[0089] This disclosure provides a metal light-shielding element surrounding a central axis, comprising an outer diameter surface, a first annular surface, a second annular surface, and an anti-reflective layer. The outer diameter surface surrounds the metal light-shielding element. The first annular surface is disposed opposite the outer diameter surface and is closer to the central axis than the outer diameter surface. The second annular surface is disposed opposite the outer diameter surface and is closer to the central axis than the outer diameter surface, and the first annular surface and the second annular surface are connected. The anti-reflective layer is disposed on at least one of the first annular surface and the second annular surface, and comprises a light-absorbing layer and a nanostructure layer, wherein the nanostructure layer is disposed on the light-absorbing layer. Specifically, the nanostructure layer can guide incident light hitting the surface of the metal light-shielding element to the underlying light-absorbing layer, where the light is absorbed, giving the surface of the metal light-shielding element low reflectivity and providing high light-shielding efficiency.
[0090] The metal light-shielding element can be made of free-cutting brass or copper alloy, and can be an auxiliary light-shielding component, spacer ring, lens barrel or light-shielding plate. The auxiliary light-shielding component can be an additional component set outside the imaging lens module to cooperate with the configuration of the imaging lens module to shield the parts of the imaging lens module that are prone to stray light, but is not limited thereto.
[0091] The connection between the first and second annular surfaces forms a minimum aperture structure, which is covered by an anti-reflective layer. This minimum aperture structure can be a pointed aperture structure. Specifically, the connection between the first and second annular surfaces forms a minimum aperture structure, in which the anti-reflective layer covers the minimum aperture structure, and the minimum aperture structure surrounds a central axis to form the minimum aperture. This allows for optical applications. Specifically, the metal light-shielding element can be coated with a light-absorbing layer and a nanostructure layer on the surface of the minimum aperture structure and its surrounding area using a special process, giving the minimum aperture structure low-reflection characteristics.
[0092] The first and second toroidal surfaces form an angle α, which satisfies the following condition: 0 degrees < α ≤ 170 degrees. Additionally, it satisfies the following condition: 10 degrees ≤ α ≤ 150 degrees. When α meets the above numerical range, metal processing and manufacturing become more efficient. Furthermore, it satisfies the following condition: 20 degrees ≤ α ≤ 120 degrees. When α meets the above numerical range, it is suitable for use in optical apertures to provide higher optical quality.
[0093] The length of the first toroidal surface along the central axis is L1, and the length of the second toroidal surface along the central axis is L2, which can satisfy the following condition: 0.01mm ≤ L1 + L2 ≤ 3.00mm. By having the first and second toroidal surfaces within a specific length range along the central axis, the minimum opening structure can achieve anti-reflective effects. Furthermore, the lengths of the first and second toroidal surfaces along the central axis can be zero due to the angles of metal machining, i.e., L1 and L2 can be zero.
[0094] The nanostructure layer can contain multiple nanostructure units, forming a nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer. The height of each nanostructure unit is h, which satisfies the following condition: 90nm ≤ h ≤ 350nm. By setting nanostructure units with an optically compatible height range, light can more easily enter the light-absorbing layer. This provides a method for depositing nanostructure units into internal pores, achieving rapid and easily mass-producible feasibility. Furthermore, when viewed in cross-section, the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer exhibits a shape wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, like a mountain ridge, thereby causing the equivalent refractive index to gradually decrease from the bottom to the top of the nanostructure layer, reducing reflected light. Specifically, the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer can be made of alumina, but is not limited to this. Additionally, it can satisfy the following condition: 90nm ≤ h ≤ 290nm. When h meets the above numerical range, a more stable nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer can be obtained, which is less prone to peeling or breakage.
[0095] The light-absorbing layer can be a carbon black material layer. This can improve the light absorption rate and provide uniformity to the mold layer.
[0096] The nanostructure layer may include a connecting layer disposed between the light-absorbing layer and the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer. Furthermore, there is no gap between the top of the connecting layer and the bottom of the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer; that is, the connecting layer and the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer are tightly bonded. This allows the nanostructure layer to possess strong structural stability. Specifically, the connecting layer may be made of silica, but is not limited to this material.
