[0045] For a better understanding of the present application, various aspects of the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these detailed descriptions are merely descriptions of embodiments of the present application and are not intended to 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.
[0046] It should be noted that in this specification, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used solely to distinguish one feature from another and do not limit the features. Thus, the first lens discussed below could also be referred to as the second lens or the third lens without departing from the teachings of the present invention.
[0047] In the drawings, the thickness, size, and shape of the lenses are slightly exaggerated for ease of illustration. Specifically, the shapes of the spherical and aspherical surfaces shown in the drawings are provided by way of example. That is, the shapes of the spherical and aspherical surfaces are not limited to those shown in the drawings. The drawings are for illustration only and are not drawn strictly to scale.
[0048] In this article, the paraxial region refers to the area near the optical axis. If a lens surface is convex and the location of the convex surface is undefined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region. If a lens surface is concave and the location of the concave surface is undefined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the subject is called the object-side surface of the lens, and the surface of each lens closest to the imaging plane is called the image-side surface of the lens.
[0049] 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 preclude 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 list of 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.
[0050] Unless otherwise defined, all terms used herein (including technical and scientific terms) have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. It should also be understood that terms (such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries) should be interpreted as having a meaning consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant technology and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly defined as such herein.
[0051] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this 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.
[0052] The optical lens provided in an embodiment of the present invention comprises seven lenses, which are arranged 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.
[0053] In some embodiments, the first lens may have negative optical power, with its object-side surface being convex and its image-side surface being concave. The second lens may have negative optical power, with its object-side surface being concave and its image-side surface being convex. The third lens may have positive optical power, with its object-side surface being convex and its image-side surface being concave. The fourth lens may have positive optical power, with its object-side surface being convex and its image-side surface being convex. The fifth lens may have positive optical power, with its object-side surface being convex and its image-side surface being convex. The sixth lens may have negative optical power, with its object-side surface being convex and its image-side surface being concave. The seventh lens may have positive optical power, with its object-side surface being concave and its image-side surface being convex.
[0054] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include an aperture, which may be located between the third and fourth lenses. It is understood that the aperture is used to limit the amount of light entering, thereby changing the brightness of the image. Furthermore, when the aperture is located between the third and fourth lenses, it can effectively distribute the functions of the first through seventh lenses. For example, the first, second, and third lenses can be used to receive a greater amount of light, while the fourth through seventh lenses can be used to correct aberrations, thus balancing the structure of the entire optical system. Furthermore, when the aperture is located between the third and fourth lenses, it facilitates the correction of aperture aberrations.
[0055] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter and a protective glass. The filter and protective glass may be positioned sequentially along the optical axis between the seventh lens element and the imaging surface. The filter is used to filter out interfering light, preventing it from reaching the imaging surface of the optical lens and affecting normal imaging. The protective glass protects the optical lens from damage to the photosensitive chip and improves the optical lens's impact and scratch resistance, while having little impact on the optical lens's imaging quality.
[0056] In some embodiments, the object-side curvature radius R11 of the sixth lens element and the image-side curvature radius R12 of the sixth lens element satisfy the following relationship: 0.5 < (R11 - R12) / (R11 + R12) < 1. Meeting this range helps increase light divergence, increasing the area of the imaging surface where light enters, achieving large-area imaging, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, 0.66 < (R11 + R12) / (R11 - R12) < 0.85.
[0057] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R13 of the object side surface of the seventh lens and the radius of curvature R14 of the image side surface of the seventh lens satisfy: 0.6 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < 1. Meeting the above range reduces the height of the light incident on the rear, avoids the light energy loss caused by the excessive main ray angle of the large field of view light when reaching the imaging surface, is beneficial to improving the illuminance of the edge field of view, and is conducive to achieving a short overall optical length. More specifically, 0.71 < (R13 - R14) / (R13 + R14) < 0.81.
[0058] In some embodiments, the overall optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 7 < TTL / f < 9. Meeting the above range can effectively limit the length of the lens and is beneficial to the miniaturization of the optical lens. More specifically, 7.71 < TTL / f < 8.85.
[0059] In some embodiments, the overall 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 < TTL / IH < 4.2. Meeting the above range ensures that under the condition of the same overall length of the lens, it has a larger image plane, can match a larger-sized imaging chip to achieve high-definition imaging, and better realizes the balance between the small overall length and the large image plane of the lens. More specifically, 3.37 < TTL / IH < 3.@97.
[0060] The maximum field of view angle FOV of the optical lens and the aperture value Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 80° < FOV / Fno < 90°. Meeting the above range limits that the optical lens has an appropriate field of view angle and aperture value, can collect light at a large angle, and obtain good imaging quality. More specifically, 83.32° < FOV / Fno < 87.28°.
[0061] 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: 3.6 < IH / EPD < %@1. Meeting the above range can increase the width of the light beam incident on the optical lens, improve the brightness of the optical lens at the image plane, and avoid the generation of vignetting. More specifically, 3.67 < IH / EPD < 3.89.
