Definitions
- the invention relates to a moire magnification device such as a security device, for example for use on security documents and other articles of value such as banknotes, cheques, passports, identity cards, certificates of authenticity, fiscal stamps and other documents for securing value or personal identity. It also relates to optical devices for use on packaging or the like.
- a moire magnification device such as a security device, for example for use on security documents and other articles of value such as banknotes, cheques, passports, identity cards, certificates of authenticity, fiscal stamps and other documents for securing value or personal identity. It also relates to optical devices for use on packaging or the like.
- Moire magnification has been used as the basis of security devices for a number of years. A number of examples are described in WO-A-94/27254 and EP-A-1695121.
- a regular array of micro-focusing elements defining a focal plane is provided over a corresponding array of image elements located in a plane substantially aligned with the focal plane of the focusing elements.
- the pitch or periodicity of the array of image elements is chosen to differ by a small factor from the pitch or periodicity of the focusing elements and this mismatch means that magnified versions of the image elements are generated.
- the magnification factor depends upon the difference between the periodicities or pitches.
- a pitch mismatch between a microlens array and a microimage array can also conveniently be generated by rotating the microimage array relative to the microlens array or vice-versa, such that the microlens array and microimage array have a rotational misalignment.
- the rotational misalignment or the small pitch mismatch results in the eye observing a different part of the image in each neighbouring lens resulting in a magnified image. If the eye is then moved relative to the lens/image array a different part of the image is observed giving the impression that the image is in a different position. If the eye is moved in a smooth manner a series of images are observed giving rise to the impression that the image is moving relative to the surface.
- the nature of the movement and orientation changes can be explained from the theory of moire; this is discussed in detail in "The theory of the Moire phenomenon” by I. Amidror published by Kluiver Academic Publishers in 2000, ISBN 0-7923-5949-6.
- the moire effect of two periodic structures can be explained/predicted by considering the frequency vectors of the two structures.
- the orientation of the frequency vector represents the direction of the periodicity and the length represents the frequency (i.e. 1/Period).
- the vector is expressed by its Cartesian coordinates (u,v) where u and v are the horizontal and vertical components of the frequency.
- the focusing elements comprise microlenses or micromirrors and the image elements are defined by simple icons or the like.
- a moire magnification device comprises a transparent substrate carrying:
- each unit cell comprising at least two microimage components
- pitches of the micro-focusing elements and the array of microimage element unit cells and their relative locations are such that the array of micro-focusing elements cooperates with the array of microimage element unit cells to generate magnified versions of the microimage components due to the moire effect, wherein first microimage components of the unit cells have a colour density different to the colour density of the other, second microimage components,
- a further coloured layer is provided on or extending over the array of microimage element unit cells such that when the device is viewed, at least the second microimage components appear in a colour dependent at least partly on the further coloured layer and which is different from the colour of the first microimage components.
- the first and second microimage components could define separate microimages and they may be spaced apart or adjacent or even abut one another.
- the two microimage components could also form parts of a larger symbol or other alphanumeric character, graphic design or the like as will be described below.
- a convenient way of achieving a variation in colour density between the microimage components is to print one in the form of a screened pattern such as a halftone screen.
- a screened pattern such as a halftone screen.
- other methods for achieving the difference in colour density could be used such as the application of different ink thicknesses.
- Different ink thicknesses can be achieved for example in gravure printing utilising a cylinder with engraved cells of varying depth or by using conventional intaglio printing.
- the first microimage components are formed by an opaque colour although this is not essential.
- the further coloured layer typically presents a uniform colour although further difficult to reproduce effects can be achieved by providing the further coloured layer in a colour which varies laterally across the device. In this way, very complex magnified versions of the microimage components can be obtained.
- the first microimage components define a first array with a first pitch and the second microimage components define a second array with a second, different pitch, each pitch being different from the pitch of the microforming elements whereby the magnified versions of the first and second components appear at different depths.
- the pitches of the two arrays differ and thus there is a risk that the microimage components of one array will overlap those of the other.
- the lateral dimensions of the first and second arrays is such that the microimage components of the first array do not overlap the microimage components of the second array.
- microimage components may typically comprise icons such as symbols, geometric figures, alphanumeric characters and the like and most preferably provide information.
- the microimage components are printed on the substrate using any suitable printing process such as gravure, wet or dry lithographic printing, screen printing, intaglio printing and flexo printing.
