[0002] In recent years, optical lens technology has been continuously developing and improving. Optical lenses are increasingly widely used in many fields including smart phones, security monitoring, car assisted driving, intelligent detection and virtual reality. Among them, in the application of the automotive field, LiDAR lenses are key components for automatic driving assistance systems to obtain external information. With the rapid development of automatic driving assistance systems, people's demand for LiDAR lenses is also increasing, and LiDAR lenses are continuously developing in the direction of high resolution and miniaturization.

[0003] In order to meet the requirements of safe driving and special installation locations, people have more special requirements for lidar lenses in autonomous driving assistance systems compared to ordinary optical lenses. For example, in order to achieve long-distance measurement, the light transmittance of the receiving lens module needs to be increased, which requires a larger light aperture and a small FNO.

[0004] However, there are still many deficiencies in existing optical lenses, which need to be improved and enhanced. For example, existing optical lenses often have low light transmission capabilities and cannot adapt to dark environments at night or on rainy days; existing optical lenses usually cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of small apertures under small FNO conditions; in addition, existing optical lenses usually also find it difficult to simultaneously meet the requirements of high resolution under small FNO conditions.

The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0060] The features, principles and other aspects of the present application are described in detail below.

[0061] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens includes, for example, four lenses having optical power, namely, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens. The four lenses may be arranged in sequence from the first side to the second side along the optical axis.

[0062] In an exemplary embodiment, the first side may be, for example, the object side, and the second side may be, for example, the image side. Accordingly, the first side surface of each lens in the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, and the fourth lens may be the object side surface of each lens, and the second side surface of each lens may be the image side surface of each lens.

[0063] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens may further include a photosensitive element disposed on the imaging surface. Optionally, the photosensitive element disposed on the imaging surface may be a charge coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS).

[0064] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens may further include a filter disposed between the fourth lens and the imaging surface. The filter may filter light having a specific wavelength.

[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may have a negative optical power. The first lens may have a concave-convex surface. The first lens has a negative optical power and may have a divergent effect on the light passing through it. Under the same field of view angle, the light emitted from the image side of the first lens can make the subsequent optical system have a larger light receiving surface; the object side of the first lens is a concave surface, which can make the collected light enter the rear optical system in a divergent form as much as possible, and effectively reduce the angle between the edge field of view light and the first side when it is incident, and improve the relative illumination of the edge of the lens as a whole; the image side of the first lens is a convex surface, which can make the light enter the rear optical system as smoothly as possible, which is beneficial to the low sensitivity of the system and the small front end diameter. The object side of the first lens is a concave surface, which can also help avoid contact and friction between the lens and other objects, and is beneficial to the protection of the lens and the film layer. In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens can use a high refractive index material, which can be beneficial to the reduction of the front end diameter and the improvement of imaging quality.

[0066] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may have a negative optical power. The first lens may have a concave-concave surface. The first lens has a negative optical power, and the object side surface is a concave surface, which can make the collected light enter the rear optical system in a divergent form as much as possible, and the image side surface is a concave surface, which can increase the curvature radius of both surfaces of the first lens as much as possible, which is beneficial to the low sensitivity, processability and small front end diameter of the system. In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens can use a high refractive index material, which can be beneficial to the reduction of the front end diameter and the improvement of imaging quality.

[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may have a negative optical power. The first lens may have a concave plane type. The first lens has a negative optical power, and the object side surface is a concave surface, which can make the collected light enter the rear optical system in a divergent form as much as possible, and the image side surface is a plane, which can improve the manufacturability of the first lens, thereby reducing costs, and is beneficial to the low sensitivity, processability and small front end diameter of the system. In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens can use a high refractive index material, which can be beneficial to the reduction of the front end diameter and the improvement of imaging quality.

