Bragg diffracting security markers |
摘要 |
A method of marking an article with a watermark that diffracts radiation according to Bragg's law is disclosed. The watermark includes a periodic array of particles fixed in a matrix. The watermark may change colors with viewing angle, disappear and reappear with viewing angle or may diffract non-visible radiation that is detectable at certain angles of detection. |

1. A method of marking an article with a radiation watermark comprising:
applying an ordered periodic array of particles to an article in a configuration that marks the article, wherein the array diffracts radiation, such that radiation is reflected from the configuration as a radiation watermark at a detectable wavelength. |