- microimage components could also be formed as grating structures, recesses or other relief patterns on the substrate.
- Anti-reflection structures may also be used as described in WO-A-2005/106601.
- Micro-focusing elements such as microlenses and concave mirrors, are preferably formed by embossing into the substrate surface, cast-curing or the like.
- Moire magnification devices generated by the current invention can be either 2 - dimensional (2D) or 1 - dimensional (1 D) structures.
- 2D moire magnification structures using spherical lenses are described in more detail in EP-A-1695121 and WO-A-94/27254.
- a 2D moire magnifier the microimages are magnified in all directions.
- a 1 D moire magnification structure the spherical microlenses or micromirros are replaced with a repeating arrangement of cylindrical microlenses or micromirrors. The result of this is that the microimage elements are subject to moire magnification in one axis only which is the axis along which the mirrors exhibit their periodic variations in curvature or relief.
- micro-images are strongly compressed or de-magnified along the magnification axis whilst the size or dimension of the micro image elements along the axis orthogonal to the magnification axis is substantially the same as they appear to the observer - i.e. no magnification or enlargement takes place.
- the moire magnification device generated by the current invention can form a security device by itself but could also be used in conjunction with other security features such as holograms, diffraction gratings and other optically variable effect generating structures.
- the device can be used to authenticate a variety of substrates - with the nature of the substrate, in particular its thickness and flexibility having an influence on the corresponding properties of the optical device.
- the invention has particular value in protecting flexible substrates such as paper and in particular banknote, where the device could define a patch, strip or thread.
- the thickness of the device will be influenced by how its employed within the banknote though to both avoid deformation of paper ream shape during the banknote printing process and further more the form and flexibility of the banknote itself, it is desirable that the thickness of the device does not exceed half of the thickness of the banknote itself (typically 85-120um) - therefore it anticipated that in any embodiment the optical device will be less than 50um including securing adhesives and preferably substantially so.
- the desired thickness will range from a few microns (excluding securing adhesive) to a maximum of 35 - 40um (again excluding adhesive) for a label. Whilst for the case of a strip, the thickness will range again from a few micrometers for the case of a hot-stamped or transferred strip, up to 35-40um for the case of a non transferred strip wherein the supporting carrier layer is retained (again excluding securing adhesives) as would be necessary should the strip be applied over a mechanical aperture in the banknote substrate.
- final thickness is in the range of 20 -50um.
- Thicker versions of the security device could be employed in applications which include passport paper pages, plastic passport covers, visas, identity cards, brand identification labels, anti-tamper labels ⁇ any visually authenticable items.
- the device could be provided in a transparent window of a security document to enable it to be viewed in transmission.

- Figure 17 is a cross-section similar to Figure 8 but of a mirror based embodiment.
- FIG. 1 illustrates schematically a banknote 1 having a security thread 2 exposed at windows and a further transparent window 3.
- the banknote 1 may be made of paper or polymer (such as bi-axially oriented polypropylene) and one or both of the security thread 2 and window 3 incorporates a security device according to the invention.
- Figures 2-5 illustrate a comparative example of a security device.
- the appearance of the security device when viewed normally, i.e. perpendicularly is a first array 10 of magnified image elements, in this case red coloured icons 10A in the form of a figure '5' against a background 1 1 formed by a magnified set of blue stars in pairs of large and small stars.
- the relative depths of the icons 10A and background 1 1 can be seen more clearly in Figure 3 where the '5' icons 1 1 appear below the upper surface of the substrate 7 with the background plane 1 1 below the '5' icons 10A.
- Figure 4 illustrates the components of the security device in more detail.
- the background 1 1 is formed by an array of unit cells 1 1A ( Figure 4A) arranged side by side in an array as shown in Figure 4B.
- the '5' icons 10A are formed as an array of unit cells as shown in Figures 4C and 4D.
- the pitch of the unit cells 1 1 A of the background array 11 in the X and Y directions is A2y, A2x.
- the pitch of the '5' icons 10A is A1x, A1y.
- A2x equals A2y
- A1x equals A1y.
- Figure 5 illustrates in cross-section the overall structure of the device shown in Figures 2-4.
- the device comprises a transparent, PET or other polymer layer 20 (corresponding to substrate 7) on the upper surface of which is formed a two-dimensional array of spherical microlenses 22.
