This lens utilizes atomic layer deposition coating technology and is designed with specific multiple anti-reflection coating factors to achieve an excellent coating configuration. By utilizing the sub-wavelength structure of the anti-reflection coating surface, high-quality optical lenses with multiple optical elements can achieve optimal anti-reflection effects. This addresses the severe reflection of strong light at large angles caused by optical lenses with drastically varying surface shapes, and enables curved optical lenses to achieve a uniform anti-reflection coating across the entire field of view. Consequently, when optical lens combinations are applied to optical lenses with multiple optical elements, the imaging quality of high-end optical lenses can be significantly improved.

[0076] This disclosure relates to the development of an optical lens with multiple optical elements. This lens utilizes atomic layer deposition coating technology and is designed with specific multiple anti-reflection coating factors to achieve an excellent coating configuration. By utilizing the sub-wavelength structure characteristics of the anti-reflection coating surface, high-quality optical lenses with multiple optical elements can achieve optimal anti-reflection effects. This addresses the severe reflection of strong light at large angles caused by optical lenses with drastically varying surface shapes, and enables curved optical lenses to achieve a uniform anti-reflection coating across the entire field of view. Consequently, the application of optical lens combinations in a multi-optical lens significantly improves the imaging quality of high-end optical lenses.

Furthermore, the following conditions can be met: 0nm≤|Wcc-Wcp|≤25nm; 0nm<|Wcc-Wcp|≤15nm; or 1nm≤|Wcc-Wcp|≤10nm.

[0127] The excellent-quality optical lens provided by the present disclosure must be comprehensively evaluated through parameters such as the antireflection coating factor and then the best design is made. An antireflection coating is made on the surface of a specific plastic optical lens, so that the antireflection coating has excellent uniformity, high environmental weather resistance, the best antireflection effect and good imaging quality.

[0128] Preferably, both surfaces of the optical lens have antireflection coatings, but an antireflection coating can also be made only on an appropriate surface. By applying the technology of the present disclosure to the surface with a drastic change in the optical lens surface profile, the antireflection coating made by the atomic layer deposition method has the best value, achieving a balance between cost and quality. Making an antireflection coating on an optical lens with the most appropriate refractive index can achieve the best antireflection effect.

[0129] The reflectance of the present disclosure is measured with a single optical lens or substrate, and the reflectance data at an incident angle of 0 degrees are used as the comparison benchmark.

[0130] The surface pore formation process can effectively improve the distribution of holes on the surface of an optical lens, increasing the spacing between holes on the surface of the optical lens, presenting a sponge-like pore structure, or changing the density of the pores. The pore formation effect can also change with the depth of the anti-reflective coating. For example, the outer side of the anti-reflective coating exposed to air has a larger pore structure, while the inner side has a relatively smaller pore structure. It can be clearly seen that the holes / gaps distributed on the outer side are relatively larger than the holes on the inner side. This can also be explained by the fact that the distribution density of the irregular branched structure on the outer side is sparser under the same plane, while the distribution density of the irregular branched structure on the inner side is denser under the same plane. The pores are composed of spaces between irregular nanofiber structures (Nanofiber), which have the effect of allowing air to remain or connect between the pores, and can make the outermost film layer have a gradient refractive index. The outer side and inner side of the anti-reflective coating refer to the side exposed to air in the cross-sectional view and schematic diagram, where the outer side is the side exposed to air and the inner side is the side closer to the optical lens or substrate. The surface pore formation process can be achieved by using plasma etching, chemical reaction etching, controlling the crystal grain size by time, or using high-temperature solution treatment, such as immersion in alcohol or water at a temperature above 50 degrees.