[0097] The minimum aperture structure may have at least one constricted aperture structure, with the constricted aperture structure being closer to the central axis than the maximum outer diameter of the minimum aperture structure. Furthermore, the pointed aperture structure may have a constricted aperture structure, wherein the constricted aperture structure is closer to the central axis than the maximum outer diameter of the pointed aperture structure. Through the light-shielding design of the constricted aperture structure, the probability of stray light generation by the pointed aperture structure can be reduced.
[0098] The metal light-shielding element may further include a groove structure, wherein the groove structure is disposed on at least one of the first annular surface and the second annular surface, the groove structure is recessed towards the outer diameter surface, and at least a portion of the anti-reflective layer is disposed on the groove structure. This forms a light trap structure to reduce the probability of stray light generation.
[0099] The thickness of the bonding layer is d, which can satisfy the following condition: 30nm≤d≤500nm. By setting the bonding layer within a specific thickness range, the deposition yield of the nanoridge protrusion structure layer can be improved, and the light absorption layer can be protected from scratches.
[0100] The length of the first annular surface along the central axis is L1, and the length of the second annular surface along the central axis is L2. These two lengths must satisfy the following condition: 0.03 ≤ L1 / L2 ≤ 5. When L1 / L2 meets the above numerical range, the proportion of the minimum opening structure of the metal light-shielding element that directly irradiates a strong light source can be reduced, while maintaining manufacturing feasibility.
[0101] The various technical features of the metal light-shielding element disclosed above can be combined and configured to achieve the corresponding effects.
[0102] This disclosure provides an imaging lens module, which includes an imaging lens group and at least one of the aforementioned metal light-shielding elements. The metal light-shielding element is disposed corresponding to the imaging lens group. Specifically, the metal light-shielding element may be disposed on the object side of the imaging lens group, on the image side of the imaging lens group, or between any two imaging lenses in the imaging lens group.
[0103] This disclosure provides an electronic device comprising the aforementioned imaging lens module and an electronic photosensitive element. The electronic photosensitive element is disposed on an imaging surface of the imaging lens module.
[0104] Based on the above implementation methods, specific embodiments are presented below and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 1C Drawing according to Figure 1A A schematic diagram of the imaging lens module 10 in the first embodiment. Figure 1D Drawing according to Figure 1A An exploded view of the imaging lens module 10 in the first embodiment. Figures 1A to 1D It is known that the imaging lens module 10 includes an imaging lens group 11, a metal light-shielding element 12, a lens barrel 13 and a protective glass 14. The metal light-shielding element 12 is correspondingly arranged with the imaging lens group 11 and is disposed on the object side of the imaging lens group 11. The lens barrel 13 is used to accommodate the imaging lens group 11, and the protective glass 14 is disposed on the object side of the metal light-shielding element 12.
[0107] Furthermore, the metal light-shielding element 12 is disposed on the outer surface of the lens barrel 13 to facilitate assembly and quickly achieve the effect of light shielding. Specifically, the metal light-shielding element 12 is an auxiliary light-shielding component, which can be an additional component disposed outside the imaging lens module 10 to cooperate with the configuration of the imaging lens module 10 to shield the parts of the imaging lens module 10 that are prone to stray light, but is not limited thereto.