- the diameters of the microlenses 22 is typically in the range 1 -100 microns, preferably 1 -50 microns and even more preferably 10-30 microns, thus defining pitches in a similar range.
- the focal length of the microlenses 22 is substantially equal to the thickness t of the optical spacer layer which in this example comprises the thickness of the substrate 20 plus the thickness of a print receptive layer 21 on the opposite surface of the substrate 20 to the microlens array 22 so as to define a focal plane 24 substantially coincident with the surface of the print receptive layer.
- the microimage array of '5' icons 10A is first printed on the print receptive layer 21 in a red colour.
- the background array 1 1 is printed in a blue colour. It will be seen in Figure 5 that the two arrays are each printed on the print receptive layer 21 coincident with the focal plane 24 although the background print 11 also overlaps the '5' icon array 10 as shown at 25.
- the present invention is not limited to any specific type or geometry of microlens, the only requirement being that the microlens can be used to form an image.
- Microlenses suitable for the present invention include those that refract light at a suitably curved surface of a homogenous material such as planoconvex lenslets, double convex lenslets, and fresnel lenses.
- the present invention will comprise spherical microlenses but lenses of any symmetry including cylindrical lenses could be employed. Both spherical and aspherical surfaces are applicable to the present invention. It is not essential for the microlenses to have a curved surface.
- Gradient refractive index (GRIN) lenses image light by a gradual refraction throughout the bulk of the material as a result of small variations in refractive index.
- Microlenses, based on diffraction, such as Fresnel zone plates can also be used.
- GRIN lenses and amplitude or mask based fresnel zone plates enable the surface containing the microlens array to be planar and offers advantage in print receptivity and durability.
- Master microlens arrays can be produced by number of techniques such as photothermal techniques, melt and reflow of photoresist and photoresist sculpture. Such techniques are known to those skilled in the art and are detailed in chapter 5 of "Micro-Optics: Elements, Systems, and Applications” edited by Hans Peter Herzig, published by Taylor and Francis, reprinted 1998.
- the master microlens structure can then be physically copied by commercially available replication techniques such as hot embossing, moulding or casting.
- microlens structures can be replicated include but are not limited to thermoplastic polymers such as polycarbonate and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) for the hot embossing and moulding processes and acrylated epoxy materials curable by heat or radiation for the casting process.
- thermoplastic polymers such as polycarbonate and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) for the hot embossing and moulding processes and acrylated epoxy materials curable by heat or radiation for the casting process.
- PMMA polymethylmethacrylate
- the microlens array is replicated via casting into a UV curable coating applied to a carrier polymer film such as PET.
- a pitch mismatch is introduced between the microimage array and the microlens array.
- One method is to have a microlens and microimage array with substantially the same pitch where the pitch mismatch is achieved by introducing a small rotational misalignment between the microimage and microlens array.
- the degree of rotational misalignment between the microimage and microlens array is preferably in the range I ff- 0.0 ⁇ ?, which results in a magnification range of between -4X-1000X for the microimage array. More preferably the rotational misalignment is in the range ? - 0.1 ° which results in a magnification range of between -25X-500X for the microimage array.
- microimage array and microlens array are in substantially perfect rotational alignment but with a small pitch mismatch.
- a small pitch mismatch would equate to a percentage increase/decrease of the pitch of the microimage array relative to the microlens array in the range 25% - 0.1 %, which results in a magnification range of between -4X-1000X for the microimage array.
- the percentage increase/decrease of the pitch of the microimage array relative to the microlens array is in the range 4% - 0.2%, which results in a magnification range of between -25X-500X for the microimage array.
- the degree of magnification achieved is defined by the expressions derived in "The Moire magnifier", M. Hutley, R Hunt, R Stevens & P Savander, Pure Appl. Opt. 3 (1994) pp.133-142.
- magnification M is given by:
- M A / SORT [(Bcos(Theta) - A) 2 - (B sin(Theta)) 2 ] where, Theta equals angle of rotation between the 2 arrays.
- Figures 2a-2c show the second array 1 1 in different registration positions relative to the first array 10.
- the key point is that the design & choice of the first and second array elements or icons 10A, 1 1 A is such that there is no significant change in information, content, symbolic relevance or aesthetic appearance when the position of one array is varied relative to the other - in other words the two arrays are not registration sensitive or have a strongly preferred register requirement.
