For purposes of clarity, illustration, and convenience, the drawings may not be drawn to scale, and the relative sizes, proportions, and depictions of elements in the drawings may be exaggerated. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0052] The following detailed description is provided to help the reader obtain a comprehensive understanding of the method, device and / or system described in this application. However, after understanding the disclosure of this application, various changes, modifications and equivalences of the method, device and / or system described in this application will be apparent. For example, the order of operations described in this application is merely an example, and except for the operations that must occur in a specific order, it is not limited to the order set forth in this application, but can make obvious changes after understanding the disclosure of this application. In addition, for greater clarity and brevity, the description of features well known in the art may be omitted.

[0053] The features described in this application can be implemented in different forms and should not be understood as being limited to the examples described in this application. Rather, the examples described in this application are provided only to illustrate some of the many possible ways to implement the methods, devices and / or systems described in this application, which will be apparent after understanding the disclosure of this application.

[0054] Throughout the specification, when an element such as a layer, a region, or a substrate is described as being “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, the element may be directly “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, or one or more other elements may be present between the element and the other element. Conversely, when an element is described as being “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element, other elements may not be present between the element and the other element.

[0055] As used in this application, the term "and / or" includes any one of the associated listed items and any combination of any two or more items.

[0056] Although the terms "first", "second" and "third" may be used in this application to describe various members, components, regions, layers or parts, these members, components, regions, layers or parts are not limited by these terms. More specifically, these terms are only used to distinguish one member, component, region, layer or part from another member, component, region, layer or part. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the examples described in this application, the first member, first component, first region, first layer or first part mentioned in these examples may also be referred to as the second member, second component, second region, second layer or second part.

[0057] Spatially relative terms such as "above", "higher", "below", and "lower" may be used in this application for descriptive convenience to describe the relationship of one element relative to another element as shown in the accompanying drawings. In addition to covering the orientations depicted in the accompanying drawings, these spatially relative terms are intended to also cover different orientations of the device in use or operation. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is flipped, an element described as being "above" or "higher" relative to another element will be "below" or "lower" relative to the other element. Therefore, depending on the spatial orientation of the device, the term "above" covers both "above" and "below" orientations. The device may also be oriented in other ways (e.g., rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative terms used in this application should be interpreted accordingly.

[0058] The terms used in this application are only used to describe various examples and are not used to limit the present disclosure. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the articles "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include plural forms as well. The words "include", "comprise" and "have" illustrate the existence of stated features, numbers, operations, components, elements and / or combinations thereof, but do not exclude the existence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, operations, components, elements and / or combinations thereof.

[0059] For ease of explanation, the thickness, size, and shape of the lenses shown in the drawings may be slightly exaggerated. In addition, the shapes of the spherical surfaces or aspherical surfaces of the lenses described in the detailed description and shown in the detailed description or drawings are merely examples. That is, the shapes of the spherical surfaces or aspherical surfaces of the lenses are not limited to the examples described in the present application.

[0060] The values ​​of the radius of curvature, thickness, distance between elements including lenses or surfaces, effective semi-aperture of lenses, focal length, and diameters, thicknesses, and lengths of various elements are expressed in millimeters (mm), while the angles are expressed in degrees. The thickness of the lens and the distance between elements including lenses or surfaces are measured along the optical axis of the optical imaging system.

[0061] The term "effective semi-aperture" as used in this application refers to the radius of the portion of the surface of a lens or other element (the object side or image side of the lens or other element) through which light actually passes. The effective semi-aperture is equal to the distance between the optical axis of the surface and the outermost point on the surface through which light actually passes, measured perpendicular to the optical axis of the surface. Therefore, the effective semi-aperture can be equal to the radius of the optical portion of the surface, or if the light does not pass through the edge portion of the optical portion of the surface, the effective semi-aperture can be less than the radius of the optical portion of the surface. The object side and image side of a lens or other element may have different effective semi-apertures.

[0062] In this application, unless otherwise stated, references to the shape of a lens surface refer to the shape of a paraxial region of the lens surface. The paraxial region of the lens surface is the central portion of the lens surface around the optical axis of the lens surface, where light rays incident on the lens surface form a small angle θ with the optical axis and the following approximations are valid: sinθ≈θ, tanθ≈θ, and cosθ≈1.

[0063] For example, the statement that the object side surface of the lens is convex means that at least the paraxial region of the object side surface of the lens is convex, and the statement that the image side surface of the lens is concave means that at least the paraxial region of the image side surface of the lens is concave. Therefore, even if the object side surface of the lens can be described as convex, the entire object side surface of the lens may not be convex, and the edge region of the object side surface of the lens may be concave. At the same time, even if the image side surface of the lens can be described as concave, the entire image side surface of the lens may not be concave, and the edge region of the image side surface of the lens may be convex.

