Printed document comprising a luminescent authenticity feature
First Claim
1. Printed valuable document, with at least one authentication mark in the form of a luminescent substance based on a host lattice doped with at least one rare earth metal, which largely absorbs light in the entire visible region of the spectrum, is excitable in substantial parts of the visible region of the spectrum and is at least partially transparent at least in the wavelength range between 0.8 and 1.1 μ
- m, whereby the at least one rare earth metal emits in the wavelength range between 0.8 μ
m and 1.1 μ
m, and that the host lattice has a garnet or perovskite structure.

Abstract
The invention concerns a printed valuable document with at least one authentication mark in the form of a luminescent substance based on a host lattice doped with at least one rare earth metal. The host lattice largely absorbs light in the entire visible region of the spectrum, is excitable in substantial parts of the visible region of the spectrum, and is at least partially transparent at least in the wavelength range between 0.8 μm and 1.1 μm. The host lattice also features a garnet or perovskite structure. The rare earth metal emits light in the wavelength range between 0.8 μm and 1.1 μm.
