The total number of lenses with refractive power in the optical lens assembly is, for example but not limited to, 4. The first absorption polarizing element 151, the reflection polarizing element 152 and the first phase delay element 153 constitute an optical element assembly 150.
[0093] The position of the light barrier 100 may be the position where the user's eyes view the image.
[0094] The first lens 110 has positive refractive power and is made of plastic. Its eye-side surface 111 is convex at the near optical axis, and its image source-side surface 112 is convex at the near optical axis. Both the eye-side surface 111 and the image source-side surface 112 of the first lens 110 are spherical surfaces.
[0095] The second lens 120 has positive refractive power and is made of plastic. Its eye-side surface 121 is flat at the near optical axis, and its image source-side surface 122 is convex at the near optical axis. The eye-side surface 121 of the second lens 120 is spherical, and the image source-side surface 122 of the second lens 120 is aspherical.
[0096] The third lens 130 has negative refractive power and is made of plastic, and its eye-side surface 131 is concave at the near optical axis, and its image source-side surface 132 is convex at the near optical axis, and both the eye-side surface 131 and the image source-side surface 132 of the third lens 130 are aspherical surfaces. The second lens 120 and the third lens 130 are cemented together.
[0097] The fourth lens 140 has positive refractive power and is made of plastic. Its eye-side surface 141 is convex at the near optical axis, and its image source-side surface 142 is convex at the near optical axis. Both the eye-side surface 141 and the image source-side surface 142 of the fourth lens 140 are aspherical.
[0098] The first absorption polarizing element 151 is disposed on the eye-side surface of the reflection polarizing element 152, the reflection polarizing element 152 is disposed on the eye-side surface of the first phase delay element 153, and the first phase delay element 153 is disposed on the eye-side surface 121 of the second lens 120. The first phase delay element 153 is, for example but not limited to, a quarter wave plate.
[0099] The partially reflective and partially transmissive element 160 is disposed on the image source side surface 132 of the third lens 130 and has an average light reflectivity of at least 30% in the visible light range, preferably an average light reflectivity of 50%. The average light reflectivity here refers to the average value of the reflectivity of the partially reflective and partially transmissive element 160 for light of different wavelengths.
[0100] The second phase delay element 171 is disposed on the eye-side surface of the second absorption polarization element 170, and the second absorption polarization element 172 is disposed on the image source surface 180. The second phase delay element 171 is, for example but not limited to, a quarter wave plate.
[0101] The optical lens assembly can be used in conjunction with an image source 183, and the image source 183 can be disposed on the image source plane 180. In this embodiment, the type of the image source 183 is, for example but not limited to, an OLED display, a LED display, a liquid crystal display or other displays.
[0102] The curve equations of the aspheric surfaces of the above lenses are expressed as follows:
[0103]
[0104] Wherein z is the position value at a height of h along the optical axis 190 with the surface vertex as a reference; c is the curvature of the lens surface at the near optical axis and is the reciprocal of the radius of curvature (R) (c=1 / R), R is the radius of curvature of the lens surface at the near optical axis; h is the vertical distance from the lens surface to the optical axis 190; k is the conic constant; Ai is the i-th order aspheric coefficient.
[0105] In the first embodiment, the optical lens group can be configured by combining an absorption polarizing element, a reflection polarizing element, a phase delay element, a partially reflecting and partially transmitting element and a lens, and folding the light path by utilizing the penetration and reflection of light without affecting the quality of the image, so as to compress the length of the lens group required to form the image. Please refer to Figure 1BAccording to the optical path L shown in FIG. 1 , the linearly polarized light emitted by the image source 183 will form circularly polarized light after passing through the second absorption polarizer 172 and the second phase delay element 171. After passing through the fourth lens 140, a portion of the circularly polarized light will pass through the partially reflective and partially transmissive element 160 as a transmitted light in a circularly polarized state and then pass through the third lens 130, the second lens 120 and the first phase delay element 153 to form a transmitted light in a linearly polarized state. Then, the transmitted light in the linearly polarized state is reflected by the reflection polarizer 152 and passes through the first phase delay element 153. The circularly polarized transmitted light is formed by the phase retarder 153. After the circularly polarized transmitted light passes through the second lens 120 and the third lens 130, a portion of the circularly polarized transmitted light is reflected by the partially reflective and partially transmissive element 160 as the circularly polarized reflected light, and then passes through the third lens 130, the second lens 120 and the first phase retarder 153 to form the linearly polarized reflected light. Finally, the linearly polarized reflected light penetrates the reflective polarizing element 152, the first absorptive polarizing element 151 and the first lens 110 to enter the user's eyes to form an image.

[0219] In the optical lens assembly provided by the present invention, the lens can be made of plastic or glass. When the lens is made of plastic, the production cost can be effectively reduced; when the lens is made of glass, the degree of freedom of the refractive power configuration of the optical lens assembly can be increased.
[0220] In the optical lens assembly provided by the present invention, the aspherical lens surface can be made into a shape other than a spherical surface to obtain more control variables and to reduce aberrations, thereby reducing the number of lenses used, thereby effectively reducing the total length of the optical lens assembly of the present invention.
[0221] In the optical lens set provided by the present invention, with respect to a lens having refractive power, if the surface of the lens is convex and the position of the convex surface is not defined, it means that the surface of the lens is convex at the near optical axis; if the surface of the lens is concave and the position of the concave surface is not defined, it means that the surface of the lens is concave at the near optical axis.
[0222] In the optical lens assembly provided by the present invention, the maximum effective radius of the lens surface generally refers to the radius of the effective optical area of the lens surface (ie, the area of the lens that has not been surface treated, ablated or applied with a light shielding layer, but not limited thereto).
[0223] In addition, the optical lens assembly provided by the present invention can be applied to an electronic device, such as but not limited to a head-mounted electronic device. Fig. 9The schematic diagram of a head-mounted electronic device according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The head-mounted electronic device 9 is, for example but not limited to, a head-mounted display using virtual reality technology, augmented reality (AR) technology, and mixed reality (MR) technology, and includes a housing 910, an optical-mechanical module 920, an image source 930, and a controller 940 disposed in the housing 910.
[0224] The optical module 920 corresponds to the left eye and the right eye of the user respectively. The optical module 920 includes an optical lens set, and the optical lens set can be any one of the optical lens sets in the first embodiment to the eighth embodiment.
[0225] The image source 930 may be any one of the image sources of the first embodiment to the eighth embodiment. The image source 930 may correspond to the left eye and the right eye. The type of the image source 930 is, for example but not limited to, an OLED display, an LED display, a liquid crystal display or other displays.
[0226] The controller 940 is electrically connected to the image source 930 to control the image source 930 to display images, so that the head mounted electronic device 9 can project images to the user's eyes.
[0227] Although the present invention is disclosed as above with the aforementioned embodiments, these embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the changes, modifications and combinations of various embodiments are all within the scope of patent protection of the present invention.
