Abstract
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional application. The original application has the application number 202380028485.2 and the original application date is March 21, 2023. The entire contents of the original application are incorporated herein by reference.
[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202210288243.4, filed on March 23, 2022, entitled "Optical Lens, Camera Module and Electronic Device", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0003] This application relates to the field of shooting equipment technology, and in particular to an optical lens, camera module and electronic device. Background Technology
[0004] With the increasing prevalence of portable electronic products, camera modules are typical optical lenses, camera modules, and electronic components of electronic devices. In multi-camera setups, telephoto lenses are indispensable. Telephoto lenses have become a development trend in electronic product camera modules.
[0005] To enhance the photography experience, it's generally desirable to have larger image sensors, smaller F-numbers (larger apertures), and closer telephoto macro capabilities. However, in earlier upright designs, the size of the optical lens increased dramatically with the focal length, which was limited by the size of portable devices and made macro photography difficult.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an optical lens that combines telephoto, macro, large aperture, and miniaturization. Summary of the Invention
[0007] This application provides an optical lens, a camera module, and an electronic device. The optical lens features telephoto, macro, and large aperture characteristics, and can be miniaturized.
[0008] In a first aspect, this application provides an optical lens, comprising a first lens group and a second lens group arranged along the object side to the image side. The first lens group has positive optical power, and the second lens group has negative optical power. The first lens group and / or the second lens group are focusing lens groups. During the focusing process of the optical lens switching from a distant scene to a close-up scene, the distance between the first lens group and the second lens group increases, and the effective focal length of the optical lens decreases. The optical lens satisfies the following relationship: F2 / EFL > -5, where F2 is the focal length of the second lens group and EFL is the effective focal length of the optical lens. During focusing, only the first lens group can move along the optical axis for focusing, only the second lens group can move along the optical axis for focusing, or both the first and second lens groups can move along the optical axis for focusing. It should be noted that when the object distance is infinity, the optical lens of this application is a fixed-focus lens; when the object distance switches from infinity to macro, the focal length of the optical lens decreases.
[0009] This application, by limiting the optical power of the first and second lens groups and limiting F2 / EFL > -5, enables the optical lens to possess the characteristics of telephoto, macro, and large aperture, while also achieving miniaturization. Specifically, the first lens group has positive optical power and is used for beam converging, resulting in a smaller diameter of the beam entering the second lens group. The aperture of the second lens group is no longer a maximum limitation on the aperture size, which is beneficial for the miniaturization of the optical lens and the design of a large aperture, effectively increasing the aperture size and achieving a smaller f / 1.5. The second lens group has negative optical power, which is beneficial for telephoto design and for achieving focusing and macro focusing, with a short focusing throw and strong focusing capability. By limiting F2 / EFL > -5, it is ensured that the second lens group has sufficiently large optical power, reducing the focusing throw, resulting in strong focusing capability, good image quality, and high image sharpness when shooting objects at different distances. The optical lens of this application can not only shoot distant scenes, but also shoot close-up macro scenes. The optical lens of this application has good shooting effect on subjects with an object distance of infinity to 20mm. In particular, when shooting macro objects with an object distance of 20mm to 50mm, the optical lens of this application has a small focusing distance and high image quality.
[0010] In one possible implementation, during the focusing process of the optical lens switching from a distant view to a close-up view, the first lens group moves along the optical axis towards the object side and / or the second lens group moves along the optical axis towards the image side. During the focusing process, the second lens group may move towards the image side, or the first lens group may move towards the object side, or the first lens group may move towards the object side and the second lens group may move towards the image side, thereby increasing the distance between the first and second lens groups, reducing the effective focal length of the optical lens, and achieving macro photography.
[0011] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 0.5 ≤ TTL / EFL ≤ 5, where TTL is the distance along the optical axis from the object-side surface of the first lens in the first lens group to the imaging plane when in the operating state. The first lens is the lens closest to the object side in the first lens group. Limiting the range of TTL / EFL is beneficial for miniaturizing the optical lens.
[0012] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: F1 / EFL ≤ 5, where F1 is the focal length of the first lens group. By limiting the appropriate range of F1 / EFL, the optical power of the first lens group can be reasonably configured, the aperture number can be reduced, which is beneficial for the design of a large aperture, increases the light transmission diameter, and ensures good image quality.
[0013] In one possible implementation, the first lens group includes at least two lenses with different Abbe numbers. Chromatic aberration correction requires lenses with different Abbe numbers; therefore, by setting the Abbe numbers of the different lenses in the first lens group to be different, the impact of chromatic aberration on image quality is reduced.
[0014] In one possible implementation, the first lens group includes a first lens, a second lens, and a third lens arranged from the object side to the image side. The first lens has positive optical power, the second lens has negative optical power, and the third lens has positive optical power. In this embodiment, the reasonable configuration of the optical powers of the first, second, and third lenses is beneficial for the design of a large aperture, increasing the light transmission diameter while ensuring good image quality.
[0015] In one possible implementation, the first lens group includes a first lens, and the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: Vd1 ≥ 18, where Vd1 is the Abbe number of the first lens. For example, the Abbe number of the first lens can be 40 or 50, etc. By limiting the Abbe number of the first lens to be greater than 18, a larger Abbe number is ensured for the first lens group. In this case, the first lens group can ensure that the optical lens does not produce excessive residual chromatic aberration, reducing the design difficulty of the lens group located on its image side.
[0016] In one possible implementation, at least one lens in the first lens group is made of glass. Glass lenses are advantageous for improving image quality, reducing chromatic aberration and temperature drift effects in the optical lens, and avoiding the influence of temperature changes on the focal length of the optical lens. Understandably, the lenses in the first and second lens groups can all be glass, or all plastic, or a combination of both. Glass lenses are advantageous for improving image quality and reducing chromatic aberration and temperature drift effects, while plastic lenses can reduce the weight and cost of the optical lens.
[0017] In one possible implementation, the first lens group includes a first lens, the object-side surface of which has a convex near-optical axis region to facilitate beam focusing. The near-optical axis region of the object-side surface of the first lens refers to the region that is 1 / 50th of the aperture height of the object-side surface of the first lens.
[0018] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 1mm ≤ φ1 ≤ 30mm, where φ1 is the maximum effective area diameter of the first lens group. The larger the maximum effective area diameter of the first lens group, the larger the target surface size of the optical lens can be, giving the optical lens a large target surface characteristic, which is beneficial for increasing image sharpness and improving image quality.
[0019] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 1mm ≤ φ2 ≤ 30mm, where φ2 is the maximum effective area diameter of the second lens group. The larger the maximum effective area diameter of the second lens group, the larger the target surface size of the optical lens can be, giving the optical lens a large target surface characteristic, which is beneficial for increasing image sharpness and improving image quality.
