[0030] Embodiment 1:

[0031] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the optical system of the microscope objective lens described in the embodiment of the present application.

[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides an optical system of a microscope objective lens, including a first lens group G1 with positive refractive power, a second lens group G2 with positive refractive power, and a third lens group G3 with positive or negative refractive power, which are arranged in sequence from the object side to the image side.

[0033] It should be noted that the first lens group G1 , the second lens group G2 , and the third lens group G3 are sequentially arranged from the object side to the image side to form an optical system of the microscope objective.

[0034] In the embodiment of the present application, the first lens group G1 includes at least one or more optical elements with positive refractive power, and the second lens group G2 includes at least two or more optical elements with positive refractive power, and the Abbe number of the material of the optical elements is greater than the first threshold.

[0035] It should be noted that the first threshold value can be 70. The optical element can be selected as a lens. In the present embodiment, the Abbe number of the material of the optical element is set by the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2, so that the optical system of the microscope objective has the ability to correct chromatic aberration in the full band of visible light. Among them, because the Abbe number affects the chromatic aberration correction of the optical system of the microscope objective in the full band of visible light, by including at least one or more lenses with positive refractive power in the first lens group G1, the Abbe number V of the lens material is greater than 70; in the second lens group G2, at least two or more lenses with positive refractive power, the Abbe number V of the lens material is greater than 70; the optical system of the microscope objective can work in the full band of visible light. In other embodiments, the first threshold value can also be set as required.

[0036] The present application provides an optical system of a microscope objective lens, comprising a first lens group with positive refractive power, a second lens group with positive refractive power, and a third lens group with positive or negative refractive power, which are sequentially arranged from the object side to the image side; the first lens group includes at least one or more optical elements with positive refractive power, and the second lens group includes at least two or more optical elements with positive refractive power, and the Abbe number of the material of the optical element is greater than a first threshold. The optical system of the microscope objective lens can work in the full band by setting the Abbe number of the optical element material in the first lens group and the second lens group; the optical system of the microscope objective lens has a high resolution by adopting the arrangement of the first lens group, the second lens group, and the third lens group, and realizes chromatic aberration correction of the full band of visible light, while maintaining the characteristics of small field curvature and small distortion; the technical problems of the existing microscopes, such as insufficient numerical aperture, insufficient resolution, insufficient working distance, and too small working band, are solved.

[0037] In one embodiment of the present application, the ratio of the focal length of the first lens group G1 to the focal length of the optical system is greater than the second threshold and less than the third threshold; the ratio of the focal length of the second lens group G2 to the focal length of the optical system is greater than the fourth threshold and less than the fifth threshold; the ratio of the focal length of the third lens group G3 to the focal length of the optical system is greater than the sixth threshold and less than the seventh threshold; the ratio of the length formed by the first lens group G1, the second lens group G2 and the third lens group G3 to the focal length of the optical system is greater than the eighth threshold and less than the ninth threshold.

[0038] It should be noted that the second threshold value may be 0.9, the third threshold value may be 1.2, the fourth threshold value may be 7.0, the fifth threshold value may be 15.0, the sixth threshold value may be -30, the seventh threshold value may be 40, the eighth threshold value may be 5.0, and the ninth threshold value may be 5.8. In this embodiment, in order to make the optical system of the microscope objective have a large numerical aperture, a long working distance, and a small number of lenses, the optical system of the microscope objective needs to meet the following first constraint condition, which is:

[0039] 0.9 <fG1 / f<1.2

[0040] 7.0 <fG2 / f<15.0

[0041] -30 <fG3 / f<40

[0042] 5.0 <L / f<5.8

[0043] Wherein, f is the focal length of the optical system, fG1 is the focal length of the first lens group, fG2 is the focal length of the second lens group, fG3 is the focal length of the third lens group, and L is the length formed by the first lens group G1, the second lens group G2 and the third lens group G3. L can also be understood as the total length of the optical system of the microscope objective. Among them, because fG1 affects the numerical aperture of the optical system of the microscope objective, fG2 affects the chromatic aberration of the optical system of the microscope objective, and fG3 affects the field curvature of the optical system of the microscope objective, the optical system of the microscope objective has the characteristics of large numerical aperture and long working distance through the first constraint condition defined, and the optical system of the microscope objective uses fewer lenses, thereby reducing the cost of the optical system of the microscope objective.

[0044] Figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of an optical system of a microscope objective lens according to another embodiment of the present application.

[0045] In one embodiment of the present application, the first lens group G1 includes a first optical element L1 with negative refractive power, a second optical element L2 with positive refractive power, and a third optical element L3 with positive refractive power, which are sequentially arranged from the object side to the image side; and / or, the second lens group G2 includes a fourth optical element L4 with positive refractive power and a fifth optical element L5 with negative refractive power, which are sequentially arranged from the object side to the image side; and / or, the third lens group G3 includes a sixth optical element L6 with negative refractive power and a seventh optical element L7 with positive refractive power, which are sequentially arranged from the object side to the image side.

[0046] It should be noted that the tenth threshold value may be 0.12, the eleventh threshold value may be 0.4, and the twelfth threshold value may be 0.3.

At the same time, by arranging the optical elements in the first lens group, the second lens group, and the third lens group, the microscope objective has a large aperture, high resolution, good imaging performance in a wide band, and good correction of chromatic aberration.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, the microscope objective lens limits the focal distance of the first lens group, the second lens group, and the third lens group, so that the microscope objective lens can achieve a longer working distance under the condition of a large numerical aperture, and use a smaller number of lenses, while preliminarily correcting spherical aberration, field curvature, and distortion. The microscope objective lens further corrects aberrations by limiting the intervals between the first lens group, the second lens group, and the third lens group. The microscope objective lens limits the Abbe number of the material of each optical element in the first lens group, the second lens group, and the third lens group to correct the chromatic aberration of the microscope objective lens in the full band of visible light. Thereby, the microscope objective lens can achieve a larger numerical aperture, a longer working distance, and chromatic aberration correction in the full band of visible light, while having the characteristics of good flat field, small distortion, and high resolution.