[0068] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may have a negative optical power. The first lens may have a convex-concave surface. The first lens has a negative optical power and has the function of diverging light, and can disperse the central light and the edge light of each field of view. Under the same field of view angle, the light emitted from the image side of the first lens can enable the rear optical system to have a larger light receiving surface, so that the physical aperture of the aperture is expanded, and a larger amount of light is input, which is beneficial to increase the illumination of the picture; the object side of the first lens is designed to be a convex surface, which cooperates with the concave surface of the image side, so that the light emitted from the first lens is smoothly incident to the rear, which is beneficial to reduce sensitivity, and at the same time, it is beneficial for the rear optical system to correct the light aberration and achieve high resolution; the object side of the first lens is designed to be a convex surface, which is also beneficial to the sliding of water droplets in practical applications and reduces the impact on imaging.

[0069] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens may have positive optical power. The second lens may have a convex-concave type. The second lens has positive optical power and has the function of converging light. Under the same field of view angle, the light beam diverging in front can be quickly contracted and smoothly transitioned to the rear optical system, thereby achieving a small FNO and high luminous flux of the system. The object side of the second lens is set as a convex surface, so that the light emitted by the first lens converges and smoothly enters the rear optical system, which is beneficial to reducing the sensitivity of the light from the first lens to the second lens. The image side of the second lens is set as a concave surface, and the radius of curvature is large, so that the light can smoothly enter the rear optical system, so that the peripheral light can reach a higher imaging position, reducing the light energy loss caused by the excessively large angle between the main light ray of the chip and the light reaching the image plane, which is beneficial to improve the illumination of the edge field of view.

[0070] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens may have positive optical power. The second lens may have a convex-convex surface. The second lens has positive optical power and has the function of converging light. Under the same field of view, the light emitted from the image side of the first lens converges quickly and smoothly transitions to the rear optical system, while achieving a larger amount of light input, which is beneficial to increase the illumination of the picture. The object side of the second lens is set as a convex surface, so that the light emitted from the first lens converges and smoothly enters the rear optical system, which is beneficial to reduce the sensitivity of the light from the first lens to the second lens; the object side of the second lens is set as a convex surface, and with the high refractive index material, the light can show a convergence trend, appropriately weaken the divergence, and make the subsequent trend of the peripheral light stable, which is beneficial to the rapid collection of light; the image side of the second lens is set as a convex surface, which can effectively converge and collect light and reduce the diameter of the rear port.

[0071] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens may have positive optical power. The second lens may have a convex plane type. The second lens has positive optical power and has the function of converging light. Under the same field of view, the light emitted from the image side of the first lens converges quickly and smoothly transitions to the rear optical system, while achieving a larger amount of light entering, which is beneficial to increase the illumination of the picture. The object side of the second lens is set as a convex surface, so that the light emitted from the first lens converges and smoothly enters the rear optical system, which is beneficial to reduce the sensitivity of the light from the first lens to the second lens; the object side of the second lens is set as a convex surface, and with the high refractive index material, the light can show a convergence trend, appropriately weaken the divergence trend of the light passing through the first lens, so that the subsequent trend of the peripheral light is stable, which is beneficial to the rapid collection of light; the image side of the second lens is set as a plane, which can be beneficial to the assembly of lens components, and is also beneficial to reduce sensitivity and avoid introducing aberrations caused by the front light.

[0072] In an exemplary embodiment, the third lens may have a negative optical power. The third lens may have a convex-concave surface. The third lens has a negative optical power and is shaped as a convex-concave approximately concentric circle structure, which can properly diverge light, and is matched with the positive optical power of the second lens, which is conducive to the smooth entry of light into the rear optical system; the object side of the third lens is designed to be a convex surface, which can make the light converge quickly, minimize the total length of the system, and achieve miniaturization; the image side of the third lens is designed to be a concave surface, which is conducive to the smooth movement of light, and is also conducive to adjusting the optical path difference between light rays in different fields of view, which is conducive to achieving small distortion, paving the way for subsequent light rays to converge better to the image plane, and achieving high resolution.