[0131] The outer layer of the anti-reflective coating disclosed herein can be made of metal oxides, metal nitrides, metal fluorides, non-metallic oxides, non-metallic nitrides, non-metallic fluorides, or ceramics. Ceramic materials primarily include oxides, nitrides, borides, and carbides, such as aluminum oxide. When the outer layer of the anti-reflective coating is made of SiO2, Nb2O5, Pa2O5, or MgF2, it can be fabricated using physical vapor deposition (PVD), dry etching with argon (Ar) ions, or wet etching with a phosphoric acid solution. This can also produce nanofiber structures of varying shapes, including columns, strips, cones, towers, petals, or irregular shapes. The thickness of the nanofiber structure is approximately 100 nm to 300 nm, and the diameter of the nanofibers is approximately 10 nm to 100 nm.

[0132] The refractive index of the high-refractive-index material of the anti-reflection coating at a wavelength of 587.6 nm is Nh, and the refractive index of the low-refractive-index material of the anti-reflection coating at a wavelength of 587.6 nm is Nl. The refractive index of the high-refractive-index material of the anti-reflection coating may be greater than 2.0, and the refractive index of the low-refractive-index material of the anti-reflection coating may be less than 1.8. For example, the anti-reflection coating material (refractive index at a wavelength of 587.6 nm) may be: MgF2 (1.3777), SiO2 (1.4585), Al2O3 (1.7682), HfO2 (1.8935), ZnO (1.9269), Sc2O3 (1.9872), AlN (2.0294), Si3N4 (2.0381), Ta2O5 (2.1306), ZrO2 (2.1588), ZnS (2.2719), Nb2O5 (2.3403), TiO2 (2.6142), or TiN (3.1307).

[0133] The first layer of coating material close to the surface of the plastic optical lens can be TiO2, AlN, Al2O3, aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) or an aluminum-containing mixture. It can enhance the adhesion between the anti-reflective coating and the optical lens, prevent the anti-reflective coating from falling off, achieve the effect of protecting the surface of the optical lens, and effectively enhance the environmental weather resistance of the optical lens.

[0134] Anti-reflection coatings are based on the principle of destructive interference. Single or multi-layer thin films can be deposited on the surface of plastic optical lenses using physical vapor deposition (PVD), such as evaporation deposition or sputtering deposition, or chemical vapor deposition (CVD), such as ultra-high vacuum chemical vapor deposition, microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition, plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition, or atomic layer deposition.

[0135] The full field of view disclosed herein is the range from the center field of view (0Field) to the maximum image height field of view (1.0Field), and the full field of view covers the optically effective area of ​​the optical lens surface.

[0136] The tangent slope of the optical lens surface is calculated when the optical axis is horizontal. The tangent slope is infinite (Infinity, INF, ∞) near the optical axis.

[0137] The optical lens may also include a diffraction element (Fresnel lens), a flat element such as an IR-cut filter, blue glass, a short-wavelength absorption element, a long-wavelength absorption element, or cover glass, a microlens disposed on the surface of the sensor or imaging surface, or a light-guiding element such as a reflector, prism, or fly-eye integrator. At least one surface of the anti-reflection element may have an anti-reflection coating. The primary materials of the different layers of the anti-reflection coating may be aluminum oxide, silicon oxide, or titanium oxide.

[0138] The optical lens may also include a planar element or a curved element, disposed within or outside the optical lens group. The surface of the planar element or curved element may have a phase subwavelength structure (MetaLens). The phase subwavelength structure may include a film layer composed of a metal oxide (such as TiO2, Al2O3), a metal nitride (such as AlN), a silicon oxide (such as SiO2), or a silicon nitride (such as SiN). A graphene film layer may be configured on the surface of the optical lens in the optical lens to achieve the same effect as the phase subwavelength structure.

[0139] Plastic optical lenses can experience significant surface shape variations due to thickness and high temperatures. The greater the number of anti-reflection coating layers, the more pronounced the temperature effect on surface accuracy. Lens correction technology effectively addresses the temperature effect of coatings on plastic optical lenses, helping to maintain the coating integrity and high precision of the plastic lens. This is a key technology for achieving high-quality imaging lenses.

