  • the present applicant's prior international patent publication WO91/03747 discloses a pixellated diffraction grating which, when illuminated, generates a recognisable but optically variable image.
  • the diffraction grating is produced by mapping each pixel of an optically invariable form of the image to a respective pixel of the pixellated diffraction grating.
  • the pixellated diffraction gratings have become known as pixelgrams.
  • the respective diffraction grating of each grating pixel comprises a plurality of reflective or transmissive lines having a curvature which is inversely proportional to a chroma or colour value.
  • a master pixellated grating is produced by forming reflective grooves in a metallised surface by electron beam lithography. Such master gratings can then be used to produce a very large number of foils for application as security devices to currency notes, credit cards, travellers cheques and the like.
  • diffraction gratings which generate realistic text and portrait images of near photographic quality.
  • the images may be sharply defined and optically variable under most lighting conditions including very diffuse sources, whereas holograms produce very fuzzy images and lose their optical variability under overcast lighting conditions.
  • the images generated also exhibit a high degree of structural stability with respect to bending undulations of the grating surface, and are therefore suitable
  • each pixel of the grating is an individual optical diffraction grating and the pixellated diffraction grating when illuminated generates an optically variable image.
  • the pixels are arrayed in a multiplicity of groups of pixels in each of which the pixels are arranged according to a predetermined rule for the pixellated diffraction grating, whereby to produce a visually observable effect in the optically variable image generated when the pixellated diffraction grating is illuminated.
  • the invention provides a method of forming a diffraction grating, comprising producing a counterpart pixellated diffraction grating of a substantially optically invariable image wherein each pixel of the optically invariable image is mapped to at least one respective pixel of the pixellated diffraction grating, the arrangement of grating pixels being such that the pixellated diffraction grating when illuminated generates an optically variable reproduction of said optically invariable image, wherein the pixels of the pixellated diffraction grating are arrayed in a multiplicity of groups of pixels in each of which, the pixels are arranged according to a predetermined rule for the pixellated diffraction grating, whereby to produce a visually observable effect in said optically variable reproduction of the optically invariable image.
  • each group of pixels comprises two or more similar pixels.
  • Each pixel may be a selected portion of an initially generated larger grating pixel derived, for example from the original optically invariable image.
  • the visually observable effect with this embodiment is a modification eg an enhancement of the relative intensity of the positive or negative components of the images
  • SUBSTITUTE SHEET generated by the pixellated diffraction grating when illuminated.
  • the individual optical grating comprising at least one pixel in each group may be rotated with respect to the other(s), preferably by inversion through 180 °.
  • the visually observable effect in this case is the presence of two sets of images at different viewing angles.
  • the pixels of each group may comprise grating pixels derived from two or more different optically invariable images.
  • two different optically variable images may be generated at different angles of observation. It will be appreciated that such a dual image pixellated diffraction grating can be regarded as a "two-channel" system.
  • the pixels of each group may comprise different diffraction gratings which are not only relatively rotated but in which the lines are of a different curvature and/ or density so that two sets of images of distinct colour and/or shading are present at different viewing angles. These images may be otherwise similar or different.
  • image diffraction pattern in the context of this specification is meant the optical image observed by the naked eye focused on the grating when it is illuminated by an arbitrarily extended diffuse source of finite width such as a fluorescent tube.
  • diffraction grating indicates a grating of either reflective or transmissive lines.
  • a pattern is described herein as “optically variable” where it varies according to the position of observation and is “structurally stable” if its broad form at any given position of observation is not materially altered by slight distortions of the grating surface.
  • the pixels are preferably rectangular, most preferably square, of edge length less than 200 micron, most preferably 125 micron or less.
  • Figures 1 and 2 are respective photo prints of an original optically invariable
  • Figure 3 is a greatly magnified representative pixel from Figure 2;
  • Figures 4A and 4B are alternative groups of pixels of a pixellated diffraction grating according to embodiments of the present invention;
  • Figure 5 is a representative pixel group of a two-channel pixellated diffraction grating according to a further embodiment of the present invention.
  • Figure 6 is a representative pixel group of a two-colour pixellated diffraction grating according to a still further embodiment of the invention.
  • Figure 1 is first divided up into 0.125 mm square pixels and the chroma or colour value, in this case the grey level, of each pixel is assessed in turn. This process is typically carried out by exposing the image to a video camera coupled to a suitable computer system, the grey level for each pixel being stored in the computer memory.
  • each pixel is an individual optical diffraction grating of the associated pixel in the original image and also a function of the assessed grey level of that associated pixel of the original image. It will be understood that each pixel of the original image is mapped to a respective pixel of the pixellated grating.
  • Sij(x,y) The nature of Sij(x,y) is more fully explained in the aforementioned international application.
  • Figure 2 is the diffraction image at a given viewing angle generated when the pixellated grating is illuminated. This image consists of 166 x 208 pixels, each 0.125
  • FIG. 3 A magnified view of an exemplary pixel grating is shown in Figure 3.
  • This is actually a computer plot of one of the pixel gratings produced from Figure 1 and the optical effect arising from slight discontinuities in the lines is a printer artefact.
