in a direction of the normal 15 Light receiver 16 of the copier.
  • the incident light 10 falls below the same Incidence angle ⁇ on the pattern element 4, the incident light 10, however practically absorbed; both the light receiver 16 and the observer 19 register no light from the pattern element 4.
  • the pattern element 4 is therefore dark.
  • the background surfaces 3 form for the incident in the layer composite 6
  • Light 10 the plane mirror surfaces of the pattern 25, while the pattern elements 4 as absorber surfaces swallow the incident light 10 for the most part. Therefore, the observer 19 recognizes the background surfaces in the reflected light 17 3 as intensely bright partial surfaces and the pattern elements 4 as dark partial surfaces of the pattern 25. Scattered in directions other than that of the reflected light 17 the security element 2 only a small part of the incident light 10.
  • the Intensities per unit area of the background surfaces 3 and the Pattern elements 4 scattered light are practically the same size, so that no Contrast between the background areas 3 and the pattern elements 4 is available.
  • In the illumination with the directional incident light 10 is the from the background surfaces 3 and the pattern elements 4 formed pattern 25 in Contrary to a black and white image produced by printing technology only in that when specular reflection reflected light 17 recognizable.
  • the background surface 3 and the pattern member 4 throw so small a portion of the incident light 10 into the light receiver 16 that the copying machine reproduces the background field 3 and the pattern element 4 indiscriminately as black areas.
  • the advantage of this security element 2 is that the copying machine can not reproduce the information represented by the pattern element 4, while the observer 19, who in directed incident light 10 almost automatically tilts the security element 2 in such a way that he regards the background area 3 in reflection, the information of the pattern element 4 with great contrast in front of the background surface 3 sees.
  • the security element 2 can thus easily be distinguished by an attentive observer from reflecting metal foils on good color copies of the document 1.
  • a further advantage is the use of the relief structure 14 in the security element 2 with the periods d x (FIG. 4), d y (FIG. 4), which are shorter than the wavelengths of the coherent light sources usable for holographic copying methods; Therefore, a copy of the security element 2 can not be produced with the holographic methods.
  • FIG. 6 shows a second illumination condition for the two observers 19, 20 of the security element 2.
  • a polychromatic radiation source 21, eg halogen lamp, incandescent lamp etc., is arranged above the second observer 20 and transmits the incident light 10 to the pattern element 4 at a large angle of incidence ⁇ of approximately 60 ° to 80 °.

  • the diffracted light 22 includes the short wavelength part of the visually visible spectrum of the electromagnetic radiation.
  • the diffracted light 22 is therefore in a cyan to violet color depending on the diffraction angle ⁇ and the periods d x , d y .
  • the color of the diffracted light 22 observed at a predetermined diffraction angle ⁇ to the normal 15 also depends on the azimuth in intensity. Note: In the above consideration, the refractive influence of the protective layer 7 has been disregarded.
  • the first observer 19 looks in the direction of the reflected light Light 17 and recognizes the background surfaces 3 as shiny bright faces and the pattern elements 4 as dark faces of the pattern 25th
  • the diffracted light 22 can no longer be seen by the second observer 20 in the direction of the coordinate x or y, since the relief structure 14 no longer diffracts any visible light 22.