[0140] Lens correction techniques can utilize moldflow analysis, curve fitting, or wavefront error methods, but are not limited to these. The moldflow analysis method uses moldflow analysis to identify the three-dimensional contour nodes of the optical lens surface where the lens shrinks along the Z-axis. This is converted into an aspheric curve and then compared with the original curve. The correction value is calculated by taking into account the material shrinkage rate and surface deformation trend of the optical lens. The curve fitting method measures the contour error of the optical lens surface, fits the curve with a function, and then applies an optimization algorithm to approximate the fitted curve to the measured points to obtain the correction value. The function can be exponential or polynomial, and the algorithm can be Gauss-Newton, simplex, or steepest descent. The wavefront error method uses interferometers to measure the wavefront error (imaging error) of the optical lens. The original design wavefront error is then used to comprehensively analyze the wavefront error generated during manufacturing and assembly. The correction value is then optimized using optical software.

[0141] Another embodiment of the present disclosure provides an imaging device comprising the aforementioned optical lens, a diffractive element, and an electronic photosensitive element. At least one surface of the diffractive element includes an anti-reflection coating made of aluminum oxide, and the electronic photosensitive element is disposed on an imaging surface of the optical lens. By applying the aluminum oxide anti-reflection coating to the diffractive element, the problem of high reflection at the inflection point of the diffractive element can be resolved.

[0142] Another embodiment of another aspect of the present disclosure provides an imaging device comprising the aforementioned optical lens, a curved surface element, and an electronic photosensitive element. At least one surface of the curved surface element includes a phase subwavelength structure, and the electronic photosensitive element is disposed on an imaging surface of the optical lens. By providing the curved surface element with the phase subwavelength structure, the number of optical lenses can be significantly reduced, effectively shortening the overall length of the optical lens, thereby achieving excellent optical lens miniaturization.

[0143] Another aspect of the present disclosure provides an electronic device, which is a mobile device and includes the aforementioned optical lens.

[0224] Wavelength and reflectivity measurement results

[0225] Table 13 below shows the reflectivity measurement results of the first comparative example and the first embodiment.

[0226]

[0227]

[0228] Table 14 below shows the reflectivity measurement results of the second embodiment and the third embodiment.

[0229]

[0230]

[0231]

[0232] Table 15 below shows the reflectivity measurement results of the sixth and seventh embodiments.

[0233]

[0234]

[0235] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , Figure 6 This is a graph showing the relationship between reflectivity and wavelength for the optical lens of the first comparative example. The optical lens of this disclosure exhibits a certain number of reflectivity troughs and peaks within the wavelength range of 400nm-700nm. The reflectivity troughs are defined as T1, T2, T3, and so on, increasing from short wavelengths to long wavelengths, relative to the center of the optical lens. The reflectivity peaks are defined as C1, C2, and so on, increasing from short wavelengths to long wavelengths, relative to the center of the optical lens.

[0236] Based on the above, we can compare the reflectivity difference between the center and the periphery (near the maximum effective diameter) of the optical lens. Figure 6It can be seen that the reflectivity difference between the center and the periphery of the first comparative example is too large, and there are no obvious and equal reflectivity peaks and reflectivity troughs, so it cannot be compared, indicating that the coating technology of the first comparative example is insufficient and the film thickness control is poor.

[0237] The reflectivity described in the present invention is the measurement data of the surface of the optical element, and the transmittance is the measurement data of the entire optical lens assembly.

[0243]

[0244] The anti-reflective coating configuration (Coating Design) is only used as an example in the second and seventh embodiments. The same coating design or a modified coating design can also be applied to the optical lenses of other embodiments. The number of anti-reflective coating layers, the material of the optical lens, and the high-refractive index and low-refractive index materials of the anti-reflective coating can be changed as needed. After evaluating the optimal configuration factors, it can be applied to different optical lenses and the most suitable optical lenses. The refractive index of the outer Al2O3 film layer gradually changes from a lower refractive index to a higher refractive index from the outside (air) to the inside (substrate). The effect of this gradient refractive index film layer is approximately equivalent to a film layer with a refractive index of approximately 1.21.

