Definitions

  • the disclosure relates to security documents, in particular comprising a substrate layer with a printed security feature.
  • Security documents comprise various security features that make them difficult to be copied and falsified.
  • the security features may, for example, have a form of an imprint on a substrate of the document, comprising various digits, letters or other graphical symbols.
  • the security features may be permanent (i.e. the same for a group of documents) or personalized (i.e. individual for each document).
  • anti-stokes pigments which exhibit up-conversion luminescence - they are invisible for human eye in the visible light, but when excited by infrared light in the range of 900-1000nm they become visible in a specified colour, which depends on the pigment structure and its chemical composition.
  • the up-conversion luminescence occurs for up-conversion of luminescent pigments, when the excited electron in the pigment particle absorbs another energy quantum in the form of a photon, which results in additional excitation of the electron (it is transferred to an even higher energy band).
  • the excited electron subsequently returns to its base state, it emits a photon of energy which is the sum of the energy of both absorbed photons, decreased by the energy of the rotational-vibrational excitation of the pigment particle. Therefore, the energy emitted by the pigment particle results in radiation (electromagnetic wave) of a wavelength shorter than the wavelength of the absorbed radiation. Therefore, the emitted radiation is shifted towards higher frequencies.
  • the emitted radiation may be in the visible light spectrum.
  • the up-conversion luminescence is observed for some pigments having a crystal structure which are doped with ions of rare earth chemical elements: lanthanides, i.e. chemical elements with an atomic number between 59 and 71 (Ce - Lu).
  • a PCT patent application WO9513597A2 discloses a copy protection device that comprises a marking defined by a pair of inks which present a continuous, substantially plain coloured area when viewed and illuminated under visible light, but when the area is scanned at and/or illuminated under at least one wavelength outside the visible wavelength range, a pattern is generated which is detectable.
  • a US patent application US2011298204A1 discloses a a security mark with visible and hidden portions. Each first mark constituent is visible in a first lighting condition and is detectable in a second lighting condition; each second mark constituent is hidden in the first lighting condition and is detectable in the second lighting condition; each third mark constituent is visible in the first lighting condition and is hidden in the second lighting condition.
  • the first lighting condition is visible light and the second lighting condition is IR or UV light.
  • a PCT patent application WO2004050376A1 discloses a security device that comprises two or more regions, wherein each region contains a material or combination of materials wherein the two or more regions exhibit substantially the same visible appearance under first viewing conditions and different visible appearances under second viewing conditions.
  • the second viewing conditions comprise a combination of a) visible light and b) substantially any UV wavelength.
  • the different visibility of the areas in the IR region is due to different absorption spectrum of the inks used in the wavelength outside the visible wavelength range.
  • the prior art inks may have absorption spectra as shown in Fig. 4A .
  • a security document comprising a substrate with a printed security feature, which may take advantage of the up-conversion luminescence phenomenon, for securing the document against forgery and allowing an unequivocal and simple procedure for verification of the authenticity of the document.
  • the object of the invention is a security document comprising a substrate layer with a printed security feature comprising a first area and a second area, wherein in both areas the security feature is visible under visible light in a basic colour, characterized in that when excited with infrared light, the first area is visible in visible light in a first colour and the second area is visible in visible light in a second colour different than the first colour, wherein the security feature is a print layer made of a composition comprising, in the first area, a first additional up-conversion luminescence pigment excitable by the infrared light, and in the second area a second additional up-conversion luminescence pigment excitable by the infrared light, wherein the second additional pigment is different than the first additional pigment.
  • the security feature may be a print layer made of a composition comprising, in the first area and in the second area, a basic pigment visible in visible light.
  • the film-forming compositions of the first area and the second area may have substantially the same absorption spectra across the visible and infrared wavelengths.
  • the difference ⁇ E 1-2 between the first and the second colour in a CIELab space may be equal to at least 5.
  • the difference difference ⁇ E 1-B between the first colour and the basic colour, as well as the difference ⁇ E 2-B between the second colour and the basic colour may be equal to at least 5.
  • the first area may be located on the substrate layer in a distance from the second area.
  • the first area on the substrate layer may be adjacent to the second area.
  • the first area on the substrate layer may overlap, at least partially, the second area.
  • the security feature may be located between two layers of a substrate.
  • a security document 10 shown in a cross-section in the first embodiment in Fig. 1A , comprises a substrate layer 12 with a print layer 11 applied thereon.
  • the security document shown in a cross-section in the second embodiment in Fig. 1B differs from the first embodiment from Fig. 1A in that the print layer 11 is located between two layers of the substrate material 12, 13 - for example, it is printed on one of the layers 12 and subsequently covered with the second layer 13, wherein the two layers are subsequently laminated with each other.

