[0057] For a better understanding of the present application, various aspects of the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are merely descriptions of embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way. Throughout the specification, the same reference numerals refer to the same elements. The expression "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0058] It should be noted that in this specification, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used solely to distinguish one feature from another and do not limit the features. Thus, the first lens discussed below could also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens without departing from the teachings of the present invention.
[0059] In the drawings, the thickness, size, and shape of the lenses are slightly exaggerated for ease of illustration. Specifically, the shapes of the spherical and aspherical surfaces shown in the drawings are provided by way of example. That is, the shapes of the spherical and aspherical surfaces are not limited to those shown in the drawings. The drawings are for illustration only and are not drawn strictly to scale.
[0060] In this article, the paraxial region refers to the area near the optical axis. If a lens surface is convex and the location of the convex surface is undefined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region. If a lens surface is concave and the location of the concave surface is undefined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the subject is called the object-side surface of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the imaging plane is called the image-side surface of the lens.
[0061] It should also be understood that the terms "comprises," "including," "having," "includes," and / or "comprising," when used in this specification, indicate the presence of the stated features, elements, and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof. In addition, when expressions such as "at least one of..." appear after a list of listed features, they modify the entire list of features rather than modifying the individual elements in the list. In addition, when describing embodiments of the present application, "may" is used to mean "one or more embodiments of the present application." And, the term "exemplary" is intended to refer to an example or illustration.
[0062] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant technology and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly defined as such herein.
[0063] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0064] The optical lens of the embodiment of the present invention includes, along the optical axis from the object side to the imaging surface, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, an aperture, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, a seventh lens, an eighth lens and a filter.
[0065] In some embodiments, the first lens element may have negative power to reduce the angle of incident light, effectively sharing the large object-side field of view. The first lens element has a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface, which helps collect as much light from the edge of the field of view as possible and feed it into the rear optical element, achieving wide-angle light collection.
[0066] In some embodiments, the second lens element may have negative optical power, which helps smooth the transition of light, expands the field of view of the optical imaging lens, reduces the difficulty of correcting distortion and chromatic aberration in the rear lens, and improves image quality. The image side surface of the second lens element is concave, which helps increase the field of view of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0067] In some embodiments, the third lens element may have positive optical power, which helps improve the light-gathering ability of the optical lens. Both the object-side and image-side surfaces of the third lens element are convex, which helps balance various aberrations produced by the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0068] In some embodiments, the fourth lens may have positive optical power, and its object-side surface and image-side surface are both convex; this is beneficial for improving the light-converging ability of the optical lens, while balancing the aberrations of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0069] In some embodiments, the fifth lens may have positive optical power, and its object-side surface and image-side surface are both convex; this is beneficial for improving the light-converging ability of the optical lens, while balancing the aberrations of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0070] In some embodiments, the sixth lens element may have negative optical power, and both the object-side surface and the image-side surface thereof are concave; this is beneficial for increasing the field of view of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0071] In some embodiments, the seventh lens element may have negative optical power, with a convex object-side surface and a concave image-side surface; this is beneficial for increasing the field of view of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0072] In some embodiments, the eighth lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side surface being convex and its image side surface being concave; this is beneficial for suppressing the angle of the marginal field of view incident on the imaging surface, effectively transmitting more light beams to the imaging surface, and at the same time being able to balance the aberration of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0073] In some embodiments, in order to reduce the size of the optical lens, a reflecting element with zero optical power for light path folding may be provided between the third lens and the fourth lens, and the reflecting element is a prism. The surface of the prism facing the object side is the incident surface, and the surface facing the imaging surface is the exit surface, and both the incident surface and the exit surface are flat surfaces. A right-angle prism can be used for the prism. Light rays from the object side direction enter the prism through the incident surface, are reflected by the reflecting surface, and then exit through the exit surface. By setting the prism to bend the light path, the thickness of the lens can be effectively shortened.
