Abstract

A frangible label which includes a plurality of integrally joined layers deposited successively on a removable carrier film. One or more of the layers are electrically conductive and configured to define an electrical circuit. The label is transferrable from the carrier film onto a receiving surface and is otherwise inseparable from the carrier film without attendant disruption of the circuit. In an alternative embodiments the label includes an adhesive layer for applying the label to a substrate, such that the plurality of integrally joined layers including the electrical circuit are transferrable to the receiving surface and are otherwise inseparable from the carrier film without destruction of the electrical circuit.
