[0038] The features, principles and other aspects of this application are described in detail below.
[0039] An optical lens according to an exemplary embodiment of this application may include six lenses with optical power, namely a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens. These six lenses are arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the object side to the image side.
[0040] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may have negative optical power. The object-side surface of the first lens may be convex, and the image-side surface may be concave. This configuration of optical power and surface shape of the first lens can effectively control the head aperture of the optical lens, which is beneficial for achieving lens miniaturization design. At the same time, it can converge incident light rays with a large field of view into the optical lens as much as possible, thereby expanding the field of view of the optical lens.
[0041] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens may have negative optical power. The object-side surface of the second lens may be convex or concave, and the image-side surface may be convex or concave. For example, the object-side surface of the second lens is concave, and the image-side surface is convex; or the object-side surface of the second lens is convex, and the image-side surface is concave.
[0042] In an exemplary embodiment, the third lens may have positive or negative optical power. The object-side surface of the third lens may be convex or concave, and the image-side surface may be convex. This configuration of optical power and surface shape of the third lens facilitates the smooth transmission of light, effectively corrects spherical aberration and field curvature of the optical lens, and greatly improves the imaging performance of the optical lens.
[0043] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth lens may have positive or negative optical power. The object-side surface of the fourth lens may be convex, and the image-side surface may be convex or concave. Exemplarily, the fourth lens and the third lens may have optical powers with different positive and negative attributes. By rationally combining the fourth and third lenses with optical powers of different positive and negative attributes, this application can effectively control the direction of light, enabling smooth light transmission, effectively correcting spherical aberration and coma of the optical lens, and greatly improving the imaging performance of the optical lens.
[0044] In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth lens may have positive optical power. The object-side surface of the fifth lens may be convex, and the image-side surface may also be convex. This configuration of optical power and surface shape of the fifth lens is beneficial for suppressing astigmatism and for correcting spherical aberration and marginal aberration, thereby improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0045] In an exemplary embodiment, the sixth lens may have negative optical power. The object-side surface of the sixth lens may be concave, and the image-side surface may be convex or concave. Exemplarily, the object-side surface of the sixth lens is concave, and the image-side surface is convex; or the object-side surface of the sixth lens is concave, and the image-side surface is concave. This optical power and surface configuration of the sixth lens facilitates a smooth transition of light from the sixth lens to the imaging surface, effectively suppressing astigmatism, balancing various aberrations of the optical lens, and effectively correcting optical distortion in the off-axis field of view. This helps reduce image distortion and significantly improves the imaging performance of the optical lens.
[0046] In one exemplary embodiment of this application, the object-side surface of the second lens is concave, and the image-side surface is convex, while the object-side surface of the sixth lens is concave, and the image-side surface is convex. The combination of the concave-convex second lens and the concave-convex sixth lens effectively controls the trajectory of incident light from the optical lens, better balances various aberrations of the optical lens, and effectively corrects optical distortion, ensuring that the absolute value of optical distortion is less than or equal to 2.05%, reducing image distortion and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0047] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, the object-side surface of the second lens is convex, and the image-side surface is concave, while the object-side surface and image-side surface of the sixth lens are both concave. The combination of the convex-concave second lens and the concave-concave sixth lens effectively controls the trajectory of incident light from the optical lens, better balances spherical aberration and field curvature, and effectively corrects optical distortion, ensuring that the absolute value of optical distortion is less than or equal to 2.05%, thus reducing image distortion and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0048] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: |(R61+R62)×F6 / (R61-R62)|≤20mm, where F6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens, R61 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the sixth lens, and R62 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the sixth lens. By satisfying |(R61+R62)×F6 / (R61-R62)|≤20mm, the relationship between the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the sixth lens, the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the sixth lens, and the effective focal length of the sixth lens can be reasonably configured to effectively control the direction of light, allowing light to transition smoothly from the sixth lens to the imaging plane. This reduces the tolerance sensitivity of the sixth lens, improves the assembly yield of the lens, and by controlling the shape of the sixth lens, effectively corrects the optical distortion of the optical lens, ensuring that the absolute value of the optical distortion is less than or equal to 2.05%, reducing the degree of image distortion, and better restoring the realism of objects, thus achieving low distortion.
[0049] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: -0.48 ≤ R11 / F1 ≤ -0.23, where R11 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens, and F1 is the effective focal length of the first lens. By satisfying -0.48 ≤ R11 / F1 ≤ -0.23, the ratio of the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens to the effective focal length of the first lens can be reasonably configured to allow large-angle light rays to converge into the optical lens, effectively expanding the field of view of the optical lens.