[0062] 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: 2.15 < IH / f < 2.5. Meeting the above range controls 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 improves the imaging quality. More specifically, 2.19 < IH / f < 2.29.
[0063] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the back focal length BFL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.9 < BFL / f < 1.3. Meeting the above range limits the optical lens to have an appropriate back focus, facilitating the reasonable arrangement of the positions of each lens and reducing the processing and assembly difficulty. More specifically, 0.99 < BFL / f < 1.15.
[0064] 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 angle of the optical lens, and the maximum field angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.57 < d1 / (IH / 2) / tan(FOV / 2) < 0.7. Meeting the above range can have a small front aperture while meeting the requirements of the optical lens having a large field angle and a large image plane.
[0065] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f123 of the first lens, the second lens, and the third lens and the combined focal length f4567 of the fourth lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens satisfy: -4.1 < f123 / f4567 < -1.8. Meeting the above range is conducive to balancing various aberrations generated by the lens groups before and after the aperture by reasonably setting the focal length relationship of the lens groups before and after the aperture, and improving the overall imaging quality. More specifically, -3.83 < f123 / f4567 < -1.98.
[0066] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f1 of the first lens satisfy: -2.4 < f1 / f < -1.7. Meeting the above range is conducive to the first lens accommodating a larger angle of light and collecting as much light as possible into the rear optical system by setting the first lens to have a negative refractive power, increasing the light flux while achieving a large field of view. More specifically, -2.29 < f1 / f < -1.87.
[0067] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f2 of the second lens satisfy: -9.5 < f2 / f < -7.5. Meeting the above range makes the second lens have a negative optical power, which can share the negative optical power at the front end of the optical lens, thus facilitating the avoidance of excessive light deflection caused by the overly concentrated optical power of the first lens and reducing the difficulty of aberration correction of the optical lens. More specifically, -9.36 < f2 / f < -8.42.
[0068] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: 2.2 < f5 / f < 2.6; 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: |(R9 + R10) / (R9 - R10)| < 0.2; 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: 2.4 < R9 / f < 3.3; 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: -3.3 < R10 / f < -2.2. Satisfying the above ranges and setting the fifth lens to have positive refractive power and a suitable surface shape is beneficial for converging light while correcting the aberration of the optical lens and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, 2.45 < f5 / f < 2.6; -0.08 < (R9 + R10) / (R9 - R10) < 0.11; 2.65 < R9 / f < 2.99; -3.05 < R10 / f < -2.42.
[0069] 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 < -1.8; 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: 7 < R11 / f < 19; the radius of curvature R12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.4 < R12 / f < 1.7. Satisfying the above ranges can effectively balance various aberrations generated by the front lens group, and at the same time is beneficial for increasing the divergence degree of light, increasing the area of light entering the imaging surface, achieving large target surface imaging of the lens, and improving the imaging quality of the optical lens. More specifically, -1.98 < f6 / f < -1.86; 7.32 < R11 / f < 18.09; 1.46 < R12 / f < 1.6.
[0070] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f7 of the seventh lens satisfy: 6 < f7 / f < 8; the radius of curvature R13 of the object side surface of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -33 < R13 / f < -21; the radius of curvature R14 of the image side surface of the seventh lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -4 < R14 / f < -3.1. Satisfying the above ranges and setting the seventh lens to have positive refractive power and a suitable surface shape is beneficial for light convergence, enabling the light trend to smoothly transition to the rear, reducing the height of the light incident on the rear, avoiding the light energy loss caused by the excessive main ray angle of the large field of view light reaching the imaging surface, facilitating the improvement of the illuminance of the edge field of view, and being beneficial for achieving a short optical total length. More specifically, 6.61 < f7 / f < 7.88; -30.77 < R13 / f < -22.72; -3.87 < R14 / f < -3.42.
[0071] 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 seventh lens along the optical axis satisfy: 0.56 < ∑CT / TTL < 0.59. Meeting 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.
[0072] In some embodiments, the sum ∑CT of the central thicknesses of the first lens to the seventh lens along the optical axis and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 4.45 < ΣCT / f < 5.08. Meeting the above range can effectively correct the field curvature and distortion of the optical lens and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0073] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f3 of the third lens satisfy: 4.5 < f3 / f < 6. Meeting the above range defines that the third lens has an appropriate positive optical power, which has the effect of converging light rays, reducing the height of peripheral light rays, is beneficial to reducing the aperture of the rear lens, and is also beneficial to balancing aberrations and improving resolution. More specifically, 4.73 < f3 / f < 5.81.
[0074] In some embodiments, the effective focal length f of the optical lens and the focal length f4 of the fourth lens satisfy: 2.5 < f4 / f < 3.3; the curvature radius R8 of the image side of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -3.3 < R8 / f < -2.5. Meeting the above range defines that the fourth lens has an appropriate positive optical power, further converges the light rays, is beneficial to making the light rays enter the rear lens smoothly, can adjust the optical path difference between different fields of view, and improve resolution. More specifically, 2.73 < f4 / f < 3.02; -3.1 < R8 / f < -2.77.