[0064] Next, the configuration of the optical imaging system will be described.

[0065] The optical imaging system includes a plurality of lenses. For example, the optical imaging system includes a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, a seventh lens, and an eighth lens, which are arranged in numerical order from the object side of the optical imaging system toward the imaging surface of the optical imaging system along the optical axis of the optical imaging system. The first lens is the lens closest to the object (or subject) to be imaged by the optical imaging system, and the eighth lens is the lens closest to the imaging surface.

[0066] Each lens of the optical imaging system includes an optical portion and a rib. The optical portion of the lens is a portion of the lens configured to refract light and is generally formed at the central portion of the lens. The rib of the lens is an edge portion of the lens that enables the lens to be mounted in a lens barrel and the optical axis of the lens to be aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system. The rib of the lens extends radially outward from the optical portion. The optical portions of the lens are generally not in contact with each other. For example, the first lens to the eighth lens are mounted in the lens barrel so that they are spaced a predetermined distance from each other along the optical axis of the optical imaging system. The ribs of the lenses can selectively contact each other. For example, the ribs of the first lens to the fourth lens, or the ribs of the first lens to the fifth lens, or the ribs of the second lens to the fourth lens can contact each other so that the optical axes of these lenses can be easily aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system.

[0067] The optical imaging system further includes an image sensor and a filter. The image sensor forms an imaging surface and converts the light refracted by the first lens to the eighth lens into an electrical signal. The filter is disposed between the lens and the imaging surface and blocks infrared rays contained in the light refracted by the first lens to the eighth lens from being incident on the imaging surface.

[0068] The optical imaging system also includes an aperture and a spacer. The aperture is arranged in front of the first lens, or between two adjacent lenses among the first lens to the eighth lens, or between the object side and the image side of one lens among the first lens to the eighth lens to adjust the amount of light incident on the imaging surface. Each of the spacers is arranged at a corresponding position between two lenses among the first lens to the eighth lens to maintain a predetermined distance between the two lenses. In addition, the spacer can be made of a light-shielding material to block external light penetrating into the rib of the lens. There can be seven or eight spacers. For example, the first spacer is arranged between the first lens and the second lens, the second spacer is arranged between the second lens and the third lens, the third spacer is arranged between the third lens and the fourth lens, the fourth spacer is arranged between the fourth lens and the fifth lens, the fifth spacer is arranged between the fifth lens and the sixth lens, the sixth spacer is arranged between the sixth lens and the seventh lens, and the seventh spacer is arranged between the seventh lens and the eighth lens. In addition, the optical imaging system may also include an eighth spacer arranged between the seventh lens and the seventh spacer.

[0069] Next, the lens of the optical imaging system will be described.

[0070] The first lens has a refractive power. For example, the first lens may have a positive refractive power. A surface of the first lens may be convex. For example, the object side surface of the first lens may be convex. A surface of the first lens may be concave. For example, the image side surface of the first lens may be concave. The first lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the first lens may be aspherical.

[0071] The second lens has a refractive power. For example, the second lens may have a negative refractive power. A surface of the second lens may be convex. For example, the object side surface of the second lens may be convex. A surface of the second lens may be concave. For example, the image side surface of the second lens may be concave. The second lens may include an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the second lens may be aspherical.

[0072] The third lens has a refractive power. For example, the third lens may have a positive refractive power. A surface of the third lens may be convex. For example, the object-side surface of the third lens may be convex. A surface of the third lens may be concave. For example, the image-side surface of the third lens may be concave. The third lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the third lens may be aspherical.

[0073] The fourth lens has a refractive power. For example, the fourth lens may have a positive refractive power or a negative refractive power. One surface of the fourth lens may be convex. For example, the object side surface of the fourth lens may be convex. One surface of the fourth lens may be concave. For example, the image side surface of the fourth lens may be concave. The fourth lens may have at least one inflection point. The inflection point is a point at which the lens surface changes from convex to concave or from concave to convex. The number of inflection points is counted from the center of the lens to the outer edge of the optical portion of the lens. For example, at least one inflection point may be formed on either or both of the object side surface and the image side surface of the fourth lens. Therefore, at least one surface of the fourth lens may have a paraxial region and an edge region having shapes different from each other. For example, the paraxial region of the object side surface of the fourth lens may be convex, but the edge region of the object side surface of the fourth lens may be concave. The fourth lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the fourth lens may be aspherical.