[0073] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth lens may have positive power. The fourth lens may have a convex-concave surface. The fourth lens has positive power, which is conducive to the rapid convergence of light, and has a meniscus shape, which can enable the front large-diameter light to quickly and smoothly enter the chip surface, reduce the back focus to a certain extent, thereby reducing the total length of the system and improving the resolution of the optical system.

[0074] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth lens may have negative optical power. The fourth lens may have a convex-concave surface. The fourth lens has negative optical power and is in the shape of a meniscus (the shape is close to concentric circles). In combination with the convex-concave structure of the third lens, the front large-diameter light can be smoothly and smoothly entered into the chip surface, thereby improving the resolution of the optical system, reducing the system sensitivity, and improving the yield.

[0075] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens may further include an aperture. The aperture may be located, for example, between the first lens and the second lens. The aperture may also be located, for example, between the second lens and the third lens. Alternatively, the aperture may also be located, for example, between the third lens and the fourth lens. Reasonable setting of the position of the aperture, such as between the first lens and the second lens, or between the second lens and the third lens, may facilitate the effective and smooth transition of light entering the optical system to the rear end of the system, reduce the lens aperture at the rear end of the optical system, and reduce the assembly sensitivity of the system. However, it should be noted that the position of the aperture disclosed herein is only an example and not a limitation; in alternative embodiments, the aperture may also be set at other positions according to actual needs.

[0099] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to the present application may satisfy: -20≤F4 / F≤3, wherein F4 is the effective focal length of the fourth lens, and F is the total effective focal length of the optical lens.

[0102] In an exemplary embodiment, at least some of the lenses from the first lens to the fourth lens may be aspherical lenses. The present application does not specifically limit the number of spherical lenses and aspherical lenses, and the number of aspherical lenses may be increased when the focus is on the resolution quality. In particular, in order to improve the resolution quality of the optical system, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, and the fourth lens may all be aspherical lenses. The characteristic of an aspherical lens is that the curvature changes continuously from the center of the lens to the periphery. Unlike a spherical lens having a constant curvature from the center of the lens to the periphery, an aspherical lens has a better curvature radius characteristic, and has the advantages of improving distortion aberration and improving astigmatism aberration. After adopting an aspherical lens, the aberration occurring during imaging can be eliminated as much as possible, thereby improving the imaging quality of the lens. The provision of an aspherical lens helps to correct system aberrations and improve resolution.

[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens and the fourth lens may all be glass lenses. An optical lens made of glass can suppress the deviation of the back focus of the optical lens with temperature changes to improve the stability of the system. At the same time, the use of glass material can avoid problems such as lens imaging blur caused by high and low temperature changes in the use environment and affecting the normal use of the lens. Specifically, when focusing on temperature performance and resolution quality, the first lens to the fourth lens may all be glass aspherical lenses. In applications where temperature stability requirements are lower, the first lens to the fourth lens in the optical lens may also be made of plastic. Using plastic to make optical lenses can effectively reduce production costs. Of course, the first lens to the fourth lens in the optical lens can also be made of a combination of plastic and glass.

[0104] The optical lens according to the embodiment of the present application includes four lenses with optical power, which are first to fourth lenses arranged in sequence from the first side to the second side along the optical axis, wherein the first lens has negative optical power; the second lens has positive optical power, and its first side surface is convex; the third lens has negative optical power, its first side surface is convex, and the second side surface is concave; the fourth lens has optical power, its first side surface is convex, and the second side surface is concave; the curvature radius R5 of the first side surface of the third lens and the total effective focal length F of the optical lens satisfy the conditional formula 0<R5 / F≤5; the effective focal length F3 of the third lens and the total effective focal length F of the optical lens satisfy the conditional formula F3 / F≤-5. Through this setting of the lens, the optical focal length of the third lens can be reasonably set, which is conducive to the smooth transition of peripheral light through the third lens to the image plane, thereby improving the imaging quality; at the same time, combined with the shape of the third lens being a convex and concave meniscus (the shape is close to concentric circles), it is conducive to adjusting the optical path difference between light rays of different fields of view, which is conducive to achieving small distortion, paving the way for subsequent light rays to converge to the image plane better, and is conducive to achieving high resolution. The design of the convex surface of the first side surface can collect more light rays passing through the second lens, which is conducive to the lens achieving a small FNO and a small aperture at the rear end.