[0050] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 3.09 ≤ (R11 + R12) / (R11 - R12) ≤ 3.81, where R11 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first lens, and R12 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the first lens. By satisfying 3.09 ≤ (R11 + R12) / (R11 - R12) ≤ 3.81, the first lens can converge more incident light rays and improve the imaging brightness of the optical lens by reasonably controlling the radii of curvature of the object-side and image-side surfaces of the first lens.
[0051] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 2.20 ≤ |F23 / (d2+d3)| ≤ 9.00, where F23 is the combined effective focal length of the second and third lenses, d2 is the center thickness of the second lens on the optical axis, and d3 is the center thickness of the third lens on the optical axis. Satisfying 2.20 ≤ |F23 / (d2+d3)| ≤ 9.00 allows for smooth light transmission by rationally configuring the ratio between the combined effective focal length of the second and third lenses and their center thicknesses, effectively correcting spherical aberration and field curvature of the optical lens, and significantly improving its imaging performance.
[0052] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: -1.49 ≤ (R31 + R32) / R22 ≤ -0.45, where R22 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens, R31 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the third lens, and R32 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the third lens. By satisfying -1.49 ≤ (R31 + R32) / R22 ≤ -0.45, the maximum light transmission can be effectively guaranteed and the illuminance of the optical lens can be improved by reasonably adjusting the radii of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens, the object-side surface of the third lens, and the image-side surface of the third lens.
[0053] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 2.65 ≤ |F4 / (R41+R42)| ≤ 5.39, where F4 is the effective focal length of the fourth lens, R41 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the fourth lens, and R42 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the fourth lens. Satisfying 2.65 ≤ |F4 / (R41+R42)| ≤ 5.39 allows for effective control of light path by rationally configuring the effective focal length of the fourth lens and the radii of curvature of its object-side and image-side surfaces, enabling smooth light transmission. This effectively corrects spherical aberration and coma in the optical lens, significantly improving its imaging performance.
[0054] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: -6.93mm -1 ≤(Vd3+Vd4) / (F3+F4)≤-2.76mm -1 Where Vd3 is the Abbe number of the third lens, Vd4 is the Abbe number of the fourth lens, F3 is the effective focal length of the third lens, and F4 is the effective focal length of the fourth lens. This satisfies -6.93mm. -1 ≤(Vd3+Vd4) / (F3+F4)≤-2.76mm -1 By properly combining the optical power and Abbe number of the third and fourth lenses, chromatic aberration in the lens can be effectively corrected and the saturation of the lens colors can be improved.
[0055] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: 0.37mm ≤ (R51 + R52) × F5 / (R51 - R52) ≤ 2.27mm, where F5 is the effective focal length of the fifth lens, R51 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the fifth lens, and R52 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the fifth lens. By satisfying 0.37mm ≤ (R51 + R52) × F5 / (R51 - R52) ≤ 2.27mm, the relationship between the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the fifth lens, the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the fifth lens, and the effective focal length of the fifth lens can be reasonably configured to effectively control the direction of light, reduce the deflection angle between the incident and outgoing light rays of the fifth lens, allow the light to enter the rear of the optical lens smoothly, reduce lens tolerance sensitivity, and improve lens yield.
[0056] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 0.40≤CT12 / CT45≤3.04, where CT12 is the air gap between the first and second lenses on the optical axis, and CT45 is the air gap between the fourth and fifth lenses on the optical axis. In this application, while meeting the lens imaging quality requirements, satisfying 0.40≤CT12 / CT45≤3.04 can be achieved by reasonably controlling the air gaps between the first and second lenses on the optical axis, as well as the air gaps between the fourth and fifth lenses on the optical axis, so as to minimize the air gap between adjacent lenses, thereby facilitating the miniaturization of the lens design.
[0057] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: -11.52 ≤ F2 / F ≤ -2.49, where F2 is the effective focal length of the second lens and F is the total effective focal length of the optical lens. More specifically, F2 and F can further satisfy: -7.5 ≤ F2 / F ≤ -2.49. Satisfying -11.52 ≤ F2 / F ≤ -2.49 allows for a more stable flow of light into the optical lens by rationally configuring the relationship between the effective focal length of the second lens and the total effective focal length of the lens. This controls the light path, helps correct various aberrations, improves the image quality of the lens, and effectively regulates the optical distortion at the edge of the field of view, keeping the distortion within a reasonable range.
[0058] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: 0.72 ≤ F5 / F ≤ 1.00, where F5 is the effective focal length of the fifth lens and F is the total effective focal length of the optical lens. Satisfying 0.72 ≤ F5 / F ≤ 1.00 allows for the suppression of astigmatism by reasonably adjusting the relationship between the effective focal length of the fifth lens and the total effective focal length of the lens. It also facilitates the correction of spherical aberration and marginal aberration, thereby improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0059] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: -1.50≤F6 / F≤-0.97, where F6 is the effective focal length of the sixth lens and F is the total effective focal length of the optical lens. Satisfying -1.50≤F6 / F≤-0.97 allows for effective correction of off-axis optical distortion by rationally configuring the relationship between the effective focal length of the sixth lens and the total effective focal length of the lens. This results in an absolute value of optical distortion less than or equal to 2.05%, significantly reducing image distortion and effectively correcting various aberrations such as spherical aberration and coma, thereby improving the lens's imaging performance.