[0074] The fifth lens has a refractive power. For example, the fifth lens may have a positive refractive power. A surface of the fifth lens may be concave. For example, the object-side surface of the fifth lens may be concave. A surface of the fifth lens may be convex. For example, the image-side surface of the fifth lens may be convex. The fifth lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the fifth lens may be aspherical.

[0075] The sixth lens has a refractive power. For example, the sixth lens may have a positive refractive power. One or both surfaces of the sixth lens may be convex. For example, the image side surface of the sixth lens may be convex, or both the object side surface and the image side surface of the sixth lens may be convex. One surface of the sixth lens may be concave. For example, the object side surface of the sixth lens may be concave. The sixth lens may have at least one inflection point. For example, at least one inflection point may be formed on either or both of the object side surface and the image side surface of the sixth lens. Therefore, at least one surface of the sixth lens may have a paraxial region and an edge region having shapes different from each other. For example, the paraxial region of the object side surface of the sixth lens may be concave, but the edge region of the object side surface of the sixth lens may be convex. The sixth lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the sixth lens may be aspherical.

[0076] The seventh lens has a refractive power. For example, the seventh lens may have a positive refractive power or a negative refractive power. One surface of the seventh lens may be concave. For example, the object side surface of the seventh lens may be concave. One surface of the seventh lens may be convex. For example, the image side surface of the seventh lens may be convex. The seventh lens may have at least one inflection point. For example, at least one inflection point may be formed on any one or both of the object side surface and the image side surface of the seventh lens. Therefore, at least one surface of the seventh lens may have a paraxial region and an edge region having shapes different from each other. For example, the paraxial region of the object side surface of the seventh lens may be concave, but the edge region of the object side surface of the seventh lens may be convex. The seventh lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one surface or both surfaces of the seventh lens may be aspherical.

[0077] The eighth lens has a refractive power. For example, the eighth lens may have a negative refractive power. Both surfaces of the eighth lens may be concave. For example, the object side surface and the image side surface of the eighth lens may be concave. The eighth lens may have at least one inflection point. For example, at least one inflection point may be formed on either or both of the object side surface and the image side surface of the eighth lens. Therefore, at least one surface of the eighth lens may have a paraxial region and an edge region having shapes different from each other. For example, the paraxial region of the object side surface of the eighth lens may be concave, but the edge region of the object side surface of the eighth lens may be convex. The eighth lens may have an aspherical surface. For example, one or both surfaces of the eighth lens may be aspherical.

[0078] The lens of the optical imaging system can be made of an optical material with high light transmittance. For example, the first lens to the eighth lens can be made of a plastic material. However, the material of the first lens to the eighth lens is not limited to a plastic material.

[0079] The aspherical surfaces of the first to eighth lenses can be expressed by the following Equation 1:

[0080]

[0081] In Equation 1, c is the curvature of the lens surface and is equal to the reciprocal of the radius of curvature of the lens surface at the optical axis of the lens surface. K is the conic constant, Y is the distance from a point on the aspherical surface of the lens in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis to the optical axis of the lens, A to H are aspherical constants, and Z (or sag) is the distance between a point on the aspherical surface of the lens at a distance Y from the optical axis and a tangent plane perpendicular to the optical axis that intersects the vertex of the aspherical surface of the lens. The examples disclosed in this application also include the aspherical constant J. The additional term JY 20 can be added to the right side of Equation 1 to reflect the influence of the aspherical constant J.

[0275] Fig.21 and Fig. 22 is a cross-sectional view of an optical imaging system coupled to a lens barrel.

[0276] Examples of optical imaging systems described in this application may include Fig.21 and Fig. 22 The self-aligned structure shown.

[0277] exist Fig.21 In one example shown in , the optical imaging system 100 includes a self-aligning structure, wherein optical axes of four lenses 1000 , 2000 , 3000 , and 4000 are aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100 by coupling four consecutive lenses 1000 , 2000 , 3000 , and 4000 to each other.

[0278] The first lens 1000 disposed closest to the object side of the optical imaging system 100 is disposed in contact with the inner surface of the lens barrel 200 so that the optical axis of the first lens 1000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, the second lens 2000 is coupled to the first lens 1000 so that the optical axis of the second lens 2000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, the third lens 3000 is coupled to the second lens 2000 so that the optical axis of the third lens 3000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, and the fourth lens 4000 is coupled to the third lens 3000 so that the optical axis of the fourth lens 4000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100.

