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.
[0042] It should be noted that in this specification, the expressions of first, second, third, etc. are only used to distinguish one feature from another feature, and do not represent any limitation on the features. Therefore, without departing from the teaching of the present invention, the first lens discussed below may also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens.
[0043] In the drawings, the thickness, size and shape of the lenses have been slightly exaggerated for ease of explanation. Specifically, the shapes of the spherical or aspherical surfaces shown in the drawings are shown by way of example. That is, the shapes of the spherical or aspherical surfaces are not limited to the shapes of the spherical or aspherical surfaces shown in the drawings. The drawings are only examples and are not drawn strictly to scale.
[0044] In this article, the paraxial region refers to the region near the optical axis. If the lens surface is convex and the position of the convex surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region; if the lens surface is concave and the position of the concave surface is not defined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the object is called the object side of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the imaging plane is called the image side of the lens.
[0045] 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 exclude 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 listed 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.
[0046] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical terms and scientific terms) used in this article have the same meaning as commonly understood by ordinary technicians in the field to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as terms defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having the same meaning as their meaning in the context of the relevant technology, and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless explicitly defined in this article.
[0047] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present 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.
[0048] The optical lens provided by the embodiment of the present invention comprises eight lenses in total, which are, in order from the object side to the imaging surface along the optical axis, a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, a seventh lens and an eighth lens.
[0049] In some embodiments, the first lens may have a negative optical power, and its object side surface is convex, and its image side surface is concave. The second lens may have a negative optical power, and its object side surface is concave, and its image side surface is convex. The third lens may have a positive optical power, and its object side surface and image side surface are both convex. The fourth lens may have a negative optical power, and its object side surface is concave, and its image side surface may be concave or convex. The fifth lens may have a positive optical power, and its object side surface may be concave or convex, and its image side surface is convex. The sixth lens may have a positive optical power, and its object side surface and image side surface are both convex. The seventh lens may have a negative optical power, and its object side surface and image side surface are both concave. The eighth lens may have a positive optical power, and its object side surface is convex, and its image side surface is concave.
[0050] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include an aperture, which may be located between the fourth lens and the fifth lens. It is understandable that the aperture is used to limit the amount of light entering to change the brightness of the image. In addition, when the aperture is located between the fourth lens and the fifth lens, the aperture can reasonably distribute the effects of the first lens to the eighth lens. For example, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, and the fourth lens can be used to receive light to a greater extent, and the fifth lens to the eighth lens can be used to correct the aberration, which is beneficial to balance the structure of the entire optical system. In addition, when the aperture is located between the fourth lens and the fifth lens, it is convenient to correct the aperture aberration.
[0051] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter, which is disposed between the eighth lens and the imaging surface. The filter is used to filter out interference light to prevent the interference light from reaching the imaging surface of the optical lens and affecting normal imaging.
[0052] 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 difficulty of the optical lens and improving the assembly yield of the optical lens.
[0053] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R8 of the image side of the fourth lens and the radius of curvature R9 of the object side of the fifth lens satisfy: 1.3 < (R8 - R9) / (R8 + R9) < 32. By satisfying the above range and controlling the radii of curvature of the lenses before and after the aperture, the stray light of the optical lens can be effectively controlled, the formation of ghost images can be reduced, and the imaging quality of the optical lens can be improved. More specifically, 1.33 < (R8 - R9) / (R8 + R9) < 31.86.
[0054] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 8 < TTL / f < 10. By satisfying the above range, the length of the lens can be effectively limited, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the optical lens. More specifically, 8.1 < TTL / f < 9.96.
[0055] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens satisfy: 3.5 < TTL / IH < 4.4. By satisfying the above range, when the total length of the lens is the same, a larger image plane can be ensured, which can match a larger-sized imaging chip to achieve high-definition imaging, and better achieve the balance between the small total length and the large image plane of the lens. More specifically, 3.58 < TTL / IH < 4.37.
[0056] In some embodiments, the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the f-number Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 84° < FOV / Fno < 89°. By satisfying the above range, the optical lens is limited to have a suitable field of view angle and f-number, and can collect light at large angles and obtain good imaging quality. More specifically, 84.2° < FOV / Fno < 88.25°.
[0057] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the optical lens satisfy: 3.5 < IH / EPD < 4.5. By satisfying the above range, the width of the light beam incident on the optical lens can be increased, so that the brightness at the image plane of the optical lens can be improved and vignetting can be avoided. More specifically, 3.65 < IH / EPD < 4.45.
[0058] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2 < IH / f < 2.5. Meeting the above range and controlling the image height and focal length of the optical lens within a reasonable range helps the optical lens to have the characteristic of a large image plane and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, 2.14 < IH / f < 2.4.
[0059] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the back focal length BFL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.8 < BFL / f < 1.1. Meeting the above range and defining that the optical lens has an appropriate back focus facilitate the reasonable arrangement of the positions of the respective lenses and reduce the processing and assembly difficulty at the same time. More specifically, 0.82 < BFL / f < 1.1.
[0060] In some embodiments, the overall optical length TTL of the optical lens, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, and the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 16 < TTL / (IH / 2) / (FOV / 2)×180° < 20. Meeting the above range and restricting the length of the optical lens under the condition of the same imaging area and the same field of view angle realizes the miniaturization of the optical lens. More specifically, 16.15 < TTL / (IH / 2) / (FOV / 2)×180° < 19.65.
[0061] In some embodiments, the clear aperture d1 of the object side surface of the first lens, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, and the maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.25 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 0.5. Meeting the above range can have a small front aperture while meeting the requirements of the optical lens having a large field of view angle and a large image plane. More specifically, 0.27 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 0.47.
[0062] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: -25 < f4 / f < -6.5. Meeting the above range and defining that the fourth lens has an appropriate negative optical power can diverge the light rays emitted by the third lens, making the light rays in the marginal field of view show an upward trend, which is beneficial for the image points on the imaging plane to be away from the optical axis, so as to be conducive to achieving the effect of matching with a large chip, obtaining a larger picture, effectively eliminating aberrations, and improving the resolution ability of the optical lens. More specifically, -24.75 < f4 / f < -6.81.
[0063] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: 2.7 < f5 / f < 6.5; the image-side curvature radius R10 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -3.9 < R10 / f < -2. Meeting the above ranges and setting the fifth lens to have a positive refractive power and a suitable surface shape is beneficial to converging light while correcting the field curvature and distortion of the optical lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, 2.74 < f5 / f < 6.45; -3.85 < R10 / f < -2.01.
[0064] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f5678 of the fifth lens, the sixth lens, the seventh lens, and the eighth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2.5 < f5678 / f < 2.8. Meeting the above range and reasonably setting the relationship of the lens group behind the aperture is beneficial to balancing various aberrations generated by the lens group in front of the aperture and improving the overall imaging quality. More specifically, 2.5 < f5678 / f < 2.77.
[0065] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f7 of the seventh lens satisfy: -2 < f7 / f < -1.2; the object-side curvature radius R13 of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.9 < R13 / f < -1.3; the image-side curvature radius R14 of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2.7 < R14 / f < 6.1. Meeting the above ranges and setting the seventh lens to have a negative refractive power and a bi-concave surface shape can effectively balance various aberrations generated by the front lens group. At the same time, it is beneficial to increase the divergence degree of light, increase the area of light entering the imaging surface, realize large-format imaging of the lens, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -1.93 < f7 / f < -1.24; -1.83 < R13 / f < -1.3; 2.72 < R14 / f < 6.02.
[0066] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f8 of the eighth lens satisfy: 3.8 < f8 / f < 4.2; the object-side curvature radius R15 of the eighth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.6 < R15 / f < 1.9; the image-side curvature radius R16 of the eighth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 10 < R16 / f < 17. Meeting the above ranges and setting the eighth lens to have a positive refractive power and a suitable surface shape is beneficial to light convergence, enabling the light trend to smoothly transition to the rear, reducing the height of the light incident on the rear, slowing down the upward trend of the light, avoiding light energy loss caused by too large a chief ray angle between the large field-of-view light and the chip when reaching the imaging surface, facilitating the improvement of the illuminance of the edge field of view, and being conducive to achieving a short overall optical length. More specifically, 3.85 < f8 / f < 4.16; 1.65 < R15 / f < 1.85; 10.13 < R16 / f < 16.14.
[0067] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: -8.8 < f4 / f5 < -1; the image-side curvature radius R8 of the fourth lens and the object-side curvature radius R9 of the fifth lens satisfy: -7 < R8 / R9 < -1. Meeting the above ranges is beneficial to the smooth transition of light, beneficial to correcting the aberration of the optical lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -8.77 < f4 / f5 < -1.05; -6.95 < R8 / R9 < -1.05.
[0068] In some embodiments, the object-side curvature radius R13 of the seventh lens and the image-side curvature radius R14 of the seventh lens satisfy: -3.2 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < -1.7. Meeting the above range is beneficial to increasing the area of light entering the imaging surface, realizing large-format imaging of the lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -3.11 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < -1.72.
[0069] In some embodiments, the object-side curvature radius R15 of the eighth lens and the image-side curvature radius R16 of the eighth lens satisfy: -1.5 < (R15 + R16) / (R15 - R16) < -1.2. Meeting the above range is beneficial to suppressing the angle of the edge 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 field curvature and spherical aberration of the optical lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -1.42 < (R15 + R16) / (R15 - R16) < -1.23.
[0070] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens to the eighth lens along the optical axis satisfy: 0.4 < ∑CT / TTL < 0.6. Satisfying the above range can effectively compress the total length of the optical lens, and is beneficial to the structural design and production process of the optical lens. More specifically, 0.44 < ∑CT / TTL < 0.6.
[0071] In some embodiments, the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens to the eighth lens along the optical axis and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 4.6 < ΣCT / f < 6.5. Satisfying the above range can effectively correct the field curvature and distortion of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, 4.64 < ΣCT / f < 6.42.
[0072] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -2.2 < f1 / f < -1.7. Satisfying the above range, by setting the first lens to have a negative refractive power, it is beneficial for the first lens to accommodate a larger angle of light and collect as much light as possible into the rear optical system, achieving a large field of view while increasing the light flux. More specifically, -2.15 < f1 / f < -1.75.
[0073] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f2 of the second lens satisfy: -73 < f2 / f < -4.9. Satisfying the above range makes the second lens have a negative optical power and has the effect of diverging light. At the same field of view angle, it further diverges the light emerging from the image side of the first lens, and can disperse the central light and marginal light of each field of view, enabling the rear optical system to have a larger light receiving surface to receive the light emerging from the image side of the second lens, achieving a larger light input and being beneficial to increasing the relative illuminance. More specifically, -72.57 < f2 / f < -4.91.
[0074] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f3 of the third lens satisfy: 2.9 < f3 / f < 3.6. Satisfying the above range limits the third lens to have an appropriate positive optical power and has the effect of converging light, reducing the height of peripheral light and being beneficial to reducing the aperture of the rear lens. More specifically, 2.94 < f3 / f < 3.6.
[0075] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f6 of the sixth lens satisfy: 2 < f6 / f < 2.3; the radius of curvature R11 of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2 < R11 / f < 2.7. Satisfying the above ranges, defining that the sixth lens has a positive optical power and a suitable surface shape is beneficial to light convergence. And by combining the sixth lens with a positive optical power and the seventh lens with a negative optical power, the optical path difference between different fields of view can be adjusted, the resolution can be improved, it is beneficial for light to enter the rear lens smoothly, and further the field curvature can be reduced and the off-axis aberration of the optical lens can be corrected. More specifically, 2.02 < f6 / f < 2.3; 2.07 < R11 / f < 2.64.
[0076] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f67 of the sixth lens and the seventh lens and the combined focal length f5678 of the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth lenses satisfy: -37 < f67 / f5678 < -1.5. Satisfying the above range, defining the focal length relationship between the cemented lens group and the rear diaphragm lens group can effectively correct chromatic aberration, reduce the eccentricity sensitivity of the optical lens, balance the aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
