[0043] To better understand the present application, more detailed descriptions of various aspects of the present application will be made with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are only descriptions of the embodiments of the present application and do not limit the scope of the present application in any way. 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.

[0044] It should be noted that in this specification, the expressions such as first, second, third, etc. are only used to distinguish one feature from another feature and do not represent any limitation on the feature. Therefore, without departing from the teachings of the present invention, the first lens discussed below may also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens.

[0045] In the drawings, for ease of explanation, the thickness, dimensions, and shape of the lens are slightly exaggerated. Specifically, the spherical or aspherical shapes shown in the drawings are presented by way of example. That is, the spherical or aspherical shapes are not limited to those shown in the drawings. The drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not drawn to an exact scale.

[0046] In this document, 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 being photographed is called the object side surface of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the imaging surface is called the image side surface of the lens.

[0047] It should also be understood that the terms "comprises," "comprising," "has," "including," and / or "including having," when used in this specification, denote the presence of the stated features, elements, and / or components, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof. In addition, when an expression such as "at least one of..." appears after a list of listed features, it modifies the entire list of listed features rather than individual elements in the list. Further, when describing embodiments of the present application, the use of "may" means "one or more embodiments of the present application." Also, the term "exemplary" is intended to refer to an example or illustration.

[0048] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in a common dictionary) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.

[0049] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0050] The optical lens provided by an embodiment of the present invention is composed of seven lenses, 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, and a seventh lens.

[0051] In some embodiments, the first lens may have a negative optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being concave. The second lens may have a negative optical power, with its object side being concave and its image side being convex. The third lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being convex or concave. The fourth lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side being convex or concave and its image side being convex. The fifth lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being concave. The sixth lens may have a negative optical power, with its object side being convex and its image side being concave. The seventh lens may have a positive optical power, with its object side being concave and its image side being convex.

[0052] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a diaphragm, which may be located between the third lens and the fourth lens. It can be understood that the diaphragm is used to limit the amount of incident light to change the brightness of the imaging. Additionally, when the diaphragm is located between the third lens and the fourth lens, the diaphragm can reasonably distribute the functions of the first lens to the seventh lens. For example, the first lens, the second lens, and the third lens can be used to receive light to a greater extent, and the fourth lens to the seventh lens can be used to correct aberrations, which is beneficial to balancing the structure of the entire optical system. Furthermore, when the diaphragm is located between the third lens and the fourth lens, it is convenient to correct the diaphragm aberration.

[0053] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter and a protective glass, which are sequentially arranged along the optical axis between the seventh lens and the imaging surface. The filter is used to filter out interfering light to prevent the interfering light from reaching the imaging surface of the optical lens and affecting normal imaging. The protective glass plays a role in protecting the optical lens, preventing the photosensitive chip from being damaged, and can improve the anti-impact and scratch-resistant capabilities of the optical lens, while having little impact on the imaging quality of the optical lens.

[0054] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R13 of the object side of the seventh lens and the radius of curvature R14 of the image side of the seventh lens satisfy: 0.3 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < 0.85. Meeting the above range, by reasonably controlling the shape of the seventh lens, it helps to reduce the light deflection angle, making the light trend reaching the imaging surface stable, and can effectively improve the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, 0.33 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < 0.82.

[0055] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 8.7 < TTL / f < 9; 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: 3.9 < TTL / IH < 4.1. Meeting the above ranges helps to ensure sufficient space for adjusting the structures of the lenses inside the optical lens, optimize the imaging effect, balance the requirements of the image plane size and the overall size of the optical lens, and improve the overall structural stability of the optical lens. More specifically, 8.75 < TTL / f < 8.97, 3.98 < TTL / IH < 4.07.

[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: 88° < FOV / Fno < 91°; 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 < 3.7. Meeting the above ranges is beneficial to expanding the field of view angle of the optical lens and increasing the aperture of the optical lens, facilitating the optical lens to obtain more scene information and meet the requirements of large-range detection. The realization of the large-aperture characteristic is beneficial to improving the problem of rapid decline of the relative brightness in the edge field of view, thereby also being beneficial to obtaining more scene information, and increasing the width of the light beam entering the optical lens, so that the brightness at the image plane of the optical lens is improved to avoid vignetting and enhance the relative illuminance at the edge of the image plane of the optical lens. More specifically, 88.68° < FOV / Fno < 90.69°, 3.52 < IH / EPD < 3.63.

[0057] 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: 2.1 < IH / f < 2.3; the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the back focal length BFL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.85 < BFL / f < 1.4. Meeting the above ranges helps to realize the large-image-plane characteristic, improve the imaging quality of the optical lens, and helps the optical lens to have an appropriate back focal length, facilitating the reasonable arrangement of the positions of the lenses, and at the same time reducing the processing and assembly difficulty. More specifically, 2.15 < IH / f < 2.26, 0.86 < BFL / f < 1.31.

