Definitions

  • the invention relates to an optically variable security element for securing valuables, having a feature area that exhibits at least two different optically variable effects.
  • the invention also relates to a method for producing such a security element and a correspondingly equipped data carrier.
  • Data carriers such as valuables or identity documents, or other valuables, such as branded articles, are often provided with security elements for the purpose of security, which permit verification of the authenticity of the data carriers and at the same time serve as protection against unauthorized reproduction.
  • Security elements with viewing-angle-dependent effects play a special role in the authentication of authenticity since they can not be reproduced even with the most modern copiers.
  • the security elements are thereby equipped with optically variable elements that give the viewer a different image impression at different viewing angles and, for example, show a different color or brightness impression and / or another graphic motif depending on the viewing angle.
  • the object of the invention is to specify a security element of the type mentioned in the introduction, in which the different optically variable effects are arranged in register with one another.
  • the feature region is provided in a first subregion with a microstructure having a first optically variable effect, in a second subregion of the feature region no microstructure is present, the feature region with a thin film element covering the microstructure is provided with interference layer structure, which in the second subregion as a second optically variable effect a
  • the interference layer structure of the thin-film element in the first and second subregions comprises a printed dielectric layer, by which the color shift effect is suppressed in the first partial area having the microstructure to the naked eye, so that in the first partial area only the first optically variable effect of the microstructure and in the second partial area as a second optically variable effect the color shift effect of the thin film element is present.
  • the suppression of the color shift effect in the first subregion is currently attributable to the fact that the dielectric layer material runs to some extent during printing and the surface of the dielectric thus does not or at least does not extend to the elevations and depressions of the microstructure can completely follow. This results in locally different dielectric layer thicknesses. Since the local thickness of the dielectric determines the colors at which constructive and destructive interference occurs, and thus also determines the color of the reflected light, the color-shifting layer system reflects different colors depending on the local thickness of the dielectric material. With a larger surface area, the different colors produce a gray or silvery hue, depending on the brightness.
  • the first section advantageously shows a non-colored, metallic, typically silvery appearance.
  • the reflective layer of the thin-film element can be formed from copper, which produces a reddish metallic appearance in the first subregion.
  • the printed dielectric layer has a locally irregular layer thickness in the first partial region having the microstructure, preferably with a thickness variation of 10% or more, particularly preferably 20% or more, 40% or more and in particular 60% or more ,
  • the thickness variation is related to the largest layer thickness, so that, for example, a dielectric layer whose thickness varies between 240 nm and 300 nm has a thickness variation of 20%.
  • the interference layer structure of the thin-film element comprises a reflection layer, an absorber layer and a dielectric spacer layer arranged between the reflection layer and the absorber layer.
  • the interference layer structure may advantageously also comprise two absorber layers and a dielectric spacer layer arranged between the two absorber layers.
  • the dielectric spacer layer need not only be formed by the printed dielectric layer, but may be formed also comprise two or more sub-layers, in particular a vapor-deposited dielectric layer and a printed dielectric layer.
  • the first subarea preferably has a microscopic rainbow color shift effect that can only be detected by magnification.
  • the microscopic rainbow color shift effect is preferably composed of a plurality of microscopic color dots of different colors, the largest dimension of the microscopic color dots between 1 ⁇ and 80 ⁇ , preferably between 1 ⁇ and 20 ⁇ , more preferably between 2 ⁇ and 5 ⁇ .
  • This microscopic rainbow color-shift effect can be used as a higher-level mark of authenticity, which can be tested only with special tools, such as a strong magnifying glass or a microscope.
  • the first subregion has in its interior a recessed region in which the dielectric spacer layer is recessed in the interference layer structure of the thin-film element.
  • the recessed area advantageously has a largest dimension between 10 .mu.-1 and 200 .mu.m, preferably between 20 .mu.m and 150.mu.m.