  • the print layer comprises a first area 11a and a second area 11b.
  • the first area 11a may be applied on the substrate 12 in a distance from the second area 11b.
  • the first area 11a may be adjacent to the second area 11b.

  • the first additional pigment is different than the second additional pigment.
  • the pigments are uniformly distributed in the areas 11a, 11b, such that the areas 11a, 11b are visible in the visible light (VIS) as surfaces having a uniform colour.
  • VIS visible light
  • the security print layer 11 when the security print layer 11 is observed in the visible light, the same basic colour B is visible in both areas 11a, 11b, wherein the colour shade depends on the basic pigment used.
  • the security print layer 11 when the security print layer 11 is excited by infrared light, the first area 11a is visible in the visible light in the first colour (1), depending on the first additional pigment used, different than the second colour (2) which is visible on the second area 11b, depending on the second additional pigment used. This is schematically shown in Fig. 3 .
  • the first and the second additional pigments are preferably selected such that the first and the second colour, in which these pigments are visible in visible light when excited by infrared light, are distinctly different from each other.
  • the difference ⁇ E 1-2 between the first and the second colour in a CIELab space is equal to at least 5, and more preferably to at least 10.
  • ⁇ E ⁇ L 2 + ⁇ a 2 + ⁇ b 2
  • L brightness (luminance)
  • a - colour from green to magenta b - colour from blue to yellow.

  • the first and the second additional pigment are preferably selected such that the first and the second colour are distinctly different from the basic colour.
  • the difference ⁇ E 1-B between the first colour and the basic colour, as well as the difference ⁇ E 2-B between the second colour and the basic colour is equal to at least 5 and more preferably to at least 10.
  • the additional up-conversion luminescence pigments may be based on compounds having a matrix in a form of a crystalline lattice doped with trivalent rare earth elements including: Ho 3+ , Er 3+ , Gd 3+ , Yb 3+ , ions of alkaline earth elements: Ca 2+ , Sr 2+ , Ba 2+ or particular transition metals, such as Zr4+, Ti4+, whereas for creation of matrices of these pigments, particular halides may be used: NaYF 4 , YF 3 , LaF 3 , oxides for example Y 2 O 3 , ZrO 2 or sulfoxides Y 2 O 2 S, La 2 O 2 S.
  • the first and second areas preferably have substantially the same absorption spectra, preferably in the whole wavelength range. In particular, they have the same absorption spectra in the visible range and in the infrared range as shwon in Fig. 4B , which presents absorption spectra for 4 different film-forming compositions.
  • the term "substantially” is to be understood that the reflectance measured by the spectofotometer in one area is different from the reflectance in another area not more than 10%, and more preferably not more than 5% of the absolute value (for example, as shown in Fig. 4B , for 950 nm the lowest reflectance value is about 70% for one composition and the highest value is about 73% for another composition, therefore the difference is 3%).

  • the areas when the areas are not illuminated by the particular wavelength that excites the up-conversion pigments, the areas have the same visibility across all wavelengths, according to the absorption spectra shown in Fig. 4B , therefore there is no change in colour visible, whether the areas are observed under visible or infrared light.
  • the film-forming compositions for the areas 11a, 11b comprise a color base (defining the basic colour) and an additive of the up-conversion component, which has the same basic colour for visible light as the color base and further comprises a particular up-conversion luminescence pigment.
  • the amount of the up-conversion component may be different, depending on the visibility of the component.
  • additional components may be used for the composition, such as diluents, to obtain compositions of uniform colour and structure.
  • compositions can be used:
  • the security document 10 may have a form of a banknote, an identity card, a driving license, a passport, a credit card, a diploma, a certificate, or any other known security document.
  • the utility of the security document results in that the security feature is visible for a naked human eye as a printed area having a first colour in the visible light, whereas when excited by the infrared light in the range of 900-1000nm it is visible as a two-colour or a multicolour area. This allows fast and convenient localization of the security feature on the document substrate, in the visible light and subsequently verification of the authenticity of the document by illumination of the security feature with infrared light.