- icon types which are especially information bearing, for example a denominational or alphanumeric symbol or such like are located in the first array 10 which is visualised as being in front of the second array 1 1 .
- each unit cell 1 1A of the second array 11 is comprised of two identical icons i.e. a large and small star -as a consequence, in informational terms there is a redundancy of information in each unit cell.
- This redundancy property means that if at some relative registration between the two arrays the icon pattern from the first array (the 5's) substantially obscures the array of larger stars, then the smaller star icon array can be readily visualised without significant obscurement or interference from the first array.
- the describable optically variable is insensitive (i.e. substantially invariant) to uncontrolled manufacturing variations in the register of the first icon array 10 to the second array 1 1. This is an important aspect of this invention.
- Figures 2 & 5 were comprised of micro lenses 22 with a focal length f of 40 ⁇ or 0.04mm. Furthermore let us suppose both the micro lenses and the supporting substrate 20 where both comprised of materials with refractive index n of 1.5. Then it follows that the base diameter D of the lenses will constrained by the expression
- the fist image array 1 1 In a second example suppose we required the fist image array 1 1 to be located 2mm in front of the surface plane, whilst the second image array 1 1 remains located 6mm behind the surface plane.
- the first image array 10 will form a real inverted image and thus the sign of the magnification will be negative (which follows from assigning a negative value for the image distance v in the previous expression for magnification).
- the microfocussing elements comprise lenses. However, these could be replaced by concave reflectors as is known in the art.
- Figure 6 shows a microimage unit cell 100 consisting in the example of a solid inked or opaque K followed by a screened (and thus semi-translucent) 5 - this screening may take the form of a linear screen as shown in Figure 6 or a half tone screen as shown in the unit cell 100' of Figure 7 or any variation in between.
- a cross-sectional view of this device is shown in Figure 8. Illustrating a transparent plastic substrate 250 on one surface of which is provided a microlens array 252 and on the other surface a print receptive layer 251 is provided on which is provided the microimage array (layer 1 ) 254.
- the print receptive layer 251 can also function as a focal adjustment layer.
- the same side of the device is then over coated with a second colour 256 with the effect that the magnified synthetic image of the 5 has a colour which is the superposition of the first and second colours.
- a second colour 256 with the effect that the magnified synthetic image of the 5 has a colour which is the superposition of the first and second colours.
- the first colour used to print the K5 unit cells 100 was blue and then the second colour applied as a uniform coating 256 was yellow then it follows that in the synthetically magnified image array the K's will appear in blue (since the K was printed with a substantially opaque colour) and the 5's will appear in a shade of green, the hue of which will depend on the relative weighting of blue and yellow present in the 5's - as shown in Figure 9.
- the background colour 256 contrasts both in hue and brightness relative to the colour of the unit cells 254.
- Ink or colorant thickness for the printed micro images is envisaged to fall in range 0.2 - 3 ⁇ but especially 0.5 - 1.0 ⁇ .
- Ink or colorant thickness for the background colour will vary according to opacity requirements but is envisaged to fall within the range 0.5 - 5 ⁇ and especially 1 -3 ⁇ .
- the second colour is applied as a uniform coating 256.
- the unit cell 100 comprises two separate microimage components: K and 5. It would also be possible to utilise microimage components that abut one another and form portions of a more complex image.
- An example is shown in Figure 10 where the unit cell in Figure 10A is made up of two microimage components, a solid circle 300 having a partial cut-out within which part of a screened circle 302 is printed.
- Figure 10B When the device is viewed ( Figure 10B) an array of "8s" will be seen with the colour of the figure 8 varying in a vertical dimension.
- This break can conveniently be formed so as to define a cutting region when forming a security thread or the like.
- the corresponding microimage array will look like the schematic shown in Fig 1 1 A.
- the K and 5 have the desired mutual register - however the K array by virtue of its lesser depth and thus magnification will have a smaller pitch in both axes causing the two arrays to move out slightly out of register until at the corner location (shown top left) the two symbols are virtually touching - which we consider to be limits of acceptability.
- Fig 1 1 A shows the center element and the top corner elements and the shift in register is characterised by the difference ⁇ - ⁇ ⁇ and the difference ⁇ - ⁇ (Fig. 1 1 B).
- Fig. 1 1 B we may calculate the size of the array for which the shift reaches limiting value as follows:
- n x ( ⁇ - ⁇ 1 ) / ( ⁇ 1 ⁇ - ⁇ 2 ⁇ )
- the security device could be fabricated as a mirror- based moire device as shown in Figure 14.
