Abstract
The invention relates to a personal document comprising an integrated chip which can be read contactlessly and which comprises a laminate composed of a chip film, a substrate covering the chip film on the structure side of the chip and a covering layer covering the chip film on the rear side, wherein the chip film comprises a chip with integrated circuit, said chip being thinned to a thickness d≦50 μm, preferably d≦30 μm, particularly preferably d≦20 μm, and a polymeric carrier film, which, apart from contact connections, is applied both on the structure side and on the rear side of the chip. The chip is connected to the carrier film on both sides by in each case a coupling reagent whose molecules have a first chemically functional group, which preferably reacts with the semiconductor material of the chip surface and forms a covalent bond there, and have a second functional group, which preferably reacts with the polymer matrix of the carrier film, wherein the carrier film, the substrate and the covering layer each have compatible polymers which are miscible with one another, in particular soluble in one another, and the chip is connected to an antenna provided on the substrate
