SECURITY ELEMENT, VALUABLE DOCUMENT COMPRISING SUCH A SECURITY ELEMENT AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SUCH A SECURITY ELEMENT

摘要

The invention concerns a security element (1) for a security document, valuation document or the like, with:a carrier (9) having a reflective surface area (3) divided into a multitude of reflective pixels (5),where the area of each pixel (5) by at least one order of magnitude is smaller than the area of the reflective area (3),where each pixel (5) has at least one reflective facet, which is formed in a surface of the carrier,reflecting at least one reflective facet on the surface area (3) along a predetermined direction, a light directed towards a direction of reflection defined by its orientation,where the orientations of the facets of different pixels (5) over the reflective area show a essentially random variation.