- the spherical microlens array is replaced by a spherical or aspheric concave mirror array 300 formed on one surface of the transparent polymer substrate 310 .
- the other surface is provided with the same array of microimage cells as described with reference to Figure 8.
- this printed array 254 the same side of the device is then overcoated with a second colour 256 with the effect that the magnified synthetic image of the 5 has a colour which is a superposition of the first and second colours.
- This structure is intended for viewing only in reflection mode and thus is most relevant for application onto opaque substrates (strip & patch) or partially embedding into opaque substrates (windowed thread).
- the printed micro images must be coincident with the focal plane of the mirrors to a precision determined by the depth of focus or field of the mirror system.
- the incident light has to pass through or be transmitted by the layer of the second colour and the microimage cells of the first colour before being reflected back as collimated light by the mirror array, then it follows that at least the second colour layer and at least one of the components of the microimage element (in this case the 5) must be at least partially transluscent to enable them to appear in the intended colour. If, as in this example, one of the microimage components is opaque then this component will appear black in the final device,
- the metal coating on the mirrors will also effect the background colour and the colour of the transluscent microimage component or components.
- the metal coating can be a 'white' reflector such as Aluminium or other coloured metals such as Copper or it alloys maybe be used. Other metals such as Silver, Gold, Platinum, Chrome, Nickel, Nickel-Chrome, Palladium, Tin etc may also be used.
- the focal length of a concave mirror is equal to half its radius of curvature R and therefore can have a limiting minimum value approaching one quarter of the mirror base diameter.
- the focal length and F number of a mirror can be one quarter of the value of equivalent lens (assuming typical refractive index of 1.5).
- reducing F number equates to reducing depth of focus, then in practice it will often be desirable to have a mirror base diameter much less than 2R.
- microimage elements have been provided by printing onto the substrate. It would also be possible to provide some or all of the image elements as relief structures and examples of some of these are shown in Figures 12A-12J. In these Figures, ⁇ ' indicates the parts of the relief generating an image while ' ⁇ indicates those parts which do not generate an image.
- Figure 12A illustrates embossed or recessed image elements.
- FIG. 12B illustrates debossed image elements.
- Figure 12C illustrates image elements in the form of grating structures while Figure 12D illustrates moth-eye or other fine pitch grating structures.
- Figure 12E illustrates image elements formed by gratings in recesses areas while Figure 12F illustrates gratings on debossed areas.
- Figure 12G illustrates the use of a rough embossing.
- Figure 12H illustrates the provision of print on an embossed area while Figure 121 illustrates "Aztec" shaped structures.
- Figure 12J illustrates ink filled recesses.
- the various embodiments of the device construction described above can be slit or cut into patches, foils, stripes, strips or threads for incorporation into plastic or paper substrates in accordance with known methods.
- the current invention could be incorporated into a security paper as a windowed thread.
- the security device also includes one or more other optical security features.
- An example of this is shown in Figure 13.
- a moire magnifier device 400 is formed as described with reference to Figures 6-10.
- the security device also includes a number of holographic image generating structures 411 -416.
- the holographic image structures can be cast or embossed into the same resin as the microlenses but equally two different resins, one suitable for casting the microlenses and one suitable for embossing a holographic structure could be applied in register.
- the holographic structures could be embossed into a polymeric lacquer positioned on the opposite side of the polymeric layer to the microlenses.
- the holographic generating structures can be in the form of holograms or DOVID image elements.
- the microlenses and the magnified image array is located in a central horizontal band or region of the label whilst the holographic generating structures are located on either side.
- the holographic generating structures could be located in a central band or strip with the moire magnifier being provided in one or more regions on either side.
- moire magnified images and the image provided by the holographic generating structures could be integrated into a single image by each providing components of a single image.
- Figure 14 illustrates an example of such an integrated design where the holographic generating structures 420 form a scroll and in the middle of the scroll the holographic structures are replaced with a moire magnifier 422 to create a moire magnified image in this case of moving "5"'s and stars.
- the holographic structures can have any conventional form and can be fully or partially metallised.
- the reflection enhancing metallised layer can be replaced with a substantially transparent inorganic high refractive index layer, such as ZnS.