  • the lines are shallow parabolas.
  • the effect of decreasing the grey level parameter is to spread the lines apart, more at the centre than at the edges, thereby increasing the curvature of each parabola.
  • This of course has the effect of lightening the grey level of the pixel in the grating image diffraction pattern so that the overall effect is that the grating image diffraction pattern is a pixellated visually recognisable reproduction of the original image.
  • the pixel of Figure 3 is for the lightest of the 14 available shades of grey. It will be seen in Figure 3 that each curved grating line or groove is approximated by four straight line segments at different angles and connected end to end. Each straight line segment is in reality a miniature polygon in the shape of a
  • S; j (x,y) may be adjusted to select the brightness and stability of each pixel, choose the colour and orientation of each pixel, fix the distance and angle at which the diffracted image has maximum clarity and finally to choose the light sources that give maximum effect to the diffracted portrait image.
  • the size of pixel chosen determines the degree of pixel resolution in the observed diffraction image. It is found that a 60 micron edge length gives smooth image appearance, but smaller or larger pixel sizes may be appropriate. A lower limit may arise from diffraction effects between pixels.
  • groove or line curvature across a pixel determines both local image intensity, eg shading, and local optical structural stability.
  • Groove or line spacing in each pixel determines local colour properties, with non-primary colours generated by. a pixel mixing.
  • Average groove or line orientation determines movement and colour effects, and the number of distinct values of average curvature and average spacing may be viewed as defining the pixelgram palette, by analogy with the language of computer graphics.
  • a pixellated diffraction grating of the form of Figure 2 may be constructed by programming an electron beam lithography system. This process is further detailed in the aforementioned International patent application.
  • the basic system just described may be further modified by grouping the pixels in a grating in small groups of pixels in each of which the pixels are arranged according to a predetermined rule.
  • each group of pixels may be of dimensions similar to the pixels of the grating shown in Figure 2 but contain smaller component pixels according to the selected rule.
  • these component pixels may comprise segments of a larger pixel such as that of Figure 3 which would otherwise be produced by the basic method.
  • Figure 4A depicts a group of two pixels which are each similar and comprise the left half segment of an initial grating similar to Figure 3.
  • a pixellated diffraction grating comprising pixel groups of the kind shown in Figure 4A tends to exhibit a more even matching of the negative and positive components of the image.
  • a grating constructed from groups of pixels such as that shown in
  • Figure 4B causes a strong positive bias to the image so that the positive components of the image are enhanced.
  • the arrangement of Figure 4B is produced by taking the top left hand quadrant of an initial grating pixel similar to that of Figure 3 and then repeating this segment in the four corners of a pixel group of similar external square dimensions to the original pixel.
  • a pixellated diffraction grating containing groups similar to that of Figure 4B creates a second visual effect by adopting a further rule that the right hand segment pixels are inverted through 180 ° relative to the left hand segments. The result is that two separate series of positive enhanced images are viewed at different rotational positions of the grating about an axis normal to the grating.
  • Figure 5 depicts a further level of sophistication in accordance with the present invention.
  • each group of grating pixels is arranged, as before, within r SUBSTITUTE SHEET a square and contains four grating pixels in its respective quadrants.
  • Diagonally opposite quadrants contain pixels derived from a first optically invariable image, while the other pair of diagonally opposite quadrants contain pixels derived from a second optically invariable image.
  • These initial derivations are in accordance with the invention of the aforementioned International patent application.
  • a pixellated diffraction grating containing grouped pixels according to Figure 5 may therefore be viewed as a "two-channel" grating.
  • the two images may be different views of the same person
  • Figure 5 is for a two-channel pixelgram. It is thought possible that a three- channel pixelgram would still result in good resolution of the images, but that four channels would result in some degree of overlap of images, or, to reduce overlap, would necessitate a pixel group dimension which would adversely affect resolution of the individual images.
  • One example of a three-channel group which may have significant practical utility would use three pixels within each group respectivel derived from a portrait of maximum colour variation, a corporate logo and a separate pattern, the latter two being each formed in three colours only which were selected so as to have diffraction angles which did not overlap.
  • th two different images may have different line curvature and/or densities so that th images are of distinct colours and/or shading/intensity.
  • the images may be similar but of distinct colour and/or shading intensity.
  • a grou of pixels in accordance with such a rule is depicted in Figure 6: the respectiv otherwise similar images will be a yellow and a green at the optimum viewing angles and the distinct orientations of the pixels will, as before, ensure that the differentl coloured images will be viewed at quite distinct angles and will substantially no overlap.

Abstract

On décrit un réseau de diffraction pixellisé dont chaque pixel constitue lui-même un réseau de diffraction optique et qui, lorsqu'il est illuminé, produit une image à effet optique variable. Ces pixels sont disposés en une multiplicité de groupes au sein desquels ils sont placés selon une règle prédéterminée propre au réseau de diffraction pixellisé, ce qui confère un effet visible à l'image à effet optique variable engendrée lorsqu'on illumine ce réseau de diffraction pixellisé.