  • a recessed area can provide further hidden authenticity feature, since the recessed area and the rest of the first area have the same appearance when viewed with the naked eye, but the enlarged microscopic rainbow color-shift effect in the recessed area can be detected by magnified viewing. Even larger recesses with largest dimensions of several millimeters are conceivable.
  • Such large recessed areas can not be detected with a conventional microscope as a whole, the authenticity can be in the peripheral areas of the Recess areas occur where the transitions from colorless areas and "rainbow" areas are visible in the microscope.
  • the feature area of the security element has, in addition to the first and second subarea, a third and fourth subarea, wherein the feature area in the third subarea is provided with a microstructure having an optically variable effect the fourth subregion of the feature region has no microstructure, and the interference layer structure of the thin-film element in the third and fourth subregions contains a vapor-deposited dielectric layer but no printed dielectric layer, so that the thin-film element generates a color-tilting effect in the third and fourth subregions in the third subregion superimposed on the optically variable effect of the microstructure.
  • the interference layer structure of the thin-film element advantageously contains the vapor-deposited dielectric layer in all four subregions, so that it forms a dielectric spacer layer of the thin-film element in the first and second subarea together with the printed dielectric layer.
  • the microstructure of the third subregion is identical to the microstructure of the first subregion and generates the same optically variable effect.
  • the first and third sub-areas still show different appearances, since the thin-film element generates a color-shift effect in the third sub-area, while the color-shift effect in the first sub-area is suppressed.
  • the first subregion therefore only shows the optically variable effect produced by the microstructure, while this optically variable effect in the third subregion is combined with the color shift effect of the thin film element.
  • the microstructure of the first subarea is advantageously formed by a diffractive relief structure, such as a hologram structure, by a micromirror structure, by a microlens structure or by a microcavity structure. If the feature area contains the above-mentioned third subarea, the microstructure of the third subarea may alternatively or additionally be formed by one of the structures mentioned. As mentioned, the microstructures of the first and third subregions are preferably identical.
  • the invention also includes a data carrier with a security element of the type described.
  • the data carrier may in particular be a value document, such as a banknote, in particular a paper banknote, a polymer banknote or a film composite banknote, a share, a bond, a certificate, a coupon , a check, a high-quality entrance ticket, as well as an identification card, such as a credit card, a bank card, a cash card, an authorization card, an identity card or a pass personalization page.

  • an identification card such as a credit card, a bank card, a cash card, an authorization card, an identity card or a pass personalization page.
  • the invention further includes a method for producing an optically variable security element of the type described above, in which a carrier substrate is provided in a first subregion of the feature region with a microstructure having a first optically variable effect, no microstructure provided in a second subregion of the feature region is, the feature area with a microstructure covering thin-film element is provided with interference layer structure, which generates a color shift effect in the second portion as the second optically variable effect, and the interference layer structure of the thin-film element in the first and second portion is generated with a printed as a liquid paint dielectric layer in that the color shift effect in which the microstructure having the first partial area is suppressed to the naked eye, so that in the first partial area only the first optically variable effect of the microstructure and in the second subregion, the color shift effect of the thin-film element is present as the second optically variable effect.
  • a reflection layer or absorber layer is vapor-deposited in the first and second subarea for the production of the thin-film element. If a dielectric layer is vapor-deposited, then a dielectric layer in the form of a dielectric layer is applied imprinted liquid paint, and finally an absorber layer is evaporated.

  • the invention is not limited to security strips and banknotes but can be used with all types of security elements, for example labels on goods and packaging or in the security of documents, identity cards, passports, credit cards, health cards and like.
  • security threads or transfer elements may be considered in addition to security strips.
  • the optically variable security element 12 contains a feature region 14, which consists of two subregions 16, 18, which are distinguished in the figure with different very af benefits.
  • the first portion 16 is formed by two silvery squares 20 and the silvery shiny number sequence 22. Next, the first portion 16 shows a first optically variable effect in the form of a running effect, in which when tilting the security element 12, a bright horizontal bar seems to move up or down.
