Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to the field of optical lenses, and in particular to a microscope objective lens suitable for industrial microscopes. [Background Technology]

[0002] Microscope objectives can perform specific imaging functions using a certain field of view, focal length, and relative aperture. However, due to the limitations of optical imaging principles, these optical parameters are interdependent. Microscope objectives need to possess the characteristic of high resolution due to a large numerical aperture. However, the higher the magnification of a microscope objective and the larger its numerical aperture, the more significant the impact of thickness and refractive index changes on the microscope's imaging quality. It is usually difficult to simultaneously achieve high imaging quality and high magnification. Furthermore, with the development of technology and the increasing diversity of user needs, the requirements for system imaging quality are constantly improving, and nine-element lens structures are gradually appearing in lens designs.

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0070] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the various embodiments of this invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will understand that many technical details have been provided in the various embodiments of this invention to facilitate a better understanding of the invention. However, the technical solutions claimed in this invention can be implemented even without these technical details and with various variations and modifications based on the following embodiments.

[0071] (First Implementation)

[0072] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the present invention provides a microscope objective lens 10. Figure 1 The image shows a microscope objective 10 according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The microscope objective 10 includes nine lenses. Specifically, the microscope objective 10, from the object side to the image side, includes, in sequence: a first lens L1, a second lens L2, an aperture S1, a third lens L3, a fourth lens L4, a fifth lens L5, a sixth lens L6, a seventh lens L7, an eighth lens L8, and a ninth lens L9. An optical filter or other optical element may be disposed between the ninth lens L9 and the image plane S1.

[0073] The distance from the object side of the first lens L1 to the observed object is defined as WD, and the total optical length of the microscope objective is defined as TTL. 0.19≤WD / TTL≤0.36 specifies the ratio of the distance WD from the object side of the first lens L1 to the observed object to the total optical length TTL. Within the range of the condition, an appropriate distance between the microscope objective 10 and the observed object can be guaranteed, so that the microscope objective 10 has good operability. At the same time, it allows for reasonable space to configure the lens of the microscope objective 10 to correct aberrations.

[0074] The numerical aperture of the microscope objective 10 is defined as NA, and the focal length of the microscope objective 10 is defined as f. 4.00≤NA*f≤8.00 specifies the range of the product of the numerical aperture NA and the focal length f. Within the range of the condition, the magnification of the microscope objective 10 can be maintained, and a wider field of view can be obtained.

[0075] The equivalent focal lengths of the sixth lens L6, the seventh lens L7, and the eighth lens L8 are defined as f678, and the focal length of the ninth lens L9 is defined as f9. 7.00≤f678 / f9≤16.00 defines the ratio of the focal length of the second lens group on the object side, i.e., the equivalent focal length f678 of the sixth lens L6, the seventh lens L7, and the eighth lens L8, to the focal length f9 of the ninth lens. By reasonably allocating the optical focal length of the microscope objective 10, light can propagate smoothly, resulting in better imaging quality and lower sensitivity for the microscope objective 10.

[0076] The radius of curvature of the object side of the ninth lens L9 is defined as R17, and the radius of curvature of the image side of the ninth lens is defined as R18. -10.00≤(R17+R18) / (R17-R18)≤-1.50 defines the shape of the ninth lens L9, which can effectively control the degree of light deviation entering the microscope objective 10 and effectively reduce chromatic aberration, making the chromatic aberration |LC|≤1.0μm.

[0078] The refractive index of the second lens L2 is defined as n2, and satisfies the following relationship: n2≥2.00. This specifies the refractive index of the second lens L2 of the microscope objective 10. The front lens of the microscope objective 10 is preferably made of a high refractive index material, which is beneficial to reducing the aperture of the front lens and improving the imaging quality of the microscope objective 10.

[0079] The focal length of the third lens L3 is defined as f3, satisfying the following relationship: 3.00 ≤ f3 / f ≤ 6.00. This defines the ratio of the focal length f3 of the third lens L3 to the focal length f of the microscope objective 10. Within this condition, the degree of refraction of light entering the first lens group on the image side can be effectively controlled, and the distortion of the microscope objective 10 can be effectively controlled, ensuring that the distortion |Distortion| ≤ 0.7%, thus guaranteeing that the image remains undistorted under a large field of view. In this embodiment, the first lens L1, the second lens L2, the third lens L3, the fourth lens L4, the fifth lens L5, the sixth lens L6, the seventh lens L7, the eighth lens L8, and the ninth lens L9 are all made of glass.
