Abstract:

Subject of study. In this paper, methods of topology formation of elements based on laser­induced periodic surface structures for the implementation of various visual effects and structural features in a security hologram recorded directly on the surface of AISI 430 stainless steel are studied. The purpose of the work. The process optimization of recording images based on laser­induced periodic surface structures on bulk metal for creating dynamic images for solving problems of security holography. Method. The method is based on the formation of laser­induced periodic surface structures under the action of scanning laser radiation with simultaneous rotation of the polarization of laser radiation. The recording process is implemented using nanosecond fiber laser radiation with 1.064 µm wavelength, in a 2­dimensional scanning system with a flat field objective. Main results. A technique has been developed for creating a protective hologram consisting of a set of laser prints filled with diffractive microgratings with different spatial orientations. The main factors of influence on the laser­induced periodic surface structures spatial orientation during the formation of structures with a given topology and observed visual dynamic effects based on elementary diffractive microgratings are revealed: radiation polarization and beam scanning trajectory. It is shown that the period of micro­diffraction gratings is equal to the wavelength of the acting laser radiation and is about 1 µm. Practical significance. The method proposed in this work for the elementary diffractive microgratings formation makes it possible to obtain holographic elements/images with different spatial topology, various visual and structural features which meet the requirements for modern security holograms in their main areas of application.