[0020] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 0.3mm ≤ h1 ≤ 50mm, where h1 is the maximum pop-up height of the first lens group. The maximum pop-up height of the first lens group refers to the maximum distance the first lens group moves when the optical lens switches from a non-working state to a working state. In this embodiment, the maximum pop-up height of the first lens group is small, meaning the displacement of the first lens group is small. This reduces the power requirement of the motor, decreases the size of the motor used to drive the movement of the first lens group, and makes it easier to miniaturize the camera module.
[0021] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 0.3mm ≤ h2 ≤ 50mm, where h2 is the maximum pop-up height of the second lens group. The maximum pop-up height of the second lens group refers to the maximum distance the second lens group moves when the optical lens switches from a non-working state to a working state. In this embodiment, the maximum pop-up height of the second lens group is small, meaning the displacement of the second lens group is small. This reduces the power requirement of the motor, decreases the size of the motor used to drive the movement of the second lens group, and makes it easier to miniaturize the camera module.
[0022] In one possible implementation, the optical lens includes a variable aperture, the size of which decreases during the focusing process from a distant scene to a close-up. When shooting distant scenes, adjusting the variable aperture to increase the aperture size results in a shallow depth of field and good bokeh, which is beneficial for distant shots. However, for macro photography, to improve image sharpness, a bokeh effect is not recommended; therefore, the variable aperture needs to be reduced to improve macro shooting quality.
[0023] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 0.5 ≤ Fno ≤ 8, where Fno is the aperture number of the optical lens. A smaller Fno corresponds to a larger aperture, and vice versa. When shooting distant scenes, adjusting the variable aperture to decrease Fno results in a larger aperture, leading to better bokeh and fading, which is beneficial for distant shots. For macro photography, increasing Fno and decreasing the aperture improves the quality of macro shots.
[0024] In one possible implementation, the optical lens includes a third lens group located on the image side of the second lens group, and the third lens group has optical power. The third lens group can have positive or negative optical power. During focusing, the position of the third lens group can remain unchanged, or it can move. The third lens group is used to correct field curvature and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens. For example, the third lens group can have negative optical power. In this case, the third lens group acts as a field-planing lens, compensating for some of the field curvature changes caused by focusing, thereby greatly enhancing the focusing capability of the second lens group. This results in a stronger focusing capability for the optical lens and ensures uniform image quality from infinity to finite distance, leading to higher imaging quality for the camera module. In other implementations, when the third lens group has positive optical power, it is to match the special structural requirements such as different movement directions of the second lens group during autofocus.
[0025] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 5mm ≤ ox1 + ox2 + ox3 ≤ 30mm, where ox1 is the thickness of the first lens group on the optical axis, ox2 is the thickness of the second lens group on the optical axis, and ox3 is the thickness of the third lens group on the optical axis. The optical lens of this application can be used in pop-up camera modules or periscope camera modules. Taking a pop-up camera as an example, this implementation limits ox1 + ox2 + ox3 ≤ 30mm to ensure a small size when the optical lens is stored, avoiding protrusion of the optical lens portion that would affect weight and appearance. By limiting ox1 + ox2 + ox3 ≥ 5mm, the optical lens has a large target surface, which is beneficial for increasing image clarity and improving image quality.
[0026] In one possible implementation, the optical surface of at least one lens in the third lens group is aspherical. This results in different optical powers from the paraxial region to the outer field of view, thereby achieving more uniform image quality, correcting aberrations, and improving overall image quality.
[0027] In one possible implementation, the optical lens includes a liquid lens and / or a liquid crystal lens, which is located in the first lens group. In this implementation, the focusing effect can be enhanced by the liquid lens or the liquid crystal lens to achieve super macro photography. The liquid lens is a structural component that uses a liquid as a lens and changes the focal length by altering the curvature of the liquid. In other implementations, the liquid lens or liquid crystal lens may also be located in the second lens group G2.
[0028] In one possible implementation, the optical lens includes a diffraction element located within the first lens group. In this embodiment, the diffraction element is used to reduce chromatic aberration and decrease the size of the optical lens, thereby improving the imaging quality of the optical lens and achieving miniaturization.
[0029] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: 2mm ≤ ImgH ≤ 10mm, where ImgH is the maximum image height of the optical lens, and the diagonal size of the photosensitive element is twice the maximum image height of the optical lens. This application's embodiment limits the range of ImgH to give the optical lens a large target area.
[0030] In one possible implementation, the optical lens satisfies the following relationship: FOV ≤ 140°, where FOV is the full field of view of the optical lens.
[0031] In one possible implementation, the object distance range of the optical lens is from infinity to 20mm, and the optical lens of this application can produce clear images within the object distance range of infinity to 20mm.
[0032] In one possible implementation, the focusing distance of the second lens group is less than or equal to 50 mm.
[0033] Secondly, this application also provides a camera module, including a photosensitive element and an optical lens as described above, wherein the photosensitive element is located on the image side of the optical lens. The camera module features telephoto, macro, and large aperture capabilities, and can be miniaturized.
[0034] Thirdly, this application also provides an electronic device, including an image processor and the aforementioned camera module, wherein the image processor is communicatively connected to the camera module, and the image processor is used to acquire image data from the camera module and process the image data.

Detailed Implementation
[0036] For ease of understanding, the English abbreviations and related technical terms used in the embodiments of this application will be explained and described below.
[0037] Focal power is equal to the difference between the convergence of the image-side beam and the convergence of the object-side beam; it characterizes the ability of an optical system to deflect light rays.
[0038] A lens or lens group with positive optical power, having a positive focal length, and having the effect of converging light.
[0039] A lens or lens group with negative optical power has a negative focal length and has the effect of diverging light.
[0040] Focal length, also known as focal length, is a measure in optical systems of the convergence or divergence of light. It refers to the perpendicular distance from the optical center of a lens or lens group to the focal plane when a distant object is projected into a sharp image. For thin lenses, the focal length is the distance from the lens center to the image plane; for thick lenses or lens groups, the focal length equals the effective focal length (EFL), which is the distance between the rear principal plane of the lens or lens group and the image plane.
[0041] The object side is defined by the lens, with the side containing the object to be imaged being the boundary.
[0042] Image side, with the lens as the boundary, is the side on which the image of the scene to be imaged is located.
[0043] The object side is defined by the lens; the side where the object is located is called the object side, and the surface of the lens closest to the object side is called the object side surface.
[0044] The image side is the side on which the image of the object is located, with the lens as the boundary. The surface of the lens closest to the image side is called the image side surface.