[0105] The optical lens according to the exemplary embodiment of the present application adopts a four-piece lens architecture. By reasonably setting parameters such as the lens optical power, surface shape, radius of curvature, center thickness, and air spacing between lenses on the optical axis, the optical lens can have one or more beneficial effects such as high resolution, miniaturization, small FNO, and short back focus, so that the optical lens can better meet the high requirements of automotive applications such as lidar lenses.

[0106] However, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that, without departing from the technical solution claimed in the present application, the number of lenses constituting the lens can be changed to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification. For example, although four lenses are described as an example in the embodiment, the optical lens is not limited to including four lenses. If necessary, the optical lens may also include other numbers of lenses. The following further describes a specific embodiment of the optical lens applicable to the above-mentioned embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0107] Example 1

[0108] The following reference Figure 1 An optical lens according to Example 1 of the present application is described. Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of an optical lens according to Example 1 of the present application is shown.

[0109] like Figure 1 As shown, the optical lens includes a first lens L1, a second lens L2, an aperture STO, a third lens L3 and a fourth lens L4 in sequence from the first side to the second side along the optical axis, and also includes, for example, a filter L5, a protective glass L6 and an image plane IMA located on the second side of the fourth lens L4.

[0110] The first lens L1 is a convex-concave lens with negative power, whose first side surface S1 is concave and whose second side surface S2 is convex. The second lens L2 is a convex-concave lens with positive power, whose first side surface S3 is convex and whose second side surface S4 is concave. The third lens L3 is a convex-concave lens with negative power, whose first side surface S6 is convex and whose second side surface S7 is concave. The fourth lens L4 is a convex-concave lens with positive power, whose first side surface S8 is convex and whose second side surface S9 is concave.

[0111] In this embodiment, the fourth lens L4 is an aspherical lens. The stop STO is located between the second lens L2 and the third lens L3.

[0112] In this embodiment, the filter L5 has, for example, a first side surface S10 and a second side surface S11 ; the protective glass L6 has, for example, a first side surface S12 and a second side surface S13 .

[0113] When the optical lens is used for photographing, light from the object passes through the surfaces S1 to S13 in sequence and is finally imaged on the imaging surface; when the optical lens is used for projection, light from the image source surface passes through the surfaces S13 to S1 in sequence and is finally projected onto the target object (not shown).

[0114] Table 1 shows the radius of curvature R, thickness / distance, refractive index Nd and Abbe number Vd of each lens of the optical lens of Example 1. Wherein, regarding "thickness / distance", it should be understood that the thickness / distance of the row where S1 is located is the center thickness of the first lens L1, the thickness / distance of the row where S2 is located is the air spacing distance between the first lens L1 and the second lens L2, the thickness / distance of the row where S3 is located is the center thickness of the second lens L2, the thickness / distance of the row where S4 is located is the air spacing distance between the second lens L2 and the aperture STO, and so on.

[0115] Table 1

[0116]

[0117] In this embodiment, the first side surface S8 and the second side surface S9 of the fourth lens L4 are aspherical surfaces, and the surface shape x of the aspherical lens can be defined by but not limited to the following aspherical surface formula:

[0118] (1)

[0119] Wherein, x is the distance vector height from the vertex of the aspheric surface when the aspheric surface is at a height of h along the optical axis; c is the paraxial curvature of the aspheric surface, c = 1 / R (i.e., the paraxial curvature c is the reciprocal of the curvature radius R in Table 1 above); k is the cone coefficient; Ai is the correction coefficient of the i-th order of the aspheric surface. Table 2 below gives the cone coefficient k and the high-order coefficients A4, A6, A8, A10, A12, A14 and A16 that can be used for each aspheric mirror surface S8-S9 in Example 1.

