Abstract

A subminiature imaging optical system suitable for a subminiature optical device such as a mobile phone camera. An aperture stop is provided. A first lens has a positive refractive power and is convex at an object side. A second lens has a negative refractive power. A third lens has a positive refractive power. Also, a fourth lens has a negative refractive power. The optical system has a total length along an optical axis direction according to following relation 1:
1.2<TL/f<1.5 relation 1,
    • where TL is a distance from the aperture stop to an image plane, and f is an effective focal distance of an entire optical system.

Description

CLAIM OF PRIORITY[0001]This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 2006-14476 filed on Feb. 15, 2005 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]The invention relates to an imaging optical system, and more particularly, to a subminiature imaging optical system which is suitably applicable to a subminiature optical device such as a mobile phone camera.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]In general, mobile phones featured only a communicative function at an incipient stage. However, with their use broadened, various services such as photographing or image transmission or communication have been in demand, accordingly evolving the function and services thereof. Recently, the spotlight has been given to a new concept of mobile phones, so-called, camera phones or camera mobile phones integrating digital camera technology with mobile...