[0045] The imaging plane is located on the image side of all lenses in an optical lens, and is the surface on which light rays pass through each lens in the optical lens in sequence to form an image.
[0046] The aperture is a device used to control the amount of light passing through the lens and entering the sensor inside the camera body; it is usually located inside the lens.
[0047] Aperture number, also known as F-number (Fno), is a relative value derived from the lens's focal length and entrance pupil diameter (the reciprocal of the relative aperture). A smaller aperture number allows more light to enter the lens in the same unit of time. A larger aperture number results in a shallower depth of field, blurring the background and creating an effect similar to a telephoto lens.
[0048] The Abbe number, also known as the dispersion coefficient, is the ratio of the difference in refractive index of an optical material at different wavelengths, representing the degree of dispersion of the material.
[0049] The field of view (FOV) in optical instruments is the angle between the two edges of the lens, representing the maximum range through which the image of the target object can pass through the lens. The size of the FOV determines the field of view of the optical instrument; a larger FOV results in a wider field of view but a lower optical magnification.
[0050] Aberrations: The paraxial region of an optical system has the properties of an ideal optical system, where paraxial rays emitted from a point on an object intersect the image plane at a single point (i.e., the paraxial image point). However, in reality, light rays passing through different apertures of a lens rarely intersect perfectly at a single point, but rather deviate from the position of the paraxial image point. These differences are collectively referred to as aberrations.
[0051] The optical axis is a line that passes perpendicularly through the center of an ideal lens. When light rays parallel to the optical axis enter a convex lens, the ideal convex lens should have all the light rays converging at a single point behind the lens; this point is called the focal point. As light propagates along the optical axis, its direction of propagation remains unchanged.
[0052] Axial spherical aberration, also known as longitudinal chromatic aberration, positional chromatic aberration, or axial aberration, occurs when a beam of light parallel to the optical axis converges at different positions after passing through a lens. This aberration is called positional chromatic aberration or axial chromatic aberration because the lens images different wavelengths of light at different positions, causing the image-side focal planes of different colors of light to not coincide in the final image, resulting in the dispersion of polychromatic light.
[0053] Distortion, also known as image distortion, refers to the degree of distortion in the image formed by an optical system relative to the object itself. Distortion occurs due to the spherical aberration of the aperture. The height of the intersection point between the principal ray from different fields of view and the Gaussian image plane is not equal to the ideal image height; this difference is the distortion. Therefore, distortion only changes the imaging position of an off-axis object point on the ideal plane, causing a distortion in the image shape, but it does not affect the image's sharpness.
[0054] Astigmatism occurs because the object point is not on the optical axis of the optical system, and the emitted beam of light has an angle with the optical axis. After refraction by a lens, the convergence points of the meridional and sagittal beams are not at the same point. That is, the beam cannot be focused on a single point, resulting in an unclear image, hence astigmatism. The meridional and sagittal beams are the names of beams in two perpendicular planes within a rotationally symmetric optical system.
[0055] Field curvature refers to the difference in optical axis between the position of the sharpest image point after rays from the off-center field of view pass through an optical lens assembly and the position of the sharpest image point in the central field of view. When a lens has field curvature, the intersection of the entire beam does not coincide with the ideal image point. Although a sharp image point can be obtained at each specific point, the entire image plane is a curved surface.
[0056] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiments of this application, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature.
[0057] This application provides an optical lens, a camera module using the optical lens, and an electronic device including the camera module. The optical lens includes a first lens group and a second lens group arranged from the object side to the image side. The first lens group has positive optical power, and the second lens group has negative optical power. The first lens group and / or the second lens group are focusing lens groups. During the focusing process of the optical lens from a distant scene to a close-up scene, the distance between the first lens group and the second lens group increases, and the effective focal length of the optical lens decreases. The optical lens satisfies the following relationship: F2 / EFL > -5, where F2 is the focal length of the second lens group. This refers to the effective focal length of the optical lens. By limiting the optical power of the first and second lens groups and limiting F2 / EFL > -5, this application enables the optical lens to possess characteristics of telephoto, macro, and large aperture, while also achieving miniaturization. Specifically, the first lens group has positive optical power and is used for beam converging, resulting in a smaller diameter of the beam entering the second lens group. The aperture of the second lens group no longer becomes the maximum limitation on the aperture, which is beneficial for the miniaturization of the optical lens and large aperture design, effectively increasing the aperture and achieving a smaller f / 1.5. The second lens group has negative optical power, which is beneficial for telephoto design and for achieving focusing and macro focusing. By limiting F2 / EFL > -5, it is ensured that the second lens group has sufficiently large optical power, reducing the focusing distance, resulting in strong focusing capability, good image quality, and high image sharpness when shooting objects at different distances. The optical lens of this application is capable of both long-distance and close-up macro photography. It has good shooting effect on subjects with an object distance of infinity to 20mm.
[0058] This application provides an electronic device, which can be a mobile phone, tablet computer, laptop computer, wearable device, or other device with photographic or video recording capabilities. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 , Figure 1 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of an electronic device 1000 according to an embodiment of this application. In this embodiment, the electronic device 1000 is a mobile phone. This application describes the electronic device 1000 as a mobile phone.
[0059] Electronic device 1000 includes a housing 100, a camera module 200, and an image processor 300. The camera module 200 and image processor 300 are located within the housing 100, and the camera module 200 and image processor 300 are communicatively connected. The camera module 200 acquires image data and inputs it to the image processor 300, which processes the image data acquired from the camera module 200. The communication connection between the camera module 200 and the image processor 300 can include data transmission via electrical connections such as wiring, or via coupling. It is understood that the camera module 200 and image processor 300 can also be connected via other methods capable of data transmission.
[0060] The image processor 300 optimizes digital image signals through a series of complex mathematical algorithms, and finally transmits the processed signal to the display for display. The image processor 300 can be an image processing chip or a digital signal processing chip (DSP), capable of processing image and digital signals. Its role is to transmit the data obtained by the image sensor of the camera module 200 to the central processing unit in a timely and rapid manner and refresh the image sensor. Therefore, the quality and stability of the DSP chip directly affect the image quality (such as color saturation and sharpness).
[0061] In one specific embodiment, the camera module 200 can be disposed on the back of the electronic device 1000, serving as a rear camera. In other embodiments, the camera module 200 can also be disposed on the front of the electronic device 1000, serving as a front camera. Both the front and rear cameras can be used for selfies or for the photographer to capture images of other objects.
[0062] Understandable Figure 1 The installation position of the camera module 200 in the illustrated embodiment of the electronic device 1000 is merely illustrative, and this application does not strictly limit the installation position of the camera module 200. In some other embodiments, the camera module 200 may also be installed in other locations on the electronic device 1000, such as the upper middle or upper right corner of the electronic device 1000. Alternatively, the camera module 200 may not be mounted on the main body of the phone, but on an auxiliary component that is movable or rotatable relative to the phone, such as an auxiliary component that can extend, retract, or rotate from the main body of the phone.
[0063] In some embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may further include an analog-to-digital converter (also known as an A / D converter). Figure 1 (Not shown). An analog-to-digital converter is connected between the camera module 200 and the image processor 300. The analog-to-digital converter is used to convert the signal generated by the camera module 200 into a digital image signal and transmit it to the image processor 300. The image processor 300 then processes the digital image signal and finally displays the image or video on the monitor.
[0064] In some embodiments, the electronic device 1000 may further include a memory ( Figure 1(Not shown) The memory is communicatively connected to the image processor 300. The image processor 300 processes the digital image signal and then transmits the image to the memory so that the image can be retrieved from the memory and displayed on the monitor when needed later. In some embodiments, the image processor 300 also compresses the processed digital image signal before storing it in the memory to save memory space.
[0065] like Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a camera module 200 according to the first embodiment of this application. The camera module 200 includes an optical lens 10, a filter 20, and a photosensitive element 30. The photosensitive element 30 is located on the image side of the optical lens 10, and when the camera module 200 is working, the scene to be imaged passes through the optical lens 10 and is filtered by the filter 20 before being imaged on the photosensitive element 30. The optical lens 10 affects the image quality and image effect. After the light from the scene passes through the optical lens 10, a clear image is formed on the imaging surface, and the image of the scene is recorded by the photosensitive element 30. It can be understood that the imaging element in the optical lens 10 can be the photosensitive element 30 or other imaging elements, and this application does not limit this. Specifically, the working principle of the camera module 200 is as follows: the light reflected from the scene passes through the optical lens 10 to generate an optical image, which is projected onto the surface of the photosensitive element 30. The photosensitive element 30 converts the optical image into an electrical signal, i.e., an analog image signal, and transmits the converted analog image signal to the image processor 300.
[0066] The photosensitive element 30 is a semiconductor chip containing hundreds of thousands to millions of photodiodes on its surface, which generate electrical charges when exposed to light. The photosensitive element 30 can be a charge-coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) device. CCDs are made using a highly sensitive semiconductor material that converts light into electrical charges. CCDs consist of many photosensitive units, typically measured in megapixels. When light shines on the surface of a CCD, each photosensitive unit reflects a charge onto the component; the signals generated by all the photosensitive units are added together to form a complete image. CMOS devices primarily utilize semiconductors made of silicon and germanium, allowing N-type (negative) and P-type (positive) semiconductors to coexist on the CMOS. The current generated by these complementary effects can be recorded and interpreted by the image sensor as an image.
[0067] The filter 20 is used to filter out unwanted wavelengths of light, preventing the photosensitive element 30 from producing false colors or ripples, thereby improving its effective resolution and color reproduction. For example, the filter 20 can be an infrared filter. In this embodiment, the filter 20 is a separate component. In other embodiments, the filter structure may be omitted, and filtering can be achieved by surface treatment or material treatment of at least one optical element of the optical lens 10. This application does not strictly limit the specific embodiments of the structure or component used to achieve filtering.
[0068] The optical lens 10 of this application can be a pop-up lens or a periscope lens. This application describes the optical lens 10 as a pop-up lens. When the optical lens 10 is a telescopic lens, it has a smaller footprint, freeing up more space inside the electronic device 1000 to accommodate components such as batteries.
[0069] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 2 The camera module 200 shown is in a non-functional state. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The diagram shows the structure of the camera module 200 in one working state. Figure 4 for Figure 2 The diagram shows the structure of the camera module 200 in another working state. Figure 3 for Figure 2 The image shows the camera module 200 in its long-range working state at infinity. Figure 4 for Figure 2 The image shows the close-up working state of the camera module during macro shooting at 200.
[0070] In this application, the optical lens 10 includes a first lens group G1 and a second lens group G2 arranged sequentially from the object side to the image side. The first lens group G1 has positive optical power, and the second lens group G2 has negative optical power. The first lens group G1 includes at least one lens with optical power, and the second lens group G2 includes at least one lens with optical power.
[0071] The first lens group G1 and / or the second lens group G2 are focusing lens groups. Exemplarily, during focusing, only the first lens group G1 can move along the optical axis O for focusing, only the second lens group G2 can move along the optical axis O for focusing, or both the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 can move along the optical axis O for focusing. During the focusing process of the optical lens 10 from a distant view to a close-up view, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 increases, and the effective focal length of the optical lens 10 decreases. In other words, the focal length of the optical lens 10 at a macro distance is less than the focal length at an infinity distance. During the focusing process of the optical lens 10 from a distant view to a close-up view, the second lens group G2 can move towards the image side along the optical axis O, or the first lens group G1 can move towards the object side along the optical axis O, or the first lens group G1 can move towards the object side along the optical axis O and the second lens group G2 can move towards the image side along the optical axis O, to increase the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2, achieving a macro focusing effect.
[0072] Optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: F2 / EFL > -5, where F2 is the focal length of the second lens group G2. F2 / EFL is the effective focal length of the optical lens 10. For example, the value of F2 / EFL can be -1, -1.5, -2, -3, or -4, etc.
[0073] It should be noted that when the object distance is at infinity, the optical lens 10 of this application is a fixed focal length lens. When the object distance is switched from infinity to macro, the focal length of the optical lens 10 becomes smaller.
[0074] This application, by limiting the optical power of the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 and limiting F2 / EFL > -5, enables the optical lens 10 to possess the characteristics of telephoto, macro, and large aperture, while also achieving miniaturization. The first lens group G1 has a positive optical power and is used for beam converging, resulting in a smaller diameter of the beam entering the second lens group G2. The aperture of the second lens group G2 is no longer a maximum limitation on the aperture size, which is beneficial for the miniaturization and large aperture design of the optical lens 10, effectively increasing the aperture size and achieving a smaller aperture number. The second lens group G2 has a negative optical power, which is beneficial for achieving a telephoto design and for enabling focusing and macro focusing. It has a short focusing throw and strong focusing capability. By limiting F2 / EFL > -5, it is ensured that the second lens group G2 has a sufficiently large optical power, reducing the focusing throw, resulting in strong focusing capability, good image quality, and high image sharpness when shooting objects at different distances. The optical lens 10 with telephoto capabilities has a shallow depth of field, and the optical lens 10 with a large aperture also has a shallow depth of field, which is beneficial for achieving a background blur effect when the object distance is large. The optical lens 10 of this application can not only perform long-distance shooting, but also close-up macro shooting. The optical lens 10 of this application has good shooting effect on subjects with an object distance of infinity to 20mm. Among them, when performing macro shooting on objects with an object distance of 20mm to 50mm, the optical lens 10 of this application has a short focusing distance and high image quality.
[0075] According to applied optics theory, when two lens groups with focal lengths Fa and Fb are arranged at an interval d, the focal length F of the combined system of the two lens groups satisfies: 1 / F = 1 / Fa + 1 / Fb - d / (Fa × Fb). In this embodiment, since the focal length of the first lens group G1 is positive and the focal length of the second lens group G2 is negative, when the second lens group G2 moves towards the image side, or when the first lens group G1 moves towards the object side, the interval d between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 increases. Therefore, the combined focal length of the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 decreases. Thus, in this embodiment, when the second lens group G2 moves towards the image side, or when the first lens group G1 moves towards the object side, the combined focal length of the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 tends to decrease, which is beneficial for achieving macro photography.
[0076] In the embodiments of this application, a reasonable configuration of the F2 value helps to compensate for image plane drift caused by changes in the object plane during macro focusing with a small displacement, thereby indirectly suppressing the aberration deterioration caused by focusing.
[0077] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 includes a third lens group G3 located on the image side of the second lens group G2. The third lens group G3 can have positive or negative optical power and includes at least one lens with optical power. During focusing, the position of the third lens group G3 can remain unchanged, or it can move along the optical axis O. The third lens group G3 is used to correct field curvature and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens 10. For example, the third lens group G3 can have negative optical power. In this case, the third lens group G3 acts as a field-planing lens, which can compensate for some of the field curvature changes caused by focusing, thereby greatly enhancing the focusing capability of the second lens group G2. This results in a stronger focusing capability of the optical lens 10 and also helps to achieve uniform image quality from infinity to finite distance, leading to higher imaging quality of the camera module 200. In other embodiments, when the third lens group G3 has positive optical power, it is to match the special structural requirements such as different movement directions of the second lens group G2 during autofocus.
[0078] See also Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a simplified structural diagram showing the optical lens in different states. When the camera module 200 switches from a non-operating state (stored state) to an operating state (far-view state or near-view state), the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 move along the optical axis O towards the object side, while the third lens group G3 remains stationary. When the camera module 200 switches from an operating state to a non-operating state, the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 move along the optical axis O towards the image side, while the third lens group G3 remains stationary. In other embodiments, the third lens group G3 may also move towards either the object side or the image side.
[0079] When the camera module 200 switches from a distant view to a close-up view, the second lens group G2 moves along the optical axis O towards the image side, while the first lens group G1 and the third lens group G3 remain stationary to achieve focusing. In other embodiments, when the camera module 200 switches from a distant view to a close-up view, the first lens group G1 may also move along the optical axis O towards the object side, and the third lens group G3 may also move along the optical axis O towards either the object side or the image side.
[0080] When the camera module 200 switches from a near-field state to a far-field state, the second lens group G2 moves along the optical axis O towards the object side, while the first lens group G1 and the third lens group G3 remain stationary to achieve focusing. In other embodiments, if the first lens group G1 moves along the optical axis O towards the object side when the camera module 200 switches from a far-field state to a near-field state, then when the camera module 200 switches from a near-field state to a far-field state, the first lens group G1 may also move along the optical axis O towards the image side. The third lens group G3 may move along the optical axis O towards the object side or the image side, or it may remain stationary.
[0081] In some embodiments, the first lens group G1 includes at least two lenses, and the at least two lenses in the first lens group G1 have different Abbe numbers. Exemplarily, the first lens group G1 includes a first lens, a second lens, and a third lens, and the first lens, the second lens, and the third lens each have different Abbe numbers. Chromatic aberration correction requires lenses with different Abbe numbers; therefore, by setting the Abbe numbers of the different lenses in the first lens group G1 to be different, the impact of chromatic aberration on image quality is reduced. In other embodiments, the different lenses in the first lens group G1 may have the same Abbe number, or some lenses may have the same Abbe number while others have different Abbe numbers; this application does not limit this.
[0082] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies: Vd1 ≥ 18, where Vd1 is the Abbe number of the first lens. For example, the Abbe number of the first lens L1 can be 30, 40, or 50, etc. By limiting the Abbe number of the first lens to be greater than 18, a larger Abbe number is ensured for the first lens group G1. In this case, the first lens group G1 can ensure that excessive residual chromatic aberration is not generated, reducing the design difficulty of the lens group located on its image side.
[0083] In some embodiments, the second lens group G2 includes at least two lenses with different Abbe numbers to correct chromatic aberration and improve image quality. In other embodiments, the different lenses in the second lens group G2 may have the same Abbe number, or some lenses may have the same Abbe number while others have different Abbe numbers; this application does not limit this.
[0084] In some embodiments, at least one lens in the first lens group G1 is made of glass. Glass lenses are beneficial for improving image quality, reducing chromatic aberration and temperature drift effects in the optical lens 10, and avoiding the influence of temperature changes on the focal length of the optical lens 10. Understandably, the lenses in the first lens group G1, the second lens group G2, and the third lens group G3 can all be made of glass, or all of them can be made of plastic, or a combination of both. Glass lenses are beneficial for improving image quality and reducing chromatic aberration and temperature drift effects, while plastic lenses can reduce the weight and cost of the optical lens 10.
[0085] In some embodiments, the first lens group G1 includes a first lens L1. The near-optical axis region of the object-side surface of the first lens is convex, which is beneficial for converging the light beam. This results in a smaller diameter of the light beam entering the second lens group G2, thereby effectively increasing the aperture of the optical lens 10 while maintaining the module size. The optical lens 10 has a smaller aperture value. The near-optical axis region of the object-side surface of the first lens L1 refers to 1 / 50 of the aperture height of the object-side surface of the first lens L1. The object-side surface of the first lens L1 can be spherical, which helps reduce manufacturing difficulty; it can also be aspherical, increasing design freedom and improving image quality.
[0086] In some embodiments, the first lens group G1 includes a first lens L1, a second lens L2, and a third lens L3 arranged from the object side to the image side. The first lens L1 has positive optical power, the second lens L2 has negative optical power, and the third lens L3 has positive optical power. In this embodiment, the reasonable configuration of the optical power of the first lens L1, the second lens L2, and the third lens L3 is beneficial for the design of a large aperture, increases the light transmission diameter, and ensures good image quality.
[0087] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies: 0.5 ≤ TTL / EFL ≤ 5, where TTL is the distance along the optical axis from the object side of the first lens in the first lens group to the imaging plane when in the working state. The first lens L1 is the lens closest to the object side in the first lens group G1. Exemplarily, the value of TTL / EFL can be 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, or 4, etc. Limiting the range of TTL / EFL is beneficial for miniaturization of the optical lens 10.
[0088] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the condition that F1 / EFL ≤ 5, where F1 is the focal length of the first lens group G1. Exemplarily, the value of F1 / EFL can be 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, or 3.5, etc. By limiting the appropriate range of F1 / EFL, the optical power of the first lens group G1 can be reasonably configured, the aperture number can be reduced, which is beneficial for large aperture design, increases the light transmission diameter, and ensures good image quality.
[0089] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the following condition: 1mm ≤ φ1 ≤ 30mm, where φ1 is the maximum effective area diameter of the first lens group G1. For example, the value of φ1 can be 4mm, 10mm, 20mm, 22mm, or 25mm, etc. The larger the maximum effective area diameter of the first lens group G1, the larger the target surface size of the optical lens 10 can be, giving the optical lens 10 a large target surface characteristic, which is beneficial for increasing image sharpness and improving image quality.
[0090] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the following condition: 1mm ≤ φ2 ≤ 30mm, where φ2 is the maximum effective area diameter of the second lens group G2. For example, the value of φ2 can be 4mm, 10mm, 20mm, 22mm, or 25mm, etc. The larger the maximum effective area diameter of the second lens group G2, the larger the target surface size of the optical lens 10 can be, giving the optical lens 10 a large target surface characteristic, which is beneficial for increasing image sharpness and improving image quality.
[0091] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: 0.3mm ≤ h1 ≤ 50mm, where h1 is the maximum pop-up height of the first lens group G1. The maximum pop-up height of the first lens group G1 refers to the maximum distance the first lens group G1 moves when the optical lens 10 switches from a non-working state to a working state. For example, the value of h1 can be 1mm, 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, or 40mm, etc. In the embodiments of this application, the maximum pop-up height of the first lens group G1 is small, that is, the displacement of the first lens group G1 is small. This reduces the power requirement of the motor, reduces the size of the motor used to drive the movement of the first lens group, and makes it easier to miniaturize the camera module 200.
[0092] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: 0.3mm ≤ h2 ≤ 50mm, where h2 is the maximum pop-up height of the second lens group G2. The maximum pop-up height of the second lens group G2 refers to the maximum distance the second lens group G2 moves when the optical lens 10 switches from a non-working state to a working state. For example, the value of h2 can be 1mm, 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, or 40mm, etc. In the embodiments of this application, the maximum pop-up height of the second lens group G2 is small, that is, the displacement of the second lens group is small. This reduces the power requirement of the motor, decreases the size of the motor used to drive the movement of the second lens group G2, and makes it easier to miniaturize the camera module 200.
[0093] In some embodiments, the object distance range of the optical lens 10 is from infinity to 20mm. The optical lens 10 of this application can produce clear images within the object distance range of infinity to 20mm. It should be noted that in this application, infinity means an object distance greater than or equal to 2500mm, and macro means an object distance less than or equal to 200mm. For example, this application can achieve macro photography with an object distance of 50mm or 20mm.
[0094] In some embodiments, the focusing stroke of the second lens group G2 is less than or equal to 50mm. If the focusing stroke of the second lens group G2 is greater than 50mm, the power requirement of the motor is high. In the embodiments of this application, by limiting the focusing stroke of the second lens group G2 to less than or equal to 50mm, the power requirement of the motor is low.
[0095] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 includes a variable aperture, the size of which decreases during the focusing process of the optical lens 10 from a distant view to a close-up view. When shooting distant scenes, the variable aperture can be adjusted to increase the aperture size, resulting in a shallow depth of field and good bokeh, which is beneficial for distant shots. In macro photography, to improve image sharpness, a bokeh effect is not advisable; therefore, the variable aperture needs to be reduced to increase the depth of field and improve the quality of macro photography.
[0096] The variable aperture can be located at any position of the first lens group G1, or at any position of the second lens group G2, or at any position between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2. This application does not limit this.
[0097] The variable aperture can be a spacer structure or a variable fan blade structure; alternatively, it can be achieved through a surface coating process, such as coating a light-shielding material onto the lens to form the variable aperture. The position of the variable aperture can be fixed or variable. For example, the position of the variable aperture can be adjusted according to focusing conditions to be located between different lenses.
[0098] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: 0.5 ≤ Fno ≤ 8, where Fno is the aperture number of the optical lens 10. A smaller Fno corresponds to a larger aperture, and vice versa. For example, the value of Fno can be 0.8, 1.6, 1.8, 2.4, or 4, etc. When shooting distant scenes, adjusting the variable aperture can decrease Fno to obtain a larger aperture, resulting in better bokeh, which is beneficial for distant scenes. When shooting macro scenes, increasing Fno and decreasing the aperture can improve the quality of macro photography.
[0099] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: 5mm ≤ ox1 + ox2 + ox3 ≤ 30mm, where ox1 is the thickness of the first lens group G1 on the optical axis, ox2 is the thickness of the second lens group G2 on the optical axis, and ox3 is the thickness of the third lens group G3 on the optical axis. For example, the value of ox1 + ox2 + ox3 can be 10mm, 15mm, or 20mm, etc. The optical lens 10 of this application can be used in pop-up camera modules or periscope camera modules. Taking a pop-up camera as an example, this application's implementation limits ox1 + ox2 + ox3 ≤ 30mm to ensure that the optical lens 10 has a small size when stored, avoiding protrusion of the optical lens 10, which would affect weight and appearance. By limiting ox1 + ox2 + ox3 ≥ 5mm, the optical lens 10 has a large target surface, which is beneficial for increasing image clarity and improving image quality.
[0100] In some embodiments, the optical surface of at least one lens in the third lens group is aspherical. This results in different optical powers from the paraxial region to the outer field of view, thereby achieving more uniform image quality, correcting aberrations, and improving image quality. And / or, the optical surface of at least one lens of the optical lens 10 can be a freeform surface to correct aberrations. Wherein, the aspherical surface is a surface that is rotationally symmetrical about the optical axis O; the freeform surface may have no axis of symmetry, or it may be symmetrical along a certain direction, or symmetrical along two directions.
[0101] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 includes a liquid lens and / or a liquid crystal lens, which are located in the first lens group G1. In this embodiment, the focusing effect can be enhanced by the liquid lens or the liquid crystal lens to achieve super macro shooting. The liquid lens is a structural component that uses liquid as a lens and changes the focal length by altering the curvature of the liquid. In other embodiments, the liquid lens or liquid crystal lens may also be located in the second lens group G2.
[0102] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 includes a diffraction element located in the first lens group. In this embodiment, the diffraction element is used to reduce chromatic aberration and decrease the size of the optical lens, thereby improving the imaging quality of the optical lens 10 and achieving miniaturization of the optical lens 10.
[0103] In some embodiments, at least one lens of the optical lens 10 can employ a non-circular shape technique to reduce the size of the optical lens 10. For example, at least one lens in the first lens group G1 can have a notch for reducing the height of the lens. The notch can be implemented using an I-CUT process. By providing a notch for reducing the height of the lens on at least one lens of the first lens group G1, the size of the optical lens 10 in the height direction can be effectively reduced, making the optical lens 10 more suitable for miniaturized electronic devices and increasing the applicability of the optical lens 10. In addition, since the lens reduces its height by a notch, the lens can have a larger light-transmitting aperture, thereby increasing the light transmission of the optical lens 10 and resulting in better image quality. Furthermore, non-circular shape techniques can also be used on the structural support components of the lens, such as the lens barrel and spacers, to reduce the size of the optical lens.
[0104] In some embodiments, the peripheral surface or support surface of at least one lens of the optical lens 10 may be blackened or roughened to eliminate stray light and improve image quality. Blackening may involve coating or plating with a matte material such as black ink, or applying a film. Roughening primarily increases surface roughness. Of course, in other embodiments, the optical lens 10 may also eliminate stray light in other ways; this application does not strictly limit this approach.
[0105] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: 2mm ≤ ImgH ≤ 10mm, where ImgH is the maximum image height of the optical lens, and the diagonal size of the photosensitive element is twice the maximum image height of the optical lens. By limiting the range of ImgH, the embodiments of this application enable the optical lens to have a large target area, resulting in high image clarity.
[0106] In some embodiments, the optical lens 10 satisfies the relationship: FOV≤140°, where FOV is the full field of view of the optical lens 10.
[0107] In some embodiments, the multiple lenses of the optical lens 10 are assembled using an active alignment (AA) process to ensure assembly accuracy.
[0108] In some embodiments, when the object-side and / or image-side surfaces of some lenses in the optical lens 10 are aspherical, the object-side and / or image-side surfaces of some lenses can be defined using, but not limited to, the following aspherical formulas:
[0109] Where z is a point on the aspherical surface at a distance r from the optical axis, and its relative distance to the tangent plane at the intersection point on the optical axis; r is the perpendicular distance between a point on the aspherical curve and the optical axis; c is the curvature; k is the cone coefficient; α i Let be the i-th order aspherical coefficient.
[0110] The following will illustrate this through four embodiments and in combination. Figures 2 to 22 Some specific, non-limiting examples of this application are described in more detail below.
[0111] First Embodiment Please refer to the following: Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The camera module 200 includes an optical lens 10, a filter 20, and a photosensitive element 30. In this embodiment, the optical lens 10 includes an aperture 40, a first lens group G1, a second lens group G2, and a third lens group G3 arranged sequentially from the object side to the image side. The first lens group G1 has positive optical power and includes a first lens L1, a second lens L2, and a third lens L3. The second lens group G2 has negative optical power and includes a fourth lens L4 and a fifth lens L5. The third lens group G3 has positive optical power and includes a sixth lens L6. The first lens L1 to the sixth lens L6 are arranged sequentially from the object side to the image side. The aperture 40 is a variable aperture, and its size can be adjusted as needed. The aperture 40 is located on the object side of the first lens L1. In other embodiments, the aperture 40 can also be in other positions, which is not limited in this application.
[0112] In this embodiment, the first lens L1 has positive optical power and includes an object-side surface S1 and an image-side surface S2; the second lens L2 has negative optical power and includes an object-side surface S3 and an image-side surface S4; the third lens L3 has positive optical power and includes an object-side surface S5 and an image-side surface S6; the fourth lens L4 has negative optical power and includes an object-side surface S7 and an image-side surface S8; the fifth lens L5 has positive optical power and includes an object-side surface S9 and an image-side surface S10; and the sixth lens L6 has positive optical power and includes an object-side surface S11 and an image-side surface S12. Furthermore, a filter 20 is disposed after the sixth lens L6 and includes an object-side surface S13 and an image-side surface S14. Imaging plane S15 ( Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 (Not marked) Located on the image side of all lenses in the optical lens 10, the imaging surface S15 is the cross surface on which the image is formed after the light passes through each lens in the optical lens 10 in sequence.
[0113] In this embodiment, the first lens L1 is made of glass, and the second lens L2 to the sixth lens L6 are made of plastic. In other embodiments, the lenses in the first lens group G1, the second lens group G2, and the third lens group G3 may all be made of glass or all of plastic, or may include both glass and plastic materials; this application does not limit this.
[0114] In this embodiment, when the camera module 200 switches from a non-working state (storage state) to a working state (far-view state or close-view state), the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 move along the optical axis O towards the object side, while the third lens group G3 remains stationary; when the camera module 200 switches from a working state to a non-working state, the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 move along the optical axis O towards the image side, while the third lens group G3 remains stationary, so that the overall size of the camera module 200 is low and does not cause protrusions in the corresponding parts of the electronic device 1000.
[0115] In this embodiment, when the camera module 200 switches from a distant view to a close view, the second lens group G2 moves along the optical axis O towards the image side, while the first lens group G1 and the third lens group G3 remain stationary to achieve focusing.
[0116] In this embodiment, when the camera module 200 switches from a close-up view to a distant view, the second lens group G2 moves along the optical axis O towards the object side, while the first lens group G1 and the third lens group G3 remain stationary to achieve focusing.
[0117] Please refer to Table 1a, which shows the radius of curvature, thickness, refractive index (Nd), and Abbe number of each lens and filter 20 of the optical lens 10 in the first embodiment when operating in both distant and close-up modes. The thickness includes the thickness of the lens itself and the spacing between the lenses, and the Abbe number is the dispersion coefficient.
[0118] Table 1a
[0119] In Table 1a, 0.1068 / 2.3500 means that at an object distance of infinity, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 on the optical axis is 0.1068 mm, and at an object distance of 50 mm, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 on the optical axis is 2.3500 mm. 4.6882 / 2.4450 means that at an object distance of infinity, the distance between the second lens group G2 and the third lens group G3 on the optical axis is 4.6882 mm, and at an object distance of 50 mm, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 on the optical axis is 2.4450 mm.
[0120] Please refer to Table 1b, which shows the aspherical coefficients of each lens in the optical lens 10 of the first embodiment.
