Abstract

See full text

A security device including a transparent base layer having a surface provided with an optically variable relief microstructure; a transparent high refractive index layer on the surface of the base layer, the high refractive index layer conforming to the surface relief microstructure; and a reflective metal layer printed on the transparent high refractive index layer. The metal layer is printed in the form of a pattern. The thickness of the transparent high refractive index layer is selected so as to achieve constructive interference of light with a wavelength λ in the range 450-650 nm reflected at each surface of the high refractive index layer.
