A method for applying a security device (e.g., a micro-optic security thread) to a fibrous web during manufacture is provided. By way of the inventive method, the security device is preferably applied onto the fibrous web at or near a couch roll or similar tool of a paper machine when the fibrous web constitutes a sufficiently consolidated, fully formed wet web. Papers made in accordance with the inventive method, when subjected to the Circulation Simulation Test, showed minimal damage at the paper/security device interface. Moreover, the surface-applied security devices showed acceptable levels of intaglio ink adhesion, and the papers had higher cross-direction (CD) tensile strength and much less show-through on opposing sides thereof.

1. A fibrous sheet material having opposing surfaces and a recess in one opposing surface, which comprises: a fibrous sub-region disposed beneath the recess, and an immediate adjoining bulk-region disposed next to the recess and the sub-region;a surface applied security device disposed in the recess
1. A fibrous sheet material having opposing surfaces and a recess in one opposing surface, which comprises: a fibrous sub-region disposed beneath the recess, and an immediate adjoining bulk-region disposed next to the recess and the sub-region;a surface applied security device disposed in the recess; andan interface between the surface applied security device and the one opposing surface,wherein the surface applied security device has been introduced during a wet stage of a paper manufacturing process where a fibrous web was sufficiently consolidated as a fully formed wet web, wherein by introducing the security device at this wet stage of the paper manufacturing process, the security device has been adequately forced into the fibrous web to further consolidate fibers in the sub-region rather than displacing them, wherein a water level and/or a moisture level of the sufficiently consolidated fibrous web ranged from about 60% to about 90% by weight, based on a total weight of the fibrous web, when the surface applied security device was introduced. 2. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the security device has a thickness ranging from about 10 to about 75 microns. 3. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the fibrous sheet material demonstrates at least one of (a) improved durability characterized by at least one of minimal damage at the interface, or almost no hinge effect, when subjected to at least one durability test cycle, or (b) acceptable ink adhesion, or (c) improved CD tensile strength, or (d) minimal or no show-through. 4. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein an amount of fibers in the fibrous sub-region are substantially equivalent to the mount of fibers in a bulk-region disposed next to the recess and the sub-region. 5. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the security device comprises an array of cylindrical or non-cylindrical focusing elements, and an array of image icons that optically interact with the focusing elements to produce at least one synthetic image. 6. A security or value document comprising the fibrous sheet material of claim 1. 7. The security or value document of claim 6, wherein the security device is introduced such that it is in register with at least one other feature on or within the document. 8. The security or value document of claim 7, wherein the at least one other feature on or within the document is selected from the group consisting of a watermark, a printed image, a relief structure, a fiber, or another security device. 9. The security or value document of claim 6, wherein the security or value document is a passport. 10. The security or value document of claim 6, wherein the security or value document is a banknote. 11. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the fibrous sheet material is a banknote, and wherein the surface applied security device comprises an array of cylindrical and/or non-cylindrical focusing elements, and an array of image icons that optically interact with the focusing elements to produce at least one synthetic image,wherein a thickness of the fibrous sub-region is less than a thickness of a fibrous bulk-region such that a recess with a sidewall is formed in a surface of the sheet material,wherein the surface applied security device is disposed within the recess,wherein the surface applied security device has a thickness ranging from about 10 to about 40 microns and a caliper differential ranging from about 0 to about 15 microns, andwherein the security device is a stripe or patch exposed on at least one side of the banknote. 12. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the surface applied security device has a caliper differential that ranges from about −10 to about 25 microns. 13. The fibrous sheet material of claim 12, wherein the caliper differential ranges from about 0 to about 15 microns. 14. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein a density of fibers in the fibrous sub-region is greater than the density of fibers in at least the immediate adjoining bulk-region. 15. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the security device is in a form of a stripe or patch. 16. The fibrous sheet material of claim 1, wherein the security device is in register with at least one other feature on or within the fibrous sheet material. 17. The fibrous sheet material of claim 16, wherein the at least one other feature on or within the fibrous sheet material is selected from the group consisting of a watermark, a printed image, a relief structure, a fiber or set of fibers, another security device, or combinations thereof. 18. A method for a surface application of a surface applied security device to a fibrous sheet material, comprising: introducing the security device into or onto a forming fibrous web, at a point of introduction, during paper manufacturing; andwherein the fibrous web is sufficiently consolidated, at least at the point of introduction, such that a water level and/or a moisture level ranges from about 60% to about 90% by weight, based on a total weight of the fibrous web, when the surface applied security device is introduced, andwherein the security device is introduced during a wet stage of the paper manufacturing process where the fibrous web is sufficiently consolidated as a fully formed wet web, wherein by introducing the security device at this wet stage of the paper manufacturing process, the security device is adequately forced into the fibrous web to further consolidate fibers in a sub-region rather than displacing them. 19. The method of claim 18, wherein the security device is first presented as a continuous web that is then cut and placed into or onto the fibrous web. 20. The method of claim 18, further comprising: providing the security device in a form of a continuous web; andcutting or punching the continuous web in a continuous manner to form patches or stripes,wherein application of the security device comprises continuous introduction of the patches or stripes to the fibrous web such that a fibrous bulk-region, a fibrous sub-region and a negative relief having a sidewall, are formed in the fibrous web. 21. The method of claim 18, wherein the point of introduction of the security device is continuously adjusted by modulating a tension on a continuous web. 22. The method of claim 18, wherein the security device introduced into or onto the fibrous web is in a form of a stripe or patch. 23. The method of claim 18, wherein the security device is introduced such that it is in register with at least one other feature on or within the fibrous sheet material or a document comprising the fibrous sheet material. 24. The method of claim 23, wherein the at least one other feature on or within the fibrous sheet material or document is selected from the group consisting of a watermark, a printed image, a relief structure, a fiber, or another security device. 25. A fibrous sheet material or a document prepared according to the method of claim 18, wherein the fibrous sheet material comprises a surface applied security device. 26. The document of claim 25, wherein the document demonstrates at least one of (a) improved durability characterized by at least one of minimal damage at an interface, or almost no hinge effect, when subjected to at least one durability test cycle, or (b) acceptable ink adhesion, or (c) improved CD tensile strength, or (d) minimal or no show-through.
