Definitions
- This invention relates to an optical device, and in particular to an optical device which, when illuminated by a light source generates one or more images which are observable from particular ranges of viewing angles around the device.
- the device may be used in a number of different applications, and it has particular application as an anti-forgery security device on banknotes, credit cards, cheques, share certificates and other valuable documents.
- OTDs optically variable devices
- EXELGRA EXELGRA
- KINEGRAMTM European patents EP 330,738 and EP 105099.
- the KINEGRAMTM and EXELGRAMTM devices are examples of foil based diffractive structures that have proven to be highly effective deterrents to the counterfeiting of official documents.
- This class of optically diffractive anti- counterfeiting devices also includes the PIXELGRAMTM device that is described in European patent number EP 0 490 923 B1 and US patent number 5,428,479.
- PIXELGRAMTM devices are manufactured by producing a counterpart diffractive structure wherein the greyness values of each pixel of an optically invariable image are mapped to corresponding small diffractive pixel regions on the PIXELGRAMTM device.
- a more general and useful approach to the design of optically reflecting or diffracting microstructures is obtained by utilising colour component values (such as the red, green and blue values) of each pixel in the optically invariable image and relating these parameters via a mathematical or computer algorithm to the parameters required to define the geometrical surface shape properties of each small surface region of the three dimensional reflective or diffractive microstructure.
- colour component values such as the red, green and blue values
- a method of manufacturing an optical device which generates an optically variable image the image being optically variable in that it varies according to the position of observation, the method including the steps of: dividing an optically invariable image into multiple pixels; determining colour component values for each pixel; for each of the pixels of the optically invariable image, determining an associated pixel surface structure which has a three-dimensional surface shape and curvature which is related via a mathematical or computer algorithm to the colour component values of the associated pixel in the optically invariable image, each pixel surface structure being an individual reflective or diffractive surface structure which produces an observable optical effect; and producing an assembly of the reflective or diffractive pixel surface structures which when illuminated generates a plurality of observable optical effects which combine to form an optically variable reproduction of the optically invariable image.
- an optical device providing an optically variable image, corresponding to an optically invariable counterpart image
- the optical device including a pixellated reflective structure which is an assembly of reflective surface relief pixels and which when illuminated generates the optically variable image, the image being optically variable in that it varies according to the position of observation, wherein each of the reflective surface relief pixels is an individual reflecting surface structure, and wherein the optically variability is produced by differing angular orientations of the individual reflective surface relief pixels.
- an optical device providing an optically variable image, corresponding to an optically invariable counterpart image, including a pixellated reflective or diffractive structure which is an assembly of reflective or diffractive surface relief pixels and which when illuminated generates an optically variable image, the image being optically variable in that it varies when viewed from different observation positions, wherein each of the reflective or diffractive pixels is an individual reflecting or diffracting three-dimensional surface structure which is directly related via a mathematical or computer algorithm to the colour component values of associated pixels of the optically invariable counterpart image.
- a method of printing an optically variable image onto a document including the steps of: (a) creating a printing plate which has on its surface an optically variable microstructure which has a depth of 15 microns or greater;
- Figure 1 illustrates an optically invariable image for use in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 1 B shows an enlarged detail of Figure 1.
- Figure 2 lists the different coloured pixels in the image of Figure 1.
- Figure 3 illustrates an example of a micro-surface structure in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 4 illustrates a mask element for generating the structure of Figure 3.
- Figure 5 illustrates an optical arrangement for manufacturing optical devices according to an embodiment of the invention.
- FIG. 6 illustrates different mask elements for use in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 7 shows examples of microstructure pixel elements according to an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 8 shows a group of coloured optically invariable pixels matched with microstructure pixel elements according to an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 9 illustrates artwork being mapped to microstructure pixels in accordance with an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 10 illustrates artwork being mapped to diffractive microstructure pixels in accordance with another embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 11 shows the palette of diffractive pixels used in Figure 10.
- Figure 12 shows an electron or ion beam exposure system for use in an embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 13 shows a mechanical device for use in an embodiment of the invention.
- the present invention relates to high security Optically Variable Device (OVD) microstructures and generalised reflecting or diffracting surface structures, particularly for non foil based applications where direct printing into the application substrate or direct reflection or diffraction from the replicated surface structure of the device is a specific requirement.
- OLED Optically Variable Device
- these new specialised microstructure geometries have a particular application related to direct printing onto the document via the use of specialised inks and lacquers.
- the microstructure of the OVD incorporates surface relief variations of relatively large depth dimension (eg 15 to 100 microns).
