Abstract:
The invention relates to a multi-layer body (7) having a carrier substrate (750) and having a transparent layer (720), which is arranged at least partially in a window (70) or in a transparent region of the carrier substrate (750). The transparent layer (720) comprises at least one first (71a) and one second partial region (71b) having a varying refractive index, arranged next to each other in the layer plane formed by the transparent layer (720) and at least partially in the window (7) or in the transparent region of the carrier substrate (75). Each partial region (71a, 71b) comprises a plurality of periodically arranged knots, forming an element with an optical effect and formed by refractive index variation, arranged in planes running substantially parallel to each other. The planes in the at least one first partial region (71a) are not parallel to the planes in the at least second partial region (71b). In at least one of the partial regions (71a, 71b) the planes neither run in parallel nor perpendicular to the layer plane. Thus, the incident light on the front and also on the back of the multi-layer body (7) is diffracted due to the elements with an optical effect and the elements form an optical effect that differs in the front view and in the rear view in incident light.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a multilayer body (11, 12) comprising a replicating varnish layer (22). A first relief structure (25, 125, 65) is moulded into said replicating varnish layer (22) on a plane defined by coordinate axes x and y in the first area of the multilayer body and an electroconductive constant surface-density coating (23I, 23n, 123n) is applied to the replicating varnish layer (22) in the first area of the multilayer body (11, 12) and in the second adjacent area thereof. The first relief structure (25, 125, 65) is embodied in such a way that different structural elements thereof have a high depth/width ratio, in particular >2. At least one perpendicular or near-to-perpendicular flank extends along the entire or near-to-entire depth of the relief structure, thereby reducing or removing the coating electrocunductivity.

Furthermore, the multilayer body (2) has a second layer (12) arranged beneath the first layer (13) and in a fixed position with respect to the first layer (13), the second layer having a plurality of microimages (22) which, in order to generate first optically variable information, are arranged in accordance with a microimage grid and in each case overlapping at least in areas with one of the microlenses (21) of the microlens grid. The grid widths (41, 42) of the microimage grid and the microlens grid are each less than 300 µm in at least one direction in space.