[0074] In some embodiments, in order to protect the first lens in contact with the outside, a protective lens with optical power is provided between the first lens and the object side. The object side surface of the protective lens is convex and the image side surface is concave. By setting the protective lens, it plays a role in protecting the optical lens, can improve the anti-impact and scratch-resistant ability of the optical lens, and has almost no impact on the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0075] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle satisfy: 3.2 < IH / f < 4.0. Meeting the above range can achieve the characteristics of a large image surface and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0076] In some embodiments, the curvature radius R of the object side surface of the seventh lens 13 and the curvature radius R of the image side surface 14 satisfy: (R 13 +R 14 ) / (R 13 -R 14) ) > 2.5. Meeting the above range can increase the image height by controlling the trend of the marginal field of view light beams and reduce the off-axis aberration of the optical lens at the same time.
[0077] In some embodiments, the distance CT on the optical axis between the third lens and the fourth lens 34 and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 4.0 < CT 34 / f < 5.5. Meeting the above range is beneficial for realizing the folding structure of the optical lens and reducing the thickness of the lens.
[0078] In some embodiments, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens satisfies: FOV > 190°. Meeting the above range can achieve that the optical lens has a large field of view angle.
[0079] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f satisfy: 17.0 < TTL / f < 20.0. Meeting the above range ensures that there is sufficient space to adjust the lens structure and optimize the imaging effect.
[0080] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, the radian θ of the maximum half field angle, and the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle satisfy: 0.8 < (IH / 2) / (f×θ) < 1.1. Meeting the above range controls the distortion within a suitable range, which is beneficial to increasing the true image height.
[0081] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -4.5 < f1 / f < -3.5. Meeting the above range can make the first lens have an appropriate negative optical power, avoid over-concentration of the negative optical power, and at the same time is beneficial to increasing the field angle, facilitating the collection of edge field light into the rear optical lens as much as possible, and achieving large-angle light collection.
[0082] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -4.5 < f2 / f < -3.0. Meeting the above range can make the second lens have an appropriate negative optical power, increase the field angle, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0083] In some embodiments, the focal length f3 of the third lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 4.0 < f3 / f < 6.0. Meeting the above range can make the third lens have an appropriate positive optical power, which is beneficial to improving the light converging ability of the optical lens, and at the same time can balance various aberrations generated by the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0084] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: 3.0 < f4 / f < 4.0. Meeting the above range can make the fourth lens have an appropriate positive optical power, which is beneficial to improving the light converging ability of the optical lens, and at the same time can balance the aberrations of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0085] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: 2.0 < f5 / f < 3.5. Meeting the above range can make the fifth lens have an appropriate positive optical power, which is beneficial to improving the light converging ability of the optical lens, and at the same time can balance the aberrations of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0086] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f6 of the sixth lens satisfy: -2.5 < f6 / f < -1.5. Meeting the above range can make the sixth lens have an appropriate negative optical power, which is beneficial to increasing the field angle of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0087] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f7 of the seventh lens satisfy: f7 / f < -5.0. Meeting the above range can make the seventh lens have a negative optical power, which is beneficial to increasing the field angle of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0088] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f8 of the eighth lens satisfy: 4.0 < f8 / f < 8.5. Meeting the above range can make the eighth lens have an appropriate positive optical power, which is beneficial to suppressing the angle of the marginal field incident on the imaging surface, effectively transmitting more light beams to the imaging surface, and at the same time balancing the aberration of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0089] In some embodiments, the focal length f1 of the first lens of the optical lens and the focal length f2 of the second lens satisfy: 1.0 < f1 / f2 < 1.2. Meeting the above range can make the first lens and the second lens have an appropriate negative optical power, which helps the light to transition smoothly, expands the field angle of the optical lens, reduces the difficulty of correcting distortion and chromatic aberration of the rear lenses, and improves the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0090] In some embodiments, the sixth lens and the seventh lens can be glued together to form a glued lens, which can effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens, reduce the eccentricity sensitivity of the optical lens, balance the aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens; it can also reduce the assembly sensitivity of the optical lens, thereby reducing the processing technology difficulty of the optical lens and improving the assembly yield of the optical lens.
