Definitions

  • the invention relates in connection with a value and / or security document with a machine-readable security element which contains a luminescent substance, a method for reading the machine-readable security element, and a method for checking the validity of such a document.
  • a classic check of a value and / or security document comprises the reading of machine-readable security features and comparison of the security feature read out with a personal and / or machine-readable specification on the document.
  • the invention is based on the technical problem of specifying a method for reading out a security element and a method for validating a security and / or value document.
  • a security feature is used, which on the one hand does not have to be readily recognizable by the naked eye, since luminescent substances in the visible range, ie when viewed with the naked eye, have the same (emission) color.
  • incorporation of luminescent materials into conventional colorants and / or pigments will further reduce discrimination with the human eye if required.
  • value and / or security document includes in particular identity cards, passports, ID cards, access control cards, visas, tax stamps, tickets, driving licenses, motor vehicle papers, banknotes, checks, postage stamps, credit cards and adhesive labels (eg for product security).
  • a substrate of a value and / or security document is a carrier structure to which information, images and the like are applied, in particular printed. After that, the surface of the substrate can be provided with a usually transparent cover layer.
  • Suitable materials for a substrate are all customary materials based on paper and / or plastic in question.
  • machine readability means that a security feature is not or not clearly perceptible to the naked eye in order to recognize information represented by the security feature. Rather, apparatus aids are required for the detection. For the detection of the information represented or encoded by the security feature, apparatus may also be necessary.
  • luminescence refers to the emission of electromagnetic radiation, in particular in the IR, visible or UV range in the course of a relaxation of an atomic or molecular electronic system from an excited state to a ground state.
  • the previous excitation by electrical energy or an electrical potential electro energy or an electrical potential (electroluminescence), bombardment with electrons (cathodoluminescence), bombardment with photons (photoluminescence), heat (thermoluminescence) or friction (triboluminescence) take place.
  • the luminescence comprises in particular the phosphorescence as well as the (photo) fluorescence.
  • Fluorescence is a radiative deactivation of excited states, whereby the transition from the excited state to the ground state is spin-permissible.
  • the residence time in the excited state is typically about 10 ⁇ -8 s, i. the emission of fluorescence radiation ends immediately after the end of the energy input for excitation.
  • phosphorescence is a spin-forbidden deactivation of excited states via inter-combination processes. Therefore, the relaxation is weak and slow.
  • the residence time in an excited state is a few milliseconds to hours and correspondingly long the emission of the phosphorescence radiation is observed.
  • the emission wavelength of a luminescent substance is characteristic of the dye used and determined by the energy difference between the excited state and the ground state.
  • the emission wavelength is the maximum of the emission intensity in an emission spectrum.
  • a luminescent substance contains atoms, molecules or particles which are capable of luminescence.
  • a luminescent substance or ink can be created with a luminescent substance, which contains the customary further components of paints or inks, such as binders, penetrants, setting agents, biocides, surfactants, buffer substances, solvents (water and / or organic solvents), fillers, pigments , Effect pigments, anti-foaming agents, anti-settling agents, UV stabilizers, etc.
  • Suitable ink formulations for various printing processes are well known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will be luminescent agents employed in the present invention insofar as mixed in place or in addition to conventional dyes or pigments.
  • the expression of the various locations on a document refers to various areas on the surface (one of the major surfaces) of a document or the surface of a substrate of a document. Different surface areas do not overlap but at most border on each other. This means a lateral resolution.
  • a pattern designates the entirety of all pattern units on a value and / or security document, namely in their areal distribution on the surface of the document or the substrate. Pattern units are areas that are substantially uniformly coated with the same luminescent substance.
  • a string is a spatial and / or temporal sequence of individual characters with a given reading direction, for example, alphanumeric characters but also symbols and / or images.
  • An encoding matrix is a two-dimensional mapping table, from which elements of a first row are assigned to the elements of a second row.
  • strings are identical if both strings match at the beginning, in the order, and at the end; in particular, identical strings have the same number of characters.
  • a string is partially identical to another string if at least two are consecutive The following characters match one string with a substring of the other string. Otherwise, the strings may have different lengths.
  • Radiation is typically functional for exciting luminescence when the wavelength of the radiation is less than the wavelength of the luminescent radiation. However, higher wavelength radiation may be functional if the subject luminescent substance is capable of so-called up-conversion processes.
  • spatial resolution denotes that information about the arrangement of a pattern element is obtained on the document. This does not necessarily have to be done with a spatially resolving detection system. Rather, a document can also be carried out in a defined manner under a non-spatially resolving detection system, in which case a temporal sequence of the measured values can easily be converted into a location information due to the defined movement. Consequently, two-dimensionally spatially resolving detectors or one-dimensionally spatially resolving detectors (for example detector rows) can be used as detection systems, in the latter case a defined translation of the document under the detector. It is understood that the document for unambiguous association with a detector in a defined, always the same way is aligned, or is moved in a defined, always the same way with respect to the detector.

KGaA, 2002 , is referenced.
  • the security and / or security document additionally carries a second string of characters that is machine- and / or person-readable, which correlates with the first string, preferably identical or partially identical.
