Embossing form for embossing relief structures and method of manufacturing the same

摘要

The mold has an electroplated metal layer (4) with a relief structure, and a finishing layer (3) in a region of the structure that is formed to stamp diffraction optic structures. The finishing layer is produced on a nickel master by an evaporation method. The metal layer is electroplated over the layer (3) and is removed together with the layer (3). The layer (3) is gold or chromium nitride and is coated with nano paint by spraying. Independent claims are also included for the following: (A) a method for producing a mold for stamping relief structures (B) use of the mold for stamping diffraction optic relief structures.
