<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make an RF tag easily detectable even in the dark. <P>SOLUTION: The RF tag has an information recording function and a function allowing the information to be read with a reader device without contact, and is attached to an article. The RF tag contains a light-emitting material that emits light upon stimulated by light. The light-emitting material may be a fluorescent material that emits light only while being stimulated by light and that stops the emission as soon as stimulation by light ceases, or may be a phosphorescent material that continues to emit light for several minutes to several hours even in the absence of stimulation by light. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI |
