[0041] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The step numbers in the following embodiments are only provided for the convenience of explanation and description, and the order between the steps is not limited in any way. The execution order of each step in the embodiment can be adaptively adjusted according to the understanding of those skilled in the art.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a low distortion mapping lens, which includes, from the object side to the image side, a first lens L1 with a specific negative optical power, a second lens L2 and a third lens L3 with positive optical power, a fourth lens L4, a fifth lens L5 and a sixth lens L6 with negative optical power, a seventh lens L7 and an eighth lens L8 with positive optical power, and a ninth lens L9 with negative optical power; the fourth lens L4 and the fifth lens L5 form a first cemented lens group, and the sixth lens L6 and the seventh lens L7 form a second cemented lens group.

[0043] Specifically, see Figure 1, the object side S1 of the first lens L1 is convex, and the image side S2 is concave, and the material is glass with low refractive index and high Abbe number, which shrinks the light to correct chromatic aberration; the object side S3 of the second lens L2 is convex, and the image side S4 is concave, and the material is crown glass; the object side S5 of the third lens L3 is convex, and the image side S6 is concave; the object side S7 of the fourth lens L4 is a plane, and the image side S8 is concave; the object side S9 of the fifth lens L5 is convex, and the fourth lens L4 is glued with the fifth lens L5, which is conducive to correcting chromatic aberration; the object side S10 of the sixth lens L6 is concave, and the image side S11 is convex; the object side S12 of the seventh lens L7 is convex, and the sixth lens L6 is glued with the seventh lens L7; the object side S13 of the eighth lens L8 is convex, and the image side S14 is convex; the object side S15 of the ninth lens L9 is concave, and the image side S14 is convex. The first cemented lens group and the second cemented lens group can effectively correct chromatic aberration.

[0044] The glass material used for the lens, the coating requirements, and the design of the black material mechanism inside the lens all effectively control glare suppression.

[0045] Optionally, the full field angle of the lens satisfies the following relationship:

[0046] 45°<2θ<65°

[0047] Here, 2θ represents the full field of view of the lens.

[0048] The full field of view (FOV) is an important concept in optical engineering, which determines the field of view of an optical instrument. The size of the field of view directly affects the performance and application scenarios of optical equipment. The larger the field of view, the wider the field of view, but the optical magnification will decrease accordingly. In layman's terms, when the size of the target object exceeds the field of view, part of the object will not be fully included in the lens.

[0049] Optionally, the total length of the lens and the image plane size of the lens satisfy the following relationship:

[0050] 2 <T / h<3.5

[0051] Among them, T represents the total length of the lens, and h represents the image size of the lens.

[0052] The total length of the lens refers to the distance from the first surface of the lens to the image plane, which reflects the length of the optical components inside the lens.

[0053] Optionally, the incident angle of the main light of the lens satisfies the following relationship:

[0054] 20 <CRA<26

[0055] Where CRA represents the chief ray incident angle of the lens.

[0056] The incident angle of the principal ray refers to the angle between the incident ray and the normal of the lens surface when the ray enters the lens. In optics, the incident angle is the angle between the incident ray and the normal of the incident surface, and the reflection angle is equal to the incident angle. When light enters the lens, it will be reflected and refracted on the lens surface. The smaller the incident angle, the more transmitted light energy and the less reflected light energy. Therefore, the smaller the incident angle of the principal ray of the lens, the higher the clarity of the image. In order to reduce the reflected light energy, a layer of "anti-reflection film" is usually coated on the surface of the lens, which can increase the transmitted light energy and improve the image quality.

[0057] Optionally, the optical back focal length of the lens and the total length of the lens satisfy the following relationship:

[0058] 0.12 <BFL / T<0.3

[0059] Among them, BFL represents the optical back focal length of the lens, and T represents the total length of the lens.

[0060] The optical back focal length (BFL) is defined as the distance from the last side of the lens in the optical system to the image plane. BFL does need to consider multiple factors, including the focal length of the lens, the aperture size, the design of the lens, etc. The reasonable design of BFL can ensure that the light can be correctly focused on the imaging surface, thereby improving the image quality. In addition, the adjustment of BFL can also affect the overall length and weight of the system, which is particularly important for the design of portable devices.

[0061] Optionally, a material of any one or more of the first lens to the ninth lens includes spherical glass.

[0062] Spherical glass can focus more evenly and reduce aberrations, thereby improving imaging quality; compared with flat glass, spherical glass can better correct light refraction, reduce distortion and blur, and make images clearer and more realistic.

[0063] Optionally, the refractive index and Abbe number of the first lens satisfy the following relationship:

[0064] 1.45 <N1<1.6

[0065] 63 <V1<65

[0066] Wherein, N1 represents the refractive index of the first lens, and V1 represents the Abbe number of the first lens.

[0067] The low refractive index and high Abbe number of the first lens can further narrow the light and correct chromatic aberration.

[0068] Optionally, the refractive index of the third lens satisfies the following relationship:

[0069] 1.8 <N3<2.1

[0070] Wherein, N3 represents the refractive index of the third lens.

[0071] The third lens is made of high refractive index material, which can further effectively control aberrations.

[0072] Optionally, the refractive index of the eighth lens satisfies the following relationship:

[0073] 1.85 <N8<2.05

[0074] Here, N8 represents the refractive index of the eighth lens.

[0075] The eighth lens uses a high refractive index material, which can further effectively control aberrations.

[0076] Optionally, the focal length of the lens satisfies the following relationship:

[0077] 35 <f<45

[0078] Where f is the focal length of the lens.

[0079] focal length length Field of view aperture 40mm 65mm 57° F5.6

[0080] The focal length of the lens is determined according to the actual application, and this embodiment does not make any specific restrictions. In a specific embodiment, the focal length of the lens is 40mm, the optical length is 65mm, the field of view angle is 57°, and the aperture is F5.6. The lens has a built-in aperture shutter, and the aperture shutter can be adjusted according to different ambient light to achieve a good imaging effect. In this embodiment, the pixels can reach 60 million.