- the security devices shown in the previous figures are suitable to be applied as labels to secure documents which will typically require the application of a heat or pressure sensitive adhesive to the outer surface of the device which will contact the secure document.
- an optional protective coating/varnish could be applied to the exposed outer surface of the device. The function of the protective coating/varnish is to increase the durability of the device during transfer onto the security substrate and in circulation.
- the security device is preferably prefabricated on a carrier substrate and transferred to the substrate in a subsequent working step.
- the security device can be applied to the document using an adhesive layer.
- the adhesive layer is applied either to the security device or the surface of the secure document to which the device is to be applied.
- the carrier strip can be removed leaving the security device as the exposed layer or alternatively the carrier layer can remain as part of the structure acting as an outer protective layer.
- the security device of the current invention can also be incorporated as a security strip or thread.
- Security threads are now present in many of the world's currencies as well as vouchers, passports, travellers' cheques and other documents. In many cases the thread is provided in a partially embedded or windowed fashion where the thread appears to weave in and out of the paper.
- windowed threads can be found in EP0059056.
- EP0860298 and WO03095188 describe different approaches for the embedding of wider partially exposed threads into a paper substrate. Wide threads, typically with a width of 2-6mm, are particularly useful as the additional exposed area allows for better use of optically variable devices such as the current invention.
- the security device of the current invention can be made machine readable by the introduction of detectable materials in any of the layers or by the introduction of separate machine-readable layers.
- Detectable materials that react to an external stimulus include but are not limited to fluorescent, phosphorescent, infrared absorbing, thermochromic, photochromic, magnetic, electrochromic, conductive and piezochromic materials.
- Additional optically variable materials can be included in the security device such as thin film interference elements, liquid crystal material and photonic crystal materials. Such materials may be in the form of filmic layers or as pigmented materials suitable for application by printing.
- the security device of the current invention may comprise an opaque layer.
- Figures 15 and 16 show a further security feature in the form of a demetallised image 500 incorporated within a security device of the current invention.
- the moire magnified image array 510 of the device are observed In the central band of the device.
- the structure of the feature shown in Figure 15 along section A-A is as shown in Figure 8.
- the print receptive layer has been metallised 520 .
- Parts of the metal layer are demetallised to define the demetallised images thus enabling the creation of demetallised indicia which can be viewed in reflective but more preferably transmitted light.
- the metallised layer forming the micromirrors may be extended beyond the micormirrors and then parts of this layer can be demetallised to define demetallised images.
- One way to produce partially metallised/demetallised films in which no metal is present in controlled and clearly defined areas, is to selectively demetallise regions using a resist and etch technique such as is described in US-B-4652015.
- Other techniques for achieving similar effects are for example aluminium can be vacuum deposited through a mask, or aluminium can be selectively removed from a composite strip of a plastic carrier and aluminium using an excimer laser.
- the metallic regions may be alternatively provided by printing a metal effect ink having a metallic appearance such as Metalstar® inks sold by Eckart.
- a transparent magnetic layer can be incorporated at any position within the device structure.
- Suitable transparent magnetic layers containing a distribution of particles of a magnetic material of a size and distributed in a concentration at which the magnetic layer remains transparent are described in WO03091953 and WO03091952.
- the security device of the current invention may be incorporated in a security document such that the device is incorporated in a transparent region of the document.
- the security document may have a substrate formed from any conventional material including paper and polymer. Techniques are known in the art for forming transparent regions in each of these types of substrate.
- WO8300659 describes a polymer banknote formed from a transparent substrate comprising an opacifying coating on both sides of the substrate. The opacifying coating is omitted in localised regions on both sides of the substrate to form a transparent region.
- EP1 141480 describes a method of making a transparent region in a paper substrate. Other methods for forming transparent regions in paper substrates are described in EP0723501 , EP0724519, EP1398174 and WO03054297.
- One or more of the microimage arrays of the present invention may be printed with inks comprising materials that respond visibly to invisible radiation.
- Luminescent materials are known to those skilled in the art to include materials having fluorescent or phosphorescent properties. It is also well known to use other materials that respond visibly to invisible radiation such as photochromic materials and thermochromic materials.
- only one of the magnified arrays might be visible in normal daylight conditions with the second magnified image becoming visible only under UV illumination.
- the two magnified arrays could appear the same colour in normal daylight conditions and different colours when viewed using a filter or when viewed under UV illumination.
