Abstract:
In recent years, magnetic interference thin films have gained wide attention in optical security devices field by virtue of their gonioapparent and dynamic 3D effects. Based on the color mechanism of metal-dielectric Fabry-Perot structure, a novel seven-layer magnetic thin film structure is proposed by adopting the ultrathin metal layer as a bonding layer and a pure metallic Ni layer as a magnetic layer as well as a reflective layer. Color target optimization optimac method is utilized that realizes the seven-layer metal-dielectric optically variable magnetic thin film structure with green at the normal incidence and purple-red at 60°. The structure effectively solves the delaminate problem and simplifies the multilayer structure. Through different combined magnetic field designs, the magnetic orientation experiment of the prepared magnetic optically variable thin film is carried out, and the 3D anti-counterfeiting with remarkable dynamic color change effect is obtained, which provides a new solution for optical security devices.
