[0077] The present disclosure provides a plastic optical turning element, which includes an incident surface, an emergent surface, a reflecting surface, and a reflective optical film layer. The incident surface is configured to allow an imaging light to enter the plastic optical turning element. The emergent surface is configured to allow the imaging light to exit the plastic optical turning element. The reflecting surface is configured to turn the imaging light. The reflective optical film layer is disposed on a surface of the reflecting surface and includes a silver atomic layer, a bottom optical film, and a top optical film. The silver atomic layer is configured to reflect the imaging light entering the incident surface to the emergent surface. The bottom optical film is in direct contact with the silver atomic layer, and the bottom optical film is closer to the reflecting surface of the plastic optical turning element than the silver atomic layer. The top optical film has a refractive index lower than that of the bottom optical film, the top optical film is not in direct contact with the silver atomic layer, and the top optical film is farther from the reflecting surface of the plastic optical turning element than the silver atomic layer. The bottom optical film has a refractive index of Nb, the bottom optical film has a thickness of db, the top optical film has a refractive index of Nt, the top optical film has a thickness of dt, and the silver atomic layer has a thickness of dAg, which satisfy the following conditions: 1.4 < Nt < Nb < 2.1; 1.6 < Nb < 2.1; 1.4 < Nt < 1.58; 0.05 < db / dAg < 1.2; and 0.2 < dAg / dt < 3.5.
[0078] Specifically, the plastic optical turning element of the present disclosure is an optical element that sets a silver atomic layer on a reflecting surface made of plastic material to turn an imaging light. The bottom optical film increases the physical adhesion between the silver atomic layer and the reflecting surface made of plastic material, and the bottom optical film can maintain a high refractive index to reduce unnecessary reflection inside the plastic optical turning element and increase the image restoration degree of the imaging light.
[0079] The plastic optical turning element can further include a connecting surface and a sprue mark structure, wherein the connecting surface connects the incident surface, the emergent surface, and the reflecting surface, and the sprue mark structure is disposed on the connecting surface. By disposing the sprue mark structure on the connecting surface, the injection molding efficiency of injection molding can be increased, and by simultaneously molding the incident surface, the emergent surface, and the reflecting surface, the optical flatness and circular symmetry consistency of the incident surface, the emergent surface, and the reflecting surface are better.
[0080] The bottom optical film can be a metal oxide layer. In particular, because the metal oxide layer contains metal material, the metal oxide layer can have better bonding force between the silver atom layer and the plastic material, so the bottom optical film of the metal oxide layer has better bonding force to the metal material than the bottom optical film of the non-metal oxide. In other words, the metal oxide layer can allow the silver atom layer to have better adhesion on the plastic material. It must be pointed out that a general adhesion test method can be to use tape to cover the surface of the optical film layer, and after the tape is torn off, the surface condition of the optical film layer is checked to determine the adhesion. The number of times of taping and tearing off the tape can be increased to achieve more stringent test conditions, but it is not limited thereto. In particular, the material of the bottom optical film can be AI2O3, and the material of the top optical film can be a non-metal oxide, such as SiO2.
[0081] The plastic optical turning element can further include at least one intermediate layer, wherein the intermediate layer is disposed between the top optical film and the silver atom layer. The intermediate layer can protect the silver atom layer from oxidation and improve the acid and alkali corrosion resistance of the silver atom layer, but the effect of the intermediate layer is not limited to the above.
[0082] The intermediate layer can include a metal layer, and the metal layer does not contain silver atoms. In particular, the material of the metal layer can be Ti, Cr, Ni, etc., but it is not limited thereto. The metal layer without silver atoms can increase the surface stability of the silver atom layer, so that it is not easily affected by the external environment, and has better bonding with the silver atom layer.
[0083] The bottom optical film can be in direct contact with the reflective surface of the plastic optical turning element. In this way, the optical reflection degree of the silver atom layer can be increased to maintain a high optical reflectance. In particular, the reflection degree of silver atoms is better than that of aluminum atoms, and the setting of the bottom optical film can make the reflection effect of the silver atom layer not easily affected by the plastic material.
[0084] The thickness of the silver atom layer is dAg, which can satisfy the following condition: 75nm < dAg < 200nm. The appropriate thickness of the silver atom layer can make the reflection effect of the imaging light better, and the reflection degree of different imaging light wavelengths is more consistent. In this way, the restored image of the imaging light can be better, and the reflected image can be more detailed, realistic and soft. It must be pointed out that the silver atom layer with too thick thickness is easy to be uneven, which can make the reflected image distorted.
