Definitions

  • the present invention particularly relates to a security structure and an article incorporating such a structure.
  • the present invention aims in particular to meet this need.
  • the color of the structure may vary from one face to the other, the structure appearing for example at least partially in blue on one side and at least partially in yellow on the other.
  • Authentication and / or identification of an article comprising such a structure can thus use two observation steps from respectively two opposite faces of the article, which reinforces the protection of the article against forgery.
  • the invention makes it possible, because of the presence of fluorescent zones of different colors, to create new optical effects.
  • the predefined lighting condition may correspond to ultraviolet illumination, in particular of near-visible wavelength, for example around 365 nm.
  • the predefined lighting condition corresponds to infrared illumination.
  • At least one of the first and second fluorescent zones are at least partially non-opaque, at least in the predefined lighting condition.
  • At least one of the first and second fluorescent zones are, in addition, substantially colorless in color.
  • White light is, in particular both.
  • the first and second fluorescent zones are superimposed at least partially so that, in the predefined lighting condition, a light passing successively through the two fluorescent zones has a third color, different from the first and second colors.
  • the authentication and / or identification of an article or document incorporating such a structure may comprise, in addition to two observation steps, in the predefined lighting condition, in reflection, first and second colors, at least one observation step in transmitted light to observe the third color.
  • the first and second fluorescent zones have absorption spectra chosen so that, in the predefined lighting condition, their superposition appears in transmitted light of a third or fourth color, each different from the first ones. and second colors, according to the order of the fluorescent zones traversed by the incident light.
  • the difference ⁇ E between the third and fourth colors, in the CIEL * C * h 1976 color space, may be at least 2, especially at least 5, which makes it easily observable.
  • Authentication and / or identification of an article or document can thus pass through the detection of four different colors, which further enhances security.
  • the first fluorescent zone appears yellow and the second blue fluorescent zone, and, observed in transmitted light, the structure has a violet color when it is observed from a first face and appears substantially white when it is observed from a second side, opposite to the first.
  • the colors and their number may be different from those described above.
  • the first and second fluorescent zones have absorption spectra chosen so that, in the predefined lighting condition, the superposition of the two fluorescent zones appears in transmitted light of substantially the same color, whatever the observation side.
  • the structure comprises at least a third fluorescent zone having a color different from the first fluorescent zone and observable on the same face, in the predefined lighting condition.
  • the structure When the order of superposition of the fluorescent zones is not without effect on the result produced during the observation in transmitted light, it is possible to observe on each side of the structure, in transmitted light, in the predefined lighting condition, an alternation of fluorescent zones appearing respectively of the third and fourth colors.
  • the structure whatever the face that is observed, the structure generally has the same appearance in the predefined lighting condition, which can facilitate authentication and / or identification.
  • the third fluorescent zone is adjacent to the first zone, respectively the second zone, these zones overlapping preferably substantially exactly.
  • the structure is advantageously non-opaque in a junction region of the first and third fluorescent zones, respectively of the second and fourth fluorescent zones.
  • Such a structure provides enhanced tamperproofing insofar as a defect in the arrangement of the fluorescent zones can be detected relatively easily. Indeed, when the fluorescent zones of the opposite faces of the structure are superimposed exactly, an observation of the structure by transparency, in the predefined lighting condition, reveals only one or two colors. On the other hand, when fluorescent zones of the opposite faces are not superimposed exactly and overflow on neighboring fluorescent zones, other colors are revealed.

  • the second portion has a shape chosen to define a pattern, which appears, in transmitted light, brighter than adjacent regions of the structure.
  • the second portion may, where appropriate, be entirely surrounded by the first.
  • the first portion has a shape chosen to define a pattern, which appears, in transmitted light, darker than adjacent regions of the structure.