[0279] although Fig.21 It is shown that the first to fourth lenses 1000 to 4000 are coupled to each other, but four consecutive lenses coupled to each other may be changed to the second to fifth lenses 2000 to 5000, or the third to sixth lenses 3000 to 6000, or the fourth to seventh lenses 4000 to 7000, or the fifth to eighth lenses 5000 to 8000.

[0280] exist Fig. 22 In another example shown in , the optical imaging system 100 includes a self-aligning structure, wherein optical axes of five lenses 1000 , 2000 , 3000 , 4000 , and 5000 are aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100 by connecting the five consecutive lenses 1000 , 2000 , 3000 , 4000 , and 5000 to each other.

[0281] The first lens 1000 disposed closest to the object side of the optical imaging system 100 is disposed in contact with the inner surface of the lens barrel 200 so that the optical axis of the first lens 1000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, the second lens 2000 is connected to the first lens 1000 so that the optical axis of the second lens 2000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, the third lens 3000 is connected to the second lens 2000 so that the optical axis of the third lens 3000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, the fourth lens 4000 is connected to the third lens 3000 so that the optical axis of the fourth lens 4000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100, and the fifth lens 5000 is connected to the fourth lens 4000 so that the optical axis of the fifth lens 5000 is aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100. The second to fifth lenses 2000 to 5000 may not contact the inner surface of the lens barrel 200 , but the sixth to eighth lenses 6000 to 8000 may contact the inner surface of the lens barrel 200 so that the optical axes of the sixth to eighth lenses 6000 to 8000 are aligned with the optical axis of the optical imaging system 100 .

[0282] although Fig. 22 It is shown that the first to fifth lenses 1000 to 5000 are coupled to each other, but the five consecutive lenses coupled to each other may be changed to the second to sixth lenses 2000 to 6000, or the third to seventh lenses 3000 to 7000, or the fourth to eighth lenses 4000 to 8000.

[0283] Fig.23 is a cross-sectional view illustrating an example of the eighth lens.

[0284] Fig.23The total outer diameter (L8TD) of the eighth lens 8000, the thickness of the flat portion of the rib of the eighth lens 8000 (L8rt), the thickness of the edge of the rib of the eighth lens 8000 (L8edgeT), and the thickness of the eighth lens 8000 at the inflection point on the image side surface of the eighth lens 8000 (Yc82T) are shown. Fig.23 An eighth lens 8000 is shown, but the total outer diameter of each of the first to seventh lenses, the thickness of the flat portion of the rib, and the thickness of the edge of the rib are defined in the same manner.

[0285] Fig.24 is a cross-sectional view showing an example of the shape of a rib portion of a lens.

[0286] Examples of the optical imaging system 100 described in the present application may include a structure for preventing scintillation and reflection.

[0287] For example, Fig.24 As shown in FIG. 1 , the ribs of the first to eighth lenses 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 7000, and 8000 of the optical imaging system 100 may be partially surface-treated to make the surface of the ribs rough. The surface treatment method may include chemical etching, physical grinding, or any other surface treatment method capable of increasing the surface roughness.

[0288] The surface treatment area EA may be formed in the entire area from the edge of the optical portion of the lens to the outer end of the rib, where light actually passes through the optical portion of the lens. Fig.24 As shown in , the non-processed area NEA including the step portions E11 and E21 may not be surface-treated, or may be surface-treated to have a roughness less than that of the surface-treated area EA. The step portions E11 and E21 are portions where the thickness of the rib suddenly changes. The width G1 of the first non-processed area NEA formed on the object side of the lens and including the first step portion E11 may be different from the width G2 of the second non-processed area NEA formed on the image side of the lens and including the second step portion E21. Fig.24 In the example shown in , G1 is greater than G2.

[0289] When viewed in the optical axis direction, the width G1 of the first non-processed area NEA includes the first step portion E11 and the second step portion E21, and when viewed in the optical axis direction, the width G2 of the second non-processed area NEA includes the second step portion E21 but does not include the first step portion E11. A distance G4 from the outer end of the rib to the second step portion E21 is smaller than a distance G3 from the outer end of the rib to the first step portion E11.

[0290] Forming the non-processed area NEA and the positions of the step portions E11 and E21 as described above can facilitate measuring the concentricity of the lens by using a test equipment. For example, for a lens having the above-mentioned shape, since the first step portion E11 and the second step portion E21 can be recognized by the test equipment, the optical axis of the lens can be accurately aligned by detecting the concentricity of the lens.

[0291] The above-described example enables miniaturization of the optical imaging system and enables aberrations to be easily corrected.
