Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a security document comprising a substrate and an optical security element incorporated in the substrate and relates to a method for checking the authentication of the security document. Moreover, the invention relates to a method for protecting a security document against forgery and for the authentication of the security document.
- The identification and authentication of security documents, e.g. banknotes, credit cards, identity cards, tickets, stamps etc., is a long-standing problem. In order to solve this goal, security elements have been developed to allow users and/or machines to discriminate between genuine and forged security documents, in particular banknotes, and/or to discriminate among different types of banknotes.
- Special substrates, special inks, the inclusion of watermarks and security threads are commonly used for protecting security documents, in particular banknotes, against forgery. Most of the security elements can be inspected with the naked eye. Another type of security elements are not visible with the naked eye, but can be inspected with a special device. Examples of such security elements are optical security elements based on fluorescent and polarisation effects.
-
WO 98/52077 - The above described optical liquid-crystal structure allows storing any kind of information in form of text and/or images for providing optical security elements which can be incorporated in security documents. However, for checking the authentication of the security documents comprising the above optical security elements, polarisers are necessary to make visible the information stored therein.
- When using an optical liquid-crystal structure as described in
EP-A 689 084 WO 9953349 A1 WO 98/52077 WO 98/52077 - It is an object of the present invention to simplify the checking of the authentication of a security document, in particular a banknote, comprising an optical security element for storing information which is not visible with the naked eye. Another object of the invention is providing a method for protecting a security document, in particular a banknote, against forgery and for the authentication of the security document, which simplifies the checking of the authentication of the security document.
- This problem is solved according to the invention with the features of the independent claims. Preferred embodiments are the subject-matter of the dependent claims.
- The security document according to the invention comprises a first liquid-crystal layer structure, a polariser, and a second liquid-crystal layer structure. The liquid-crystal molecules of the first layer structure have a first predetermined orientation pattern for storing information, while the liquid-crystal molecules of the second layer structure have a second predetermined orientation pattern for storing information. The information stored in the first and second liquid-crystal layer structures is not visible with the naked eye without an inspection tool.
- Both the first information stored in the first liquid-crystal layer structure and the second information stored in the second liquid-crystal layer structure are independently visible for the public using an inspection tool. Thus, the optical security element allow authentication of the security document by observing both the first and second information which can be a text or an image or a combination of text and image.
- The method for checking the authentication of the optical security element according to the invention is based on the use of a liquid-crystal display as a means for providing polarised light. Liquid-crystal displays emitting polarised light are well known. Since the screens of mobile telephones and cameras or other devices, e.g. a mobile TV, are liquid-crystal displays, mobile phones or cameras can be used by the public for making visible the stored information. Since the security document of the invention does not require a very special inspection tool, the inspection is simplified for the user.
- The first information becomes visible when placing the optical security element of the security document on the liquid-crystal display in an orientation in which one of the sides of the optical security element is lying on the liquid-crystal display, while the second information becomes visible when placing the optical security element on the liquid-crystal display in an orientation in which the other of the sides of the optical security element is lying on the liquid-crystal display.
- According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the first predetermined orientation pattern is different from the second predetermined orientation pattern so that the first and second information distinguish from each other. However, it is basically possible to store the same information, e.g. text and/or image, in both liquid-crystal structures which can be inspected from both sides of the security document.
- It is an important aspect of the invention that the substrate of the security document comprises a cutout and the optical security element is located in the cutout of the substrate. The optical security element can be placed on the upper or lower side of the substrate or can be incorporated in the substrate. Preferably, the optical security element is inserted into the substrate during the paper manufacturing process.
- The above designated liquid-crystal layer structures as such are disclosed in e.g.
EP-A 689 084 WO 9953349 A1 WO 98/52077 - The optical security element of the invention is transparent under normal lighting conditions. The security element can be combined with other security features having surface grating effects, in particular with holograms, diffractive optical elements (DOE) zero order gratings etc. These security features can be incorporated in an additional layer in the polariser between the first and second liquid-crystal layer structures.
- For the purpose of illustrating the present invention, a preferred embodiment of the invention will now be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 shows the front side of a banknote comprising an optical security element according to the invention. The banknote comprises asubstrate 1 made of a flexible material, e.g. the substrate is made of paper. Agraphical design printing 2 is provided on the front side and the backside of the banknote. The banknote comprises conventional security elements, e.g. a security thread 3 made of a metal strip and a hologram 4. - The
optical security element 5 of the banknote is a plastic band which has under normal lighting conditions a transparent appearance. The plastic band of theoptical security element 5 is located in a cutout 6 of thesubstrate 1 of the banknote. Thus, under normal lighting conditions the optical security element appears as a window in the banknote. As will be described hereinafter, only under special lighting conditions, the information stored in the optical security element becomes visible for the public. - The plastic band of the optical security element is incorporated in the paper of the substrate during the paper manufacturing process. A method for incorporating a plastic band in the paper of a banknote is described for example in
AT 412 078 B -
Fig. 2 shows in a simplified schematic representation the layer structure of the optical security element. The security element comprises a first liquid-crystal layer structure 7 and a second liquid-crystal layer structure 8 as well aspolarizing sheet 9 arranged between the first and second liquid-crystal layer structures 7, 8. - The first liquid-crystal layer structure 7 comprises an anisotropic layer consisting of cross-linked liquid-crystal monomers 7A (LCP layer). The orientation of the molecular arrangement of the LCP layer is predetermined by the orientation of an
orientation layer 7B which adjoins the LCP layer 7A. Theorientation layer 7B is a photo-oriented polymer network (PPN) whose orientation varies locally over its surface. The orientation is determined by selective exposure to linearly polarized UV light. This liquid-crystal layer structure allows storing of information, i.e. a first image in the preferred embodiment. A method for producing the above liquid-crystal layer structure is described for example inEP-A 689 084 WO 9953349 A1 US- , andA 5 389 698WO 98/52077 - The second liquid-
crystal layer structure 8 has the same structure as the first liquid-crystal layer structure 7. Bothlayer structures 7, 8 are hybrid structures consisting of cross-linked liquid-crystal monomers 7A, 8A (LCP layer) and a photo-oriented polymer network (PPN) 7B, 8B. In the preferred embodiment, the second liquid-crystal layer structure 8 stores a second image. In the preferred embodiment, the directions of orientation of the first and second liquid-crystal layer structures 7, 8 include a right angle. -
Fig. 3A to 3C illustrate the inspection of the optical security element. InFig. 3A to 3C , the first and second liquid-crystal layer structures 7, 8 (Fig. 2 ) showing the first and second images are designated with "1" and "2", respectively. - Under normal lighting conditions, the first and second images are not visible for the public when observing both the upper side and the lower side of the banknote (
Fig. 3C ) and the optical security element is transparent. Under special lighting conditions, however, both images become visible. - It is an important aspect of the invention that the user does not need a very special tool rather than the screen (LCD) of a mobile phone or a camera for making visible the images.
- The second image becomes visible when placing the optical security element of the banknote with its lower side on the screen (LCD) and observing the upper side of the banknote with the naked eye (
Fig. 3A ). Accordingly, the first image becomes visible when placing the optical security element with its upper side on the screen (LCD) and observing the lower side of the banknote with the naked eye (Fig. 3B ). The image is visible independent of the orientation of the optical security element on the screen. By rotating the security element on the screen, the image changes from positive to negative and vice versa.
