Abstract

See full text

In the method for creating color patterns for technical applications and visible for the human eye by means of diffraction gratings through light irradiation, diffraction grating arrays are produced directly on a solid body surface in a laser microstructuring process by at least one laser installation in the nanosecond range or in the pico- or femtosecond range, each diffraction grating array being composed of subareas (81) whose longitudinal dimension has a value below the resolving ability of the eye and which contain at least one pixel (81, 82, 83), a pixel being a limited diffraction grating structure for producing a spectral color. The direct application of such color-producing diffraction grating structures to a solid body surface enables a large variety of decorative and authentication possibilities ranging from embossing tools to jewellery.