[0108] Please refer to Figures 1E to 1G ,in Figure 1E Drawing according to Figure 1D Scanning electron microscope image of the anti-reflection layer 140 in the first embodiment. Figure 1F Drawing according to Figure 1D Scanning electron microscope image of the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer 145 in the first embodiment. Figure 1G Drawing according to Figure 1A A schematic diagram of the metal light-shielding element 12 in the first embodiment. (From...) Figures 1B to 1G It is known that the metal light-shielding element 12 surrounds a central axis O and includes an outer diameter surface 110, a first annular surface 120, a second annular surface 130, and an anti-reflective layer 140. The outer diameter surface 110 surrounds the metal light-shielding element 12. Specifically, the first annular surface 120 is disposed relative to the outer diameter surface 110, and the first annular surface 120 is closer to the central axis O than the outer diameter surface 110; the second annular surface 130 is disposed relative to the outer diameter surface 110, and the second annular surface 130 is closer to the central axis O than the outer diameter surface 110, and the first annular surface 120 and the second annular surface 130 are connected to form a minimum opening structure (not shown in the figure), wherein the minimum opening structure is a pointed opening structure to provide optical applications; an anti-reflective layer 140 is disposed on the first annular surface 120 and the second annular surface 130, and covers the minimum opening structure, and includes a light-absorbing layer 141 and a nanostructure layer 142, wherein the nanostructure layer 142 is disposed on the light-absorbing layer 141. Specifically, the connection between the first annular surface 120 and the second annular surface 130 is the minimum opening structure, wherein the anti-reflective layer 140 covers the minimum opening structure, and the minimum opening structure surrounds the central axis O to form the minimum opening 131. It must be noted that... Figure 1G Two magnified views at different magnifications are shown to clearly observe the structural details of the metal light-shielding element 12, and Figure 1B , Figure 1C and Figure 1G The dashed line in the middle indicates the area within which the anti-reflective layer 140 is installed.
[0109] Depend on Figure 1BIt is understood that the metal light-shielding element 12 is specially processed to prevent the generation of non-imaging light rays L around the outer periphery of the imaging lens group 11. Specifically, the metal light-shielding element 12 is coated with a light-absorbing layer 141 and a nanostructure layer 142 on its minimum opening structure and the surface surrounding the minimum opening structure through a special process to prevent the generation of additional non-imaging light rays L. The nanostructure layer 142 can guide the incident light hitting the surface of the metal light-shielding element 12 to the underlying light-absorbing layer 141, where the light is absorbed, giving both the surface of the metal light-shielding element 12 and the minimum opening structure low reflectivity, providing high light-shielding efficiency. Furthermore, the light-absorbing layer 141 is a carbon black material layer to improve the light absorption rate and provide uniformity of the layer, while the material of the metal light-shielding element 12 can be free-machining brass or copper alloy, but is not limited to these.
[0110] Depend on Figures 1E to 1G As can be seen, the nanostructure layer 142 comprises multiple nanostructure units 143, 143a, 143b, 143c and a connecting layer 144, wherein the nanostructure units 143, 143a, 143b, 143c form a nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer 145, and the connecting layer 144 is disposed between the light-absorbing layer 141 and the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer 145. This provides a method for depositing nanostructure units 143, 143a, 143b, 143c into internal pores, achieving rapid and easily mass-producible feasibility. Furthermore, there is no gap between the top of the connecting layer 144 and the bottom of the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer 145, meaning the connecting layer 144 and the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer 145 are tightly bonded, thereby obtaining a nanostructure layer 142 with strong structural stability. In detail, the nano-ridge protrusion structure layer 145 may be made of alumina and the connecting layer 144 may be made of silicon dioxide, but are not limited thereto.
[0111] Depend on Figure 1E As can be seen, when viewed in cross-section, the nanoridge-like protrusion structure layer 145 exhibits a shape that is wider at the bottom and narrower at the top, resembling a mountain ridge. This allows the equivalent refractive index to gradually decrease from the bottom to the top of the nanostructure layer 142, thereby reducing the generation of reflected light. Furthermore, the height of each nanostructure unit 143a, 143b, and 143c is h, where the height h of nanostructure unit 143a is 143.6 nm, the height h of nanostructure unit 143b is 143.1 nm, and the height h of nanostructure unit 143c is 131.5 nm.
[0112] Depend on Figure 1G It can be seen that the first annular surface 120 and the second annular surface 130 form an angle α; the thickness of the connecting layer 144 is d; the height of each nanostructure unit 143 is h; the length of the first annular surface 120 along the central axis O is L1, and the length of the second annular surface 130 along the central axis O is L2. The parameters satisfy the conditions in Table 1A below.