  • the second subregion 18 is formed by the remaining parts of the feature region 14 and shows a second optically variable effect in the form of a color shift effect, for example with a color change from green when viewed perpendicularly to blue when viewed obliquely.
  • a color shift effect for example with a color change from green when viewed perpendicularly to blue when viewed obliquely.
  • no color shift effect is recognizable to the observer, but this area appears to be non-colored with a metallic, in particular silvery, appearance.
  • the peculiarity of the described security element 12 consists in particular in the fact that the first and second subareas 16, 18 with their different visual appearances are perfectly matched to one another are. If, in conventional designs, the first partial region 16 with its optically variable running effect as a contrast to the color-shifting environment 18 has a silvery appearance, then the thin-film structure which gives the second partial region 18 its color-shift effect must be recessed in the first partial region 16, since otherwise also a color shift effect is visible. For this purpose, for example, a washing ink must be printed on the first sub-area, with the aid of which the subsequently applied thin-film structure in the first sub-area can be removed again.
  • wash ink is applied in a separate operation to an already suitably structured first portion 16, due to production inevitable Passerschwankept between the structuring and the recess in the thin film structure, so that the optically variable running effect and the color shift effect can not be arranged in register to each other.
  • the security element 12 of FIG. 1 has the structure shown schematically in FIG. 2 in cross-section.
  • a UV-curable embossing lacquer layer 32 is applied to a carrier film 30, for example a PET film, and provided with an embossed microstructure 34 in the first subregion 16, which generates the running effect described in connection with FIG.
  • the feature area 14 of the security element occupies the entire area of the carrier film 30.
  • the regions of the feature region 14 which are located outside the first subregion 16 provided with the microstructures 34 form the second subregion 18 in which no microstructures are present.
  • an interference layer structure thin-film element 40 comprising a reflective layer 42, a dielectric spacer layer 44 and an absorber layer 46 was applied to the entire feature area 14.
  • the dielectric spacer layer of such thin film elements is formed by vapor deposition, whereby a dielectric layer of uniform thickness is formed regardless of the local surface texture of the reflective layer 42.
  • the dielectric spacer layer 44 of the invention is printed as a liquid paint and subsequently cured. Solvent paints based on nitrocellulose, for example, which have good flow behavior, are very suitable.
  • the paint in liquid form By applying the paint in liquid form, the latter runs in the first subregion 16 with the microstructures 34 to a certain extent between the individual structural elements 36, thereby completely or partially leveling the microstructure 34.
  • the dielectric layer 44 therefore does not have a uniform layer thickness in the first subregion 16, so that no large-area color-shift effect visible to the naked eye can form there. On the contrary, the color-shift effect in the partial area 16 is effectively suppressed and appears substantially non-colored with the silvery appearance of the reflection layer 42.
  • the dielectric layer 44 is printed there with a uniform layer thickness on the flat substrate and the thin-film element 40 therefore produces the desired color-shift effect in a manner known per se. Since the dielectric layer 44 is printed over the entire feature area 14, including the first and second subareas 16, 18, and the suppression of the color shift effect is precisely in the area of the microstructures 34 of the first subarea 16, a perfect registration between the optical elements automatically results without additional measures variable effects of the two partial areas 16, 18, namely between the optically variable running effect of the partial area 16 and the color shift effect of the partial area 18.

  • the recess region 52 is advantageously arranged in the interior of the partial region 16, is also very small with a dimension of typically 20 ⁇ to 150 ⁇ . A registration of the recessed area 52 to other elements of the security element is therefore not important.
  • the recessed region 52 does not show a color shift effect because of the dielectric layer 44 missing there, but essentially only the silvery appearance of the reflection layer 42.
  • the presence of the recessed region 52 is therefore not visible to the naked eye. Only when looking at the section 50 with a microscope differences are clear.
