Definitions

  • the present invention is related to the field of security document authentication.
  • it is directed to a simple device and a method for authenticating an optically variable entity, which exhibits a color shift if the viewing-angle changes.
  • a simple viewing device and a method for simultaneously ascertaining the different colors of an optically variable entity under two different viewing angles has been disclosed in US 5,596,402 A (Markantes et al. ).
  • the device essentially uses a mirror to simultaneously allow a direct viewing of the optically variable entity under a first viewing angle and an indirect viewing of the same entity via the mirror under a second viewing angle.
  • Authentication of the optically variable entity is performed by comparing the two colors perceived with two reference colors.
  • This device of the prior art has the shortcoming of requiring a comparison of the colors of the optically variable entity under two different perspectives, i.e. the two images to be compared have not the same size along one direction.
  • a further shortcoming of this device is its rather large volume requirement to accommodate for the optical paths related to the direct and indirect viewing described above.
  • DE 19729918A1 dislcoses a bank note comprising security features and a verification element for verifying the security features.
  • the verification element is integrated into the bank note.

  • part of the light from the optically variable entity must be deflected from said oblique to said orthogonal angle.
  • said deflection can be brought about by a mirror or by a prism, requiring optical paths of corresponding lengths.
  • a flat 2-dimensional array of micro-prisms in a plate of light-refracting material is used to produce said deflection from oblique to orthogonal angle.
  • the plate is preferably a planar plate having two macroscopically parallel surfaces.
  • the micro-prisms on the surface of said plate serve to obtain a deflection of orthogonally incident light away from orthogonal direction.

This embodiment is useful to obtain a specific "angular view", or some kind of averaged "angular view” onto the optically variable entity in the context of the present invention.
  • the present invention is based on the principle of optical refraction.

  • a refractive-index-increasing inorganic nanoparticulate material such as nanocrystalline Ti0 2 , having a refractive index of 2.0 or higher and a particle size below 50 nanometers in order to prevent light scattering effects at the individual particles.
  • the thermoplastic polymer can be formed, i.e. embossed, above its glass-transition temperature.
  • the glass-transition temperature (Tg) is known to the skilled person as the temperature above which the thermoplastic polymer changes from a quasi-solid (rigid) to a quasi-liquid (moldable) state.