[0060] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: 2.97 ≤ TTL / F ≤ 3.05, where TTL is the distance on the optical axis from the object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane of the optical lens, and F is the total effective focal length of the optical lens. Satisfying 2.97 ≤ TTL / F ≤ 3.05 allows the distance TTL from the object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane of the optical lens to be controlled within a reasonable range while ensuring a certain total effective focal length. This results in a smaller overall length for the optical lens, which is beneficial for lens miniaturization. For example, the distance TTL from the object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane of the optical lens can satisfy: TTL < 23 mm.
[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 0.27 ≤ BFL / TTL ≤ 0.30, where BFL is the distance on the optical axis from the image-side surface of the sixth lens to the imaging surface of the optical lens, and TTL is the distance on the optical axis from the object-side surface of the first lens to the imaging surface of the optical lens. Satisfying 0.27 ≤ BFL / TTL ≤ 0.30 allows for a more efficient improvement in the assembly yield of the optical lens by reasonably controlling the distance BFL between the image-side surface of the sixth lens and the imaging surface of the optical lens, while ensuring that the distance TTL between the object-side surface of the first lens and the imaging surface of the optical lens is constant. It also allows for more space to be reserved for the installation of other components in the optical lens, thereby increasing the design flexibility of the optical lens.
[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 2.42 ≤ CTmax / CTmin ≤ 4.03, where CTmax is the center thickness of the lens with the largest center thickness among the first to sixth lenses on the optical axis, and CTmin is the center thickness of the lens with the smallest center thickness among the first to sixth lenses on the optical axis. More specifically, CTmax and CTmin can further satisfy: 3 ≤ CTmax / CTmin ≤ 4.03. Satisfying 2.42 ≤ CTmax / CTmin ≤ 4.03 allows for more stable operation of each lens by reasonably controlling the thickness of each lens in the optical lens, thereby minimizing changes in light trajectory under high and low temperature environments and achieving heat-free operation of the lens.
[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application may further include an aperture stop, which may be located between the second lens and the third lens; or between the third lens and the fourth lens. By placing the aperture stop between the second lens and the third lens or between the third lens and the fourth lens, this application can effectively concentrate the light entering the optical lens, shorten the total length of the optical lens, reduce the maximum aperture of the optical lens, and facilitate the miniaturization design of the optical lens.
[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the second, fifth, and sixth lenses may be plastic lenses. The first, third, and fourth lenses may be glass lenses or plastic lenses. This application, by employing a hybrid combination of glass and plastic lenses, helps to reduce costs and enables the lens to operate normally in both high and low temperature environments, achieving high imaging quality within a temperature range such as -20℃ to 60℃.
[0065] In exemplary embodiments, the optical lens according to this application may further include a filter for correcting color deviation and / or a protective glass for protecting the photosensitive element located on the imaging plane. This application proposes an optical lens with characteristics such as high resolution, miniaturization, low cost, low distortion, small size, good temperature performance, and high image quality. The optical lens according to the above embodiments of this application can employ multiple lenses, such as the six lenses described above. By rationally allocating the optical power, surface shape, center thickness of each lens, and on-axis spacing between lenses, incident light can be effectively converged, the overall optical length of the imaging lens can be reduced, and the manufacturability of the imaging lens can be improved, making the optical lens more conducive to manufacturing.
[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, at least one of the object-side surface of the first lens to the image-side surface of the sixth lens is an aspherical mirror. An aspherical lens is characterized by a continuously changing curvature from the lens center to the lens periphery. Unlike a spherical lens, which has a constant curvature from the lens center to the lens periphery, an aspherical lens has better radius of curvature characteristics, offering advantages in improving distortion aberrations and astigmatism. Using an aspherical lens can eliminate aberrations occurring during imaging as much as possible, thereby improving image quality. Optionally, at least one of the object-side and image-side surfaces of at least four of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth lenses is an aspherical mirror. Optionally, both the object-side and image-side surfaces of at least four lenses are aspherical mirrors. By setting multiple lenses as aspherical lenses, this application facilitates the correction of lens distortion, ensuring that the absolute value of the lens's optical distortion is less than or equal to 2.05%.
[0067] However, those skilled in the art will understand that the number of lenses constituting the optical lens can be varied to obtain the various results and advantages described herein without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application. For example, although six lenses are described as an example in the embodiments, the optical lens is not limited to including six lenses. If desired, the optical lens may also include other numbers of lenses.