[0121]

[0122] The MTF diagram, optical point diagram and diffraction circle energy diagram of the optical lens of this embodiment are respectively as follows: Fig.21 , Fig. 22 and Fig.23 The MTF parameters of the optical lens of this embodiment at a spatial frequency of 50 lp / mm (50 lines / mm), the RMS parameters of the spot diagram at the edge of the field of view, and the diffraction circle energy parameters at 15 μm are shown in Table 43 below.

[0123] The MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) curve of an optical lens can describe the ability of the optical system to "restore" the object space on the image space. The horizontal axis of the MTF graph can be, for example, the spatial frequency. Fig.21As can be seen from Table 43, the MTF value of the optical lens of this embodiment at a spatial frequency of 50lp / mm (50 lines / mm) is 0.75, and the optical lens has a strong ability to "restore" the object space in the image space.

[0124] The optical spot diagram is a tool used to analyze the imaging quality in optical systems. For example, the distance from each point in the spot diagram to the ideal image point (usually the center of the spot diagram) can be calculated, the distances of all points are squared, the average is calculated, and finally the square root of the average is taken to obtain the RMS (Root Mean Square) value. RMS can be used to describe the size of the diffuse spot caused by the wavefront error or aberration in the optical system. The RMS radius is an important parameter for evaluating the imaging quality of the optical system, and can quantitatively reflect the actual spot size of the system. The smaller the RMS value, the smaller the image spot, the better the imaging quality of the optical system, and the smaller the aberration; the horizontal axis of the optical spot diagram can be, for example, the radius of the diffraction circle. Fig. 22 As can be seen from Table 43, in the edge field of view of the optical lens of this embodiment, the root mean square radius of the light spot on the image plane is 5.6 μm, which is a very small value and the lens has high imaging quality.

[0125] Diffraction encircled energy can be used to describe the energy distribution of a light beam in a certain area after it passes through an optical system. Specifically, it refers to the ratio of the light intensity or energy contained in a certain radius to the total intensity or total energy in the diffraction pattern of the light beam. The optical diffraction circle can be understood as a light and dark circular pattern formed on the image plane due to the diffraction phenomenon of light when an ideal point light source is imaged through a perfect circular aperture or lens. The center of this pattern is a bright spot, called an Airy Disk, and it is surrounded by a series of light and dark alternating annular diffraction patterns, called diffraction circles. The horizontal axis of the optical diffraction encircled energy distribution diagram can be the radius of the diffraction circle, and the vertical axis can represent the percentage of encircled energy. The more encircled energy corresponding to the same radius, the more concentrated the energy and the better the performance. Fig.23 As can be seen from Table 43, within a circle with a diameter of 15 μm on the image plane, the ratio of spot energy to total light energy of the optical lens of this embodiment is 97.6%. It can be seen that the optical lens of this embodiment has a high resolution and good optical performance.

[0126] Therefore, according to Fig.21 , Fig. 22 and Fig.23 As can be seen from Table 43, the optical lens provided in this embodiment can achieve good imaging quality and has good optical performance.

The fourth lens L4 is a convex-concave lens with negative power, whose first side surface S8 is convex and whose second side surface S9 is concave.

[0371] In this embodiment, the second lens L2 and the fourth lens L4 are aspherical lenses, and the stop STO is located between the third lens L3 and the fourth lens L4.

[0374] Table 39 shows the radius of curvature R, thickness / distance, refractive index Nd and Abbe number Vd of each lens of the optical lens of this embodiment. In this embodiment, the first side surface S3 and the second side surface S4 of the second lens L2, the first side surface S8 and the second side surface S9 of the fourth lens L4 are all aspherical surfaces, and Table 40 shows the conic coefficients and high-order coefficients of each aspherical mirror surface S3-S4, S8-S9 that can be used in this embodiment, wherein the surface shape of each aspherical surface can be defined by the formula (1) given in the above-mentioned embodiment 1.