[0058] In some embodiments, the clear aperture radius 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: 0.55 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 0.63; the combined focal length f4567 of the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 2.2 < f4567 / f < 3.6. Meeting the above ranges can effectively control the front aperture and the rear aperture of the optical lens, improve the structural stability of the optical lens, and reasonably control the focal length ratio of the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens of the optical lens, which helps to balance the lens aberration and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, 2.22 < f4567 / f < 3.52.

Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably distributing the negative optical power ratio of the second lens, it helps to share the negative optical power of the front-end lens, avoid excessive light deflection caused by overly concentrated optical power, and reduce the difficulty of chromatic aberration correction of the optical lens; by reasonably distributing the positive optical power ratio of the third lens, it helps to converge the marginal field light and transmit more light to the rear-end lens to correct the aberration and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, -28.09 < f2 / f < -11.93, 3.54 < f3 / f < 7.3.

[0060] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: 2.9 < f5 / f < 6; the radius of curvature R9 of the object side surface of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.5 < R9 / f < 2.6; the radius of curvature R10 of the image side surface of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 12 < R10 / f < 25. Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably distributing the positive optical power ratio of the fifth lens, it helps to balance the lens aberration and improve the imaging quality, and by defining the shapes of the object side surface and the image side surface of the fifth lens, it helps to optimize the spherical aberration and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, 2.96 < f5 / f < 5.65, 1.56 < R9 / f < 2.59, 12.22 < R10 / f < 24.45.

Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably distributing the proportion of the positive optical power of the seventh lens, it helps to improve the brightness of the edge field of view, avoid vignetting, and by defining the shapes of the object side surface and the image side surface of the seventh lens, it helps to slow down the degree of light deflection and reduce aberration. More specifically, 6.05 < f7 / f < 18.02, -29.33 < R13 / f < -17.12, -8.51 < R14 / f < -3.08.

[0062] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R9 of the object side surface of the fifth lens and the radius of curvature R10 of the image side surface of the fifth lens satisfy: -0.85 < (R9 - R10) / (R9 + R10) < -0.6; the radius of curvature R9 of the object side surface of the fifth lens and the radius of curvature R10 of the image side surface of the fifth lens satisfy: 0.08 < R9 / R10 < 0.22. Meeting the above ranges, by reasonably defining the shapes of the object side surface and the image side surface of the fifth lens, it helps to further balance the lens aberration, improve the imaging quality; and reduce the difficulty of aberration correction of the rear-end lens. More specifically, -0.84 < (R9 - R10) / (R9 + R10) < -0.64.

[0063] In some embodiments, the clear aperture semi-diameter d13 of the object side surface of the seventh lens and the sagittal height Sag13 of the clear aperture of the object side surface of the seventh lens satisfy: -0.07 < Sag13 / d13 < -0.01; the clear aperture semi-diameter d14 of the image side surface of the seventh lens and the sagittal height Sag14 of the clear aperture of the image side surface of the seventh lens satisfy: -0.18 < Sag14 / d14 < -0.03.

Meeting the above ranges can achieve high pixel characteristics, improve the imaging quality of the optical lens, and reduce the production cost. More specifically: 4.14 < ∑CT / f < 4.64.

[0065] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -2.5 < f1 / f < -2. Meeting the above range and reasonably defining the proportion of the negative optical power of the first lens helps to achieve large-angle light collection and obtain more picture information. More specifically, -2.42 < f1 / f < -2.02.

[0066] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: 2.4 < f4 / f < 4. Meeting the above range and reasonably defining the proportion of the positive optical power of the fourth lens helps to reduce the field curvature of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, 2.41 < f4 / f < 3.89.

Meeting the above range and reasonably distributing the proportion of the negative optical power of the sixth lens helps to increase the imaging area of the lens and improve the imaging quality. And by defining the shapes of the object side surface and the image side surface of the sixth lens, it helps to reduce the high-order aberration of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality. More specifically, -2.57 < f6 / f < -2.02, 7.29 < R11 / f < 19.34, 1.78 < R12 / f < 2.07.

[0069] In some embodiments, the lens material of the optical lens provided by the present invention can be glass or plastic. When the lens material is plastic, the production cost can be effectively reduced. When the lens material is glass, the geometric chromatic aberration of the optical system can be effectively corrected by the low dispersion characteristic of the glass itself. The optical lens provided by the present invention can adopt an all-glass lens structure, which can reduce dispersion, effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens can adopt spherical lenses or aspherical lenses. Compared with the spherical lens structure, the aspherical structure can effectively reduce the aberration of the optical system, thereby reducing the number of lenses and the size of the lenses, and better realizing the miniaturization of the lens. More specifically, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens of the present invention adopt spherical lenses, the fourth lens adopts an aspherical lens, and the seventh lens can adopt a spherical lens or an aspherical lens.

In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens are partially different. For specific differences, refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment.

The horizontal axis represents the F-Tan(Theta) distortion value (unit: %), and the vertical axis represents the half field of view angle (unit: °).

It can be seen from the figure that the MTF value in this embodiment is above 0.3 in the entire field of view.