[0085] The thickness of the bottom optical film is db, and the thickness of the top optical film is dt, which can satisfy the following condition: 0.05 < db / dt < 1.1. The thinner bottom optical film can make the optical properties of the plastic optical turning element better. Specifically, the optical properties can be color rendering of image light, degree of restoration of image light, or detail of image light, but are not limited thereto.
[0086] The reflectivity of the reflective optical film layer has a minimum reflectivity R5459 between wavelengths 540 nm and 590 nm, which can satisfy the following condition: 94.0% < R5459 < 99.99%. Through high reflectivity in the visible light band, the authenticity of the image can be faithfully presented, the additional loss of the original light by the plastic optical turning element is reduced, and the imaging quality is improved.
[0087] The technical features of the plastic optical turning element of the present disclosure can be combined to achieve the corresponding effects.
[0088] The present disclosure provides an imaging lens module, which includes the plastic optical turning element described above and an optical imaging lens group, wherein the plastic optical turning element is arranged on one side of the object side and the image side of the optical imaging lens group. Specifically, the arrangement of the plastic optical turning element can make the imaging lens module suitable for telephoto (i.e., the full viewing angle is less than 40 degrees), thereby effectively reducing the size of the imaging lens module.
[0089] The present disclosure provides an electronic device, which includes the imaging lens module described above and an electronic photosensitive element, wherein the electronic photosensitive element is arranged on an imaging surface of the imaging lens module.
[0090] According to the above embodiments, specific examples are proposed below and are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0091] <First Embodiment>
[0092] Please refer to FIGS. 1A-1D , wherein FIG. 1A a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, FIG. 1B a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, FIG. 1A a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, FIG. 1C a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, FIG. 1A a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, FIG. 1D a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. As can be seen from FIG. 1A a perspective view of the electronic device 10 according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure is shown. As can be seen from FIGS. 1A-1D , the electronic device 10 includes an imaging lens module (not shown in the figure) and an electronic photosensitive element 180, wherein the electronic photosensitive element 180 is arranged on an imaging surface (not shown in the figure) of the imaging lens module.

The second driving mechanism includes a second driving element 141, a second magnet 142, a second rolling element 143, an elastic element 144, and a second coil 145. Specifically, the first and second driving mechanisms are used to drive the imaging lens module, which is disposed within the carrier 160. The flexible circuit board 170 is disposed on one side of the carrier 160, and the housing 150 is disposed on the other side of the carrier 160.
[0094] The imaging lens module includes a plastic optical reflex element 110 and an optical imaging lens group (not shown), wherein the plastic optical reflex element 110 is disposed on the object side of the optical imaging lens group. Specifically, the configuration of the plastic optical reflex element 110 makes the imaging lens module suitable for telephoto applications (i.e., a full angle of view of less than 40 degrees), thereby effectively reducing the size of the imaging lens module.
[0095] Depend on FIG. 1D It is understood that the optical imaging lens group includes lenses 121a, 121b, 121c, 121d and a fixing ring 123 in sequence from the object side to the image side. Lenses 121a, 121b, and 121c are disposed in a lens barrel 122 of the optical imaging lens group, and lens 121d and fixing ring 123 are disposed in the first driving member 131. The number, structure, surface shape and other optical features of the lenses can be configured according to different imaging requirements and are not limited thereto.
[0096] Please refer to FIG. 1E Its drawing is based on FIG. 1A A schematic diagram of the plastic optical switching element 110 in the first embodiment. (From...) FIGS. 1A-1E As can be seen, the plastic optical reversing element 110 includes an incident surface 111, an emitting surface 112, a reflecting surface 113, and a reflective optical film layer 114. Specifically, the incident surface 111 allows an imaging ray (not shown) to enter the plastic optical reversing element 110, the emitting surface 112 allows the imaging ray to exit the plastic optical reversing element 110, the reflecting surface 113 deflects the imaging ray, and the reflective optical film layer 114 is disposed on a surface of the reflecting surface 113. In the first embodiment, the plastic optical reversing element 110 may be a plastic lens, and the incident surface 111 may have an optical curved surface, but this is not a limitation.