- ZORO Zero Order Reflective Optic
- These multiplexed micro-mirror array devices use reflection rather than diffraction as their fundamental OVD mechanism, and a typical OVD microstructure of this type may contain up to one million micro mirror surface regions of dimensions 30 microns X 30 microns or less with each mirror surface region designed with predetermined angle and curvature properties according to the input picture information.
- the origination of the device takes place via a multi-step process using a combination of electron beam lithography, plasma etching or wet chemical etching, photolithography and other specialised processes adopted from the semiconductor industry.
- Particular advantages of such ZORO devices include higher security and lower cost because all steps in the replication process take place within the security printing plant and there is no requirement for an off-line foil production facility.
- Figure 1 shows an example of an optically invariable image comprised of multiple picture elements or pixels defined by three colour values denoting the red (R), green (G) and blue (B) components of each pixel.
- RGB colour components are used, but it is to be understood that other colour components such as CMYK or HSB are equally usable.
- Figure 1 B shows the finite set of independent (R,G,B) values that have been used to construct the image of Figure 1. This set of (R,G,B) values is referred to as the RGB palette of Figure 1.
- Figure 3 shows an example of an associated micro-surface structure corresponding to a particular element of a set of (R,G,B) values.
- the micro-surface structure represent a micro-reflecting mirror structure and the R, G and B values of each optically invariable pixel determine the surface slope directions and degree of curvature of each of the corresponding micro reflecting mirror structures.
- the micro-surface pixel in this case is 30 microns in diameter.
- Figure 3 shows the micro-surface element itself, and the projection of the element onto the x-y plane.
- R 191
- Exel co-ordinates (Xe,Ye), which use an address grid of 1024 x 1024 exels to define the mask pixel area, are related to the X and Y co-ordinates by:
- Xe (Xm + X)(512/Xm)
- Ye (Ym - Y)(512/Ym).
- Xe (Xm + X)(512/Xm)
- Ye (Ym - Y)(512/Ym).
- Figure 5 shows an optical arrangement for manufacturing an optical device according to one aspect of the invention.
- UV light is allowed to pass through a transparent mask produced by electron beam lithography. After passing through the mask the optical arrangement ensures that the light is then allowed to fall on and expose a surface comprised of photosensitive material, which in this case has a thickness of 30 micron.
- Figure 6 shows an example of a set of transparent pixel elements that can be used as a mask palette to construct a two dimensional mask containing a multiplicity of transparent mask pixels representing the optically invariable image.
- the mask When the mask is placed in front of the optical arrangement shown in figure 5 and light of short wavelengths is allowed to pass through the mask and allowed to expose the thick optical resist substrate (shown also in figure 5) via the optical arrangement then, upon development of the resist substrate a reflecting surface configuration is obtained corresponding to the required surface relief structure.
- the four elements in Figure 6 use the same mathematical algorithm as Figure 4 although the apertures are shown here in white rather than black as in Figure 4. Different RGB values generate different light intensity distributions on the optical resist and therefore different pixel micro-surface geometries are formed after development of the optical resist.
- Figure 7 shows another example of a micro-surface palette function together with computer plots showing three pixel surface elements and their corresponding RGB parameter sets.
- Figure 8 shows a group of seven micro-surface palette elements belonging to the same family shown in Figure 7. RGB values and corresponding colour patches are also shown explicitly in Figure 8.
- Figure 9 shows the fundamental concept underpinning a key aspect of the invention.
- the same mathematical algorithm used in Figures 7 and 8 is used here to generate a small section of a surface microstructure corresponding to a small section of input artwork.
- the small section of input artwork corresponds to a particular arrangement of 36 input artwork pixels corresponding to three elements of the RGB palette.
- Figure 10 shows a small section of a diffractive optical device according to the invention and corresponding to the mapping of a set of optically invariable pixels onto a corresponding set of diffraction grating microstructure elements.
- Figure 11 shows an example of a diffraction grating palette and corresponding RGB values for the optical device shown in Figure 10.
- the micro-surface structure represent a micro diffraction grating structure and the R, G and B values of each optically invariable pixel determine the micro diffraction grating average groove direction, spatial frequency and the curvature of the grooves within each of the corresponding micro diffraction grating structures.
- Figure 12 shows a schematic representation of an electron beam or ion beam exposure system whereby the distribution of electron or ion intensity on the resist substrate is determined by the distribution of red (R), green (G) and blue (B) colour values in the optically invariable image.
- This method of manufacturing an optical device according to the invention includes the steps of: (a) forming a layer of electron or ion beam beam resist of thickness 100 microns or less on a conducting substrate,
- Figure 13 shows a mechanical device for producing an optical device according to the invention.
- the construction of this mechanical device includes the steps of :