[0245] The reference wavelength for measuring the refractive index of the present invention is 510 nm or 587.6 nm.

[0249] (3) The anti-reflective coating is made by atomic layer deposition coating technology. The anti-reflective coating can include seven film layers. The materials of the film layer from the inner side to the outer side of the anti-reflective coating are Al2O3, TiO2, SiO2, TiO2, SiO2, TiO2 and SiO2 respectively, and the optical lens including the anti-reflective coating is made of a plastic material.

[0250] (4) The anti-reflective coating is made by atomic layer deposition coating technology. The anti-reflective coating can include two film layers. The materials of the film layer on the inner side and the film layer on the outer side of the anti-reflective coating are Al2O3 and MgF2 respectively, and the optical lens including the anti-reflective coating is made of a plastic material.

[0251] (5) The anti-reflective coating is made by atomic layer deposition coating technology. The anti-reflective coating can include two film layers. The materials of the film layer on the inner side and the film layer on the outer side of the anti-reflective coating are Al2O3 and SiO2 respectively, and the optical lens including the anti-reflective coating is made of a plastic material.

[0252] (6) The anti-reflective coating is made by atomic layer deposition coating technology. The anti-reflective coating can include three film layers. The materials of the film layer on the inner side and the film layer on the outer side of the anti-reflective coating are Al2O3, SiO2 and MgF2 respectively, and the optical lens including the anti-reflective coating is made of a plastic material.

[0254] Table 19 below is a comparison of the thickness of the anti-reflection coating at the center and periphery of the optical lens of the first comparative example, the second embodiment and the seventh embodiment.

[0255]

[0256] Please refer to Figure 7A and Figure 7B , Figure 7A This is a test chart of the image quality of the optical lens of the first comparative example under strong light with an incident angle of 55 degrees. Figure 7BThis is a test chart of the image quality of the optical lens of the second embodiment under strong light with an incident angle of 55 degrees. The anti-reflection coating of the second embodiment is made by atomic layer deposition coating technology. Figure 7A and Figure 7B It can be seen that although both the first comparative example and the second embodiment have oblique stripe flare, the flare intensity of the second embodiment is significantly lower than that of the first comparative example, indicating that the optical lens of the second embodiment can indeed achieve better imaging quality.

[0257] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 8A and Figure 8B , Figure 8A is a cross-sectional view at the center of an optical lens including an anti-reflective coating according to a seventh embodiment, Figure 8B FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the periphery of an optical lens including an anti-reflection coating according to the seventh embodiment. Figure 8A and Figure 8B It is obvious that the holes on the outside of the anti-reflection coating are relatively larger than those on the inside. This indicates that in the same plane, the irregular branched nanofiber structure on the outside of the anti-reflection coating is sparsely distributed, while the irregular branched nanofiber structure on the inside is densely distributed.

The first film layer is SiO2, the first film layer has a refractive index of 1.46, and the first film layer has a thickness of 100 nm. The second film layer is Al2O3, the second film layer has a graded refractive index, an equivalent refractive index of approximately 1.21, and the second film layer has a thickness of 115 nm. The equivalent refractive index of the second film layer is lower than that of the first film layer and the substrate, and the refractive index of the first film layer is lower than that of the substrate.

Figure 9A and Figure 9B It can be seen that the first comparative example has obvious stray light in the corners of the image, while the thirteenth embodiment has no obvious stray light in the corners of the image, indicating that the optical lens of the thirteenth embodiment can effectively improve the problem of corner stray light under strong light conditions at large angles.

[0269] Furthermore, please refer to Figure 10A and Figure 10B , Figure 10AThis is a test chart of the image quality of the microlens of the first comparative example. Figure 10B This is a test chart of the image quality of the microlens of the thirteenth embodiment. Figure 10A and Figure 10B It can be seen that the first comparative example has obvious petal-shaped stray light, while the thirteenth embodiment has none, which means that the optical lens of the thirteenth embodiment can significantly improve the problem of petal-shaped stray light.