[0097] The reflective optical film layer 114 includes a silver atom layer 114a, a bottom optical film layer 114b, and a top optical film layer 114c. The silver atom layer 114a is used to reflect the imaging light entering the light-in surface 111 to the light-out surface 112. The bottom optical film layer 114b is in direct contact with the silver atom layer 114a, and the bottom optical film layer 114b is closer to the reflective surface 113 of the plastic optical turning element 110 than the silver atom layer 114a. The top optical film layer 114c has a lower refractive index than the bottom optical film layer 114b, the top optical film layer 114c is not in direct contact with the silver atom layer 114a, and the top optical film layer 114c is farther away from the reflective surface 113 of the plastic optical turning element 110 than the silver atom layer 114a.
[0098] Specifically, the plastic optical turning element 110 is an optical element provided with a silver atom layer 114a on the reflective surface 113 of the plastic material to turn the imaging light. The bottom optical film layer 114b increases the physical adhesion between the silver atom layer 114a and the reflective surface 113 of the plastic material, and the bottom optical film layer 114b can maintain a high refractive index to reduce unnecessary reflection inside the plastic optical turning element 110 and increase the image restoration degree of the imaging light.
[0099] From FIG. 1B With FIG. 1E It can be seen that the plastic optical turning element 110 also includes a connecting surface 115, a sprue mark structure 116, and at least one intermediate layer 117. The connecting surface 115 connects the light-in surface 111, the light-out surface 112, and the reflective surface 113. The sprue mark structure 116 is arranged on the connecting surface 115. The intermediate layer 117 is arranged between the top optical film layer 114c and the silver atom layer 114a. By arranging the sprue mark structure 116 on the connecting surface 115, the injection molding efficiency of the injection molding can be increased. By simultaneously molding the light-in surface 111, the light-out surface 112, and the reflective surface 113, the optical flatness and circular symmetry consistency of the light-in surface 111, the light-out surface 112, and the reflective surface 113 are better. Furthermore, the intermediate layer 117 can protect the silver atom layer 114a, so that the silver atom layer 114a is not easily oxidized, and the acid and alkali corrosion resistance of the silver atom layer 114a can be improved. However, the function of the intermediate layer 117 is not limited to the above functions. In the first embodiment, the number of connecting surfaces is two, the number of sprue mark structures is one, and the number of intermediate layers 117 is two.
[0100] It must be pointed out that FIG. 1E The number of intermediate layers 117 in the above is one, but the actual number of intermediate layers 117 can be two or more, and is not limited thereto.
[0101] The bottom optical film 114b is a metal oxide layer. In particular, because the metal oxide layer contains metal material, the metal oxide layer can have better bonding force between the silver atom layer 114a and the plastic material, so the bottom optical film 114b of the metal oxide layer has better bonding force to the metal material than the bottom optical film of the non-metal oxide layer. In other words, the metal oxide layer can allow the silver atom layer 114a to have better adhesion on the plastic material. It should be noted that a general adhesion test method can be to use a tape to cover the surface of the optical film layer, and after the tape is torn off, the surface condition of the optical film layer is checked to determine the adhesion. The number of times of taping and tearing off the tape can be increased to achieve more stringent test conditions, but it is not limited thereto. In the first embodiment, the material of the bottom optical film 114b is AI2O3, and the material of the top optical film 114c is SiO2.
[0102] The intermediate layer 117 includes a metal layer, and the metal layer does not contain silver atoms. The metal layer without silver atoms can increase the surface stability of the silver atom layer, so that it is not easily affected by the external environment, and has better bonding with the silver atom layer. In particular, the material of the metal layer can be Ti, Cr, Ni, etc., but it is not limited thereto.
[0103] The bottom optical film 114b directly contacts the reflective surface 113 of the plastic optical turning element 110. In this way, the optical reflection degree of the silver atom layer 114a can be increased to maintain a high optical reflectance. In particular, the reflection degree of silver atoms is better than that of aluminum atoms, and the setting of the bottom optical film 114b can make the reflection effect of the silver atom layer 114a not easily affected by the plastic material and decreased.
[0104] The refractive index of the bottom optical film 114b is Nb, the thickness of the bottom optical film 114b is db, the refractive index of the top optical film 114c is Nt, the thickness of the top optical film 114c is dt, the refractive index of the silver atom layer 114a is NAg, and the thickness of the silver atom layer 114a is dAg. The parameters satisfy the following conditions.
[0105]
[0106] It should be noted that the refractive index of air is 1, the refractive index of the plastic optical turning element 110 is 1.64678, and the thickness of each intermediate layer 117 is less than the thickness of the silver atom layer 114a.

Specifically, the configuration of the plastic optical turning elements 210, 230 can make the imaging lens module suitable for telephoto (i.e. the full angle of view is less than 40 degrees), so as to effectively reduce the volume of the imaging lens module.
