INFORMATION CARRIER COMPRISING A NON-CLONABLE OPTICAL IDENTIFIER

摘要

The invention relates to an information carrier containing a non-clonable optical identifier (2) having an optical scattering medium (3) for being challenged by a light beam (5) and for scattering said light beam (5). In order to provide a secure information carrier (1), it is proposed that it further comprises a light absorbing means (3, 4) for reducing the intensity of said light beam (5) so that an integration time for obtaining a response signal by integrating the scattered light beam (8) is extended.