[0091] To make the system have better optical performance, multiple aspherical lenses are used in the lens, and the aspherical surface shapes of the optical lens satisfy the following equation:
[0092]
[0093] Where, z is the distance between the curved surface and the vertex of the curved surface in the optical axis direction, h is the distance from the optical axis to the curved surface, c is the curvature of the vertex of the curved surface, K is the conic coefficient, and A, B, C, D, E, F are the surface coefficients of the second order, fourth order, sixth order, eighth order, tenth order, and twelfth order respectively.
[0094] The protective lens adopts an aspherical surface type, and the aspherical surface shape satisfies the following equation:
[0095]
[0096] Where z is the distance between the surface and the vertex in the direction of the optical axis, h is the distance from the optical axis to the surface, c is the curvature of the surface vertex, K is the quadratic surface coefficient, and A, B, C, D, E, and F are the second-order, fourth-order, sixth-order, eighth-order, tenth-order, and twelfth-order surface coefficients, respectively.
[0097] The present invention is further illustrated below with reference to several embodiments. In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens vary; for details, please refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment. The following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Any other changes, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications that do not deviate from the novelties of the present invention shall be considered equivalent replacements and are included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0111] The object-side surface S16 and the image-side surface S17 of the filter G2 are both flat surfaces;
[0112] The imaging surface S18 is a plane.
[0113] The relevant parameters of each lens in the optical lens in Example 1 are shown in Table 1-1.

[0116] The surface parameters of the aspheric lens of the optical lens in Example 1 are shown in Table 1-2.
[0117] Table 1-2
[0118]
[0119] See Figure 2 In this embodiment, to protect the optical lens, a removable protective lens can be added between the first lens L1 and the object side. This protective lens has positive optical power, a convex object-side surface S19, and a concave image-side surface S20. Related parameters are shown in Tables 1-3.
[0120] Table 1-3
[0121]
[0122] In this embodiment, the field curvature curve, F-Theta distortion curve, relative illumination curve, MTF curve, axial aberration curve, and vertical chromatic aberration curve of the optical lens are shown as follows: Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 shown.
[0123] Figure 3 The field curvature curves for Example 1 are shown, representing the degree of curvature of light of different wavelengths in the meridional and sagittal image planes. The horizontal axis represents the offset (unit: mm), and the vertical axis represents the half field angle (unit: degrees). As can be seen from the figure, the field curvature of the meridional and sagittal image planes is controlled within a range of -0.05 to 0.02 mm, demonstrating that the optical lens is capable of effectively correcting field curvature.
[0124] Figure 4 The F-Theta distortion curve for Example 1 is shown. It represents the F-Theta distortion of light of different wavelengths at different image heights on the imaging surface. The horizontal axis represents the F-Theta distortion value (unit: %), and the vertical axis represents the half field of view (unit: °). As can be seen from the figure, the F-Theta distortion of the optical lens is controlled within 0-8%, and the image compression in the edge angle area is relatively smooth, which effectively improves the clarity of the expanded image.
[0125] Figure 5 The relative illumination curve for Example 1 is shown, representing the relative illumination values at different field angles on the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the half field angle (unit: degrees), and the vertical axis represents the relative illumination (unit: %). As can be seen from the graph, the relative illumination value of the optical lens is still greater than 40% at the maximum half field angle, indicating that the optical lens has good relative illumination.
[0126] Figure 6 The MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) curve for Example 1 is shown. It represents the degree of lens imaging modulation at different spatial frequencies across the field of view. The horizontal axis represents spatial frequency (lp / mm), and the vertical axis represents the MTF value. As can be seen from the graph, the MTF value of this example is consistently above 0.3 across the entire field of view. Within the range of 0 to 160 lp / mm, the MTF curve decreases evenly and smoothly from the center to the edge of the field of view, demonstrating excellent imaging quality and detail resolution at both low and high frequencies.
