The growing prevalence of counterfeit products around the globe poses serious threats to economic security and human health. Knowing this, a team of researchers in Asia are developing advanced anti-counterfeiting materials with physical “unclonable functions.” The team created diamond-based anti-counterfeiting labels that are unique and known in the industry as physically unclonable functions (PUFs), and have published their findings in Nature Communications.