[0075] In some embodiments, the optical lens satisfies the following conditional expressions: 3.6 mm < f < 4 mm; 2.1 mm < EPD < 2.4 mm; 30 mm < TTL < 34.3 mm; 1.6 < Fno < 1.8; 20° < CRA < 24°; 3.6 mm < BFL < 4.7 mm; 135° < FOV < 150°; 8 mm < IH < 9.5 mm. In the above conditional expressions, f represents the effective focal length of the optical lens, FOV represents the maximum field angle of the optical lens, EPD represents the entrance pupil diameter of the optical lens, TTL represents the total optical length of the optical lens, Fno represents the aperture value of the optical lens, IH represents the true image height corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens, CRA represents the chief ray angle of incidence of the optical lens, and BFL represents the back focal length of the optical lens. Meeting the above ranges, the optical lens has at least one or more advantages such as a large field angle, a large target surface, and a large aperture. More specifically, 3.86 mm < f < 3.91 mm; 2.28 mm < EPD < 2.36 mm; 30.11 mm < TTL < 34.22 mm; 1.64 < Fno < 1.71; 21.36° < CRA < 23.88°; 3.87 mm < BFL < 4.42 mm; 139° < FOV < 145°; 8.5 mm < IH < 8.92 mm.
[0076] In some embodiments, the lens material in 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.
[0077] 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 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 fourth lens of the present invention adopts an aspherical lens; the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fifth lens, the sixth lens, and the seventh lens adopt spherical lenses.
[0078] In various embodiments of the present invention, when the lens adopts an aspherical lens, the shapes of the aspherical surfaces of the optical lens satisfy the following equations:
[0079] ;
[0080] Where z is the distance between the surface and the vertex in the direction of the optical axis, h is the distance from the optical axis to the surface, c is the curvature of the surface vertex, K is the quadratic surface coefficient, and B, C, D, E, and F are the fourth-order, sixth-order, eighth-order, tenth-order, and twelfth-order surface coefficients, respectively.
[0081] The present invention is further illustrated below with reference to several embodiments. In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens vary; for details, please refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment. The following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Any other changes, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications that do not deviate from the novelties of the present invention shall be considered equivalent replacements and are included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0101] In this embodiment, the field curvature curve, F-Tan (Theta) distortion curve, axial aberration curve, vertical chromatic aberration curve, and MTF curve of the optical lens 100 are shown as follows: Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 shown.
[0102] Figure 2 The following graph shows the field curvature curves of Example 1, which plot the field curvature of light of different wavelengths on the meridional and sagittal image planes. The horizontal axis represents the offset (unit: mm), and the vertical axis represents the half field angle (unit: degrees). As can be seen from the graph, the field curvature on the meridional and sagittal image planes is controlled within a range of -0.03mm to 0.02mm, demonstrating that optical lens 100 is capable of effectively correcting field curvature.
[0103] Figure 3 The following graph shows the F-Tan (Theta) distortion curve for Example 1, which represents the F-Tan (Theta) distortion at different image heights on the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the F-Tan (Theta) distortion value (unit: %), and the vertical axis represents the half field of view angle (unit: °). As can be seen from the graph, the F-Tan (Theta) distortion of the optical lens 100 is controlled within a range of -65% to 0, indicating that the distortion of the optical lens 100 is well corrected.
[0104] Figure 4The axial aberration curve of Example 1 is shown, which shows the aberration of each wavelength on the optical axis at the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the axial aberration value (unit: mm), and the vertical axis represents the normalized pupil radius. As can be seen from the figure, the offset of the axial aberration is controlled within -0.04mm to 0.06mm, indicating that the optical lens 100 is able to correct axial aberration well.
[0105] Figure 5 A graph of vertical chromatic aberration for Example 1 is shown. It plots the chromatic aberration of each wavelength relative to the center wavelength (0.546 μm) at different image heights on the imaging plane. The horizontal axis represents the vertical chromatic aberration value of each wavelength relative to the center wavelength (unit: μm), and the vertical axis represents the normalized field of view angle. As can be seen from the graph, the vertical chromatic aberration for both the longest and shortest wavelengths is controlled within ±2 μm, demonstrating that the optical lens 100 is capable of excellent chromatic aberration correction.
[0106] Figure 6 The MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) curve for Example 1 is shown. It represents the degree of lens imaging modulation at different spatial frequencies across the field of view. The horizontal axis represents spatial frequency (lp / mm), and the vertical axis represents the MTF value. As can be seen from the graph, the MTF value of this example is consistently above 0.3 across the entire field of view. Within the range of 0 to 160 lp / mm, the MTF curve decreases evenly and smoothly from the center to the edge of the field of view, demonstrating excellent imaging quality and detail resolution at both low and high frequencies.