[0127] Figure 7 The following graph shows the axial aberration curve for Example 1, which represents the aberration on the optical axis at the imaging plane for each wavelength. The horizontal axis represents the axial aberration value (unit: μm), and the vertical axis represents the normalized pupil radius. As can be seen from the graph, the offset of the axial aberration is controlled within a range of -20μm to 15μm, indicating that the optical lens can effectively correct axial aberration.
[0128] Figure 8 The vertical chromatic aberration curve for Example 1 is shown. It plots the chromatic aberration of each wavelength relative to the central wavelength (0.55 μm) at different image heights on the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the vertical chromatic aberration value of each wavelength relative to the central wavelength (unit: μm), and the vertical axis represents the normalized field of view angle. As can be seen from the graph, the vertical chromatic aberration for both the longest and shortest wavelengths is controlled within a range of -3 μm to 1 μm, demonstrating that this optical lens is capable of excellently correcting chromatic aberration in the peripheral field of view and the secondary spectrum across the entire image plane.

[0141] Figure 11 The field curvature curves for Example 2 are shown, representing the degree of curvature of light of different wavelengths in the meridional and sagittal image planes. The horizontal axis represents the offset (unit: mm), and the vertical axis represents the half field angle (unit: degrees). As can be seen from the figure, the field curvature of the meridional and sagittal image planes is controlled within a range of -0.05 to 0.02 mm, demonstrating that the optical lens is capable of effectively correcting field curvature.
[0142] Figure 12The F-Theta distortion curve for Example 2 is shown. It represents the F-Theta distortion of light of different wavelengths at different image heights on the imaging surface. The horizontal axis represents the F-Theta distortion value (unit: %), and the vertical axis represents the half field of view (unit: °). As can be seen from the figure, the F-Theta distortion of the optical lens is controlled within 0-3%, and the image compression in the edge angle area is relatively smooth, which effectively improves the clarity of the expanded image.
[0143] Figure 13 The relative illumination curve for Example 2 is shown, representing the relative illumination values at different field angles on the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the half field angle (unit: degrees), and the vertical axis represents the relative illumination (unit: %). As can be seen from the graph, the relative illumination value of the optical lens is still greater than 40% at the maximum half field angle, indicating that the optical lens has good relative illumination.
[0144] Figure 14 The MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) curve for Example 2 is shown. It represents the degree of lens imaging modulation at different spatial frequencies across the field of view. The horizontal axis represents spatial frequency (lp / mm), and the vertical axis represents the MTF value. As can be seen from the graph, the MTF value of this example is consistently above 0.4 across the entire field of view. Within the range of 0 to 160 lp / mm, the MTF curve decreases evenly and smoothly from the center to the edge of the field of view, demonstrating excellent imaging quality and detail resolution at both low and high frequencies.
[0145] Figure 15 The following graph shows the axial aberration curve for Example 2, which plots the aberration along the optical axis at the imaging plane for each wavelength. The horizontal axis represents the axial aberration value (unit: μm), and the vertical axis represents the normalized pupil radius. As can be seen from the graph, the offset of the axial aberration is controlled within a range of -20 μm to 10 μm, demonstrating that the optical lens is capable of effectively correcting axial aberration.
[0146] Figure 16 The vertical chromatic aberration curve for Example 2 is shown. It plots the chromatic aberration of each wavelength relative to the central wavelength (0.55 μm) at different image heights on the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the vertical chromatic aberration value of each wavelength relative to the central wavelength (unit: μm), and the vertical axis represents the normalized field of view angle. As can be seen from the graph, the vertical chromatic aberration for both the longest and shortest wavelengths is controlled within a range of -2 μm to 1 μm, demonstrating that this optical lens is capable of excellently correcting chromatic aberration in the peripheral field of view and the secondary spectrum across the entire image plane.