[0121] Table 1b
[0122] In this embodiment, the object-side surface and image-side surface of the first lens L1 to the sixth lens L6 are both aspherical surfaces, which can be limited by, but not limited to, the following aspherical surface formula:
[0123] Where z is a point on the aspherical surface at a distance r from the optical axis, and its relative distance to the tangent plane at the intersection point on the optical axis; r is the perpendicular distance between a point on the aspherical curve and the optical axis; c is the curvature; k is the cone coefficient; α i Let be the i-th order aspherical coefficient.
[0124] Please refer to Table 1c, which shows the basic parameters of the optical lens 10 in the first embodiment. In Table 1c, f1 to f6 are the focal lengths of the first lens L1 to the sixth lens L6, respectively; F1 to F3 are the focal lengths of the first lens group G1 to the third lens group G3, respectively; ImgH is the maximum image height of the optical lens 10, which is half the diagonal size of the photosensitive element; and Fno is the aperture number.
[0125] Table 1c
[0126] In this embodiment, when the optical lens 10 switches from a distant view to a close-up view, for example, when focusing at a macro distance of 50mm, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 increases from 0.1068mm to 2.3500mm. The focusing distance of the second lens group G2 is 2.2432mm, which is short and provides good focusing effect, thus achieving excellent macro shooting results. In this embodiment, macro focusing and shooting are achieved by moving the second lens group G2 towards the image side, while the first lens group G1 remains stationary. This allows macro shooting to be achieved without increasing the size of the optical lens 10.
[0127] Please see Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a characterization diagram of the optical performance of the optical lens 10 in the first embodiment at an object distance of infinity.
[0128] in, Figure 6 This includes the axial chromatic aberration curve, astigmatism curve, and distortion diagram of the optical lens 10 at an infinity object distance. The axial chromatic aberration curve includes spherical aberration curves corresponding to different wavelengths of the system (650nm, 610nm, 555nm, 510nm, and 470nm are shown in the illustration). Its physical meaning is the deviation of light of the corresponding wavelength emitted at a 0-degree field of view from the ideal image point after passing through the optical system. The horizontal axis represents the deviation along the optical axis, and the vertical axis represents the normalized coordinates at the pupil. Figure 6 The values are all relatively small, indicating that the on-axis aberrations (spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, etc.) of optical lens 10 are well corrected. The astigmatism field curve is used to illustrate the deviation of the convergence point of the fine beam from the ideal imaging plane in different fields of view. The solid line S represents the beam in the sagittal direction, and the dashed line T represents the beam in the meridional direction. The horizontal axis represents the deviation value along the optical axis, and the vertical axis represents the corresponding field of view. When a value in a certain field of view is too large, the image quality of that field of view is poor or there are advanced aberrations. Figure 6 The field curvature in both directions shown is small, indicating that the system has good depth of focus. The distortion diagram is used to characterize the relative deviation between the beam convergence point (actual image height) and the ideal image height in different fields of view. Figure 6 The distortion shown is all within 2%, which ensures that there is no obvious deformation in the image.

[0189] Table 4c
[0190] In this embodiment, when the optical lens 10 switches from a distant view to a close-up view, for example, when focusing at a macro distance of 50mm, the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 is reduced from 2.3019mm to 0.1443mm. The focusing distance of the second lens group G2 is 2.1576mm, which is short and provides good focusing effect, enabling excellent macro shooting results. In this embodiment, when the optical lens 10 switches from a distant view to a close-up view, both the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 move, thus increasing the degree of freedom and helping to compensate for image plane drift caused by changes in the object plane during macro focusing, resulting in better macro focusing effect.
[0191] Please see Figure 21 , Figure 21 This is a characterization diagram of the optical performance of the optical lens 10 in the fourth embodiment at an object distance of infinity.
[0192] in, Figure 21 This includes the axial chromatic aberration curve, astigmatism curve, and distortion diagram of the optical lens 10 at an infinity object distance. The axial chromatic aberration curve includes spherical aberration curves corresponding to different wavelengths of the system (650nm, 610nm, 555nm, 510nm, and 470nm are shown in the illustration). Its physical meaning is the deviation of light of the corresponding wavelength emitted at a 0-degree field of view from the ideal image point after passing through the optical system. The horizontal axis represents the deviation along the optical axis, and the vertical axis represents the normalized coordinates at the pupil. Figure 21The values are all relatively small, indicating that the on-axis aberrations (spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, etc.) of optical lens 10 are well corrected. The astigmatism field curve is used to illustrate the deviation of the convergence point of the fine beam from the ideal imaging plane in different fields of view. The solid line S represents the beam in the sagittal direction, and the dashed line T represents the beam in the meridional direction. The horizontal axis represents the deviation value along the optical axis, and the vertical axis represents the corresponding field of view. When a value in a certain field of view is too large, the image quality of that field of view is poor or there are advanced aberrations. Figure 21 The field curvature in both directions shown is small, indicating that the system has good depth of focus. The distortion diagram is used to characterize the relative deviation between the beam convergence point (actual image height) and the ideal image height in different fields of view. Figure 21 The distortion shown is all within 3%, which ensures that there is no obvious deformation in the image.
[0193] Please see Figure 22 , Figure 22 This is a characterization diagram of the optical performance of the optical lens 10 in the fourth embodiment at an object distance of 50mm.
[0194] in, Figure 22 This includes the axial chromatic aberration curve, astigmatism curve, and distortion curve of the optical lens 10 at an object distance of 50mm. The axial chromatic aberration curve includes spherical aberration curves corresponding to different wavelengths of the system (illustrated as 650nm, 610nm, 555nm, 510nm, and 470nm). Figure 22 The values are all relatively small, indicating that the on-axis aberrations (spherical aberration, chromatic aberration, etc.) of optical lens 10 are well corrected. The astigmatism curve is used to illustrate the deviation of the convergence point of the fine beam from the ideal imaging plane in different fields of view. The solid line S represents the sagittal beam, and the dashed line T represents the meridional beam. When a value in a certain field of view is too large, the image quality of that field of view is poor or contains advanced aberrations. Figure 22 The field curvature in both directions shown is small, indicating that the system has good depth of focus. The distortion diagram is used to characterize the relative deviation between the beam convergence point (actual image height) and the ideal image height in different fields of view. Figure 22 The distortion shown is all within 8%, which ensures that there is no obvious deformation in the image.
[0195] according to Figure 21 and Figure 22 It can be seen that the optical lens 10 given in the fourth embodiment can achieve good imaging quality at both infinity and macro distances of 50mm.
[0196] In other embodiments, when the camera module 200 switches from a distant view to a close view, the third lens group G3 can also move toward the object side or the image side.
[0197] In other embodiments, when the camera module 200 switches from a close-up view to a distant view, the third lens group G3 can also move toward the object side or the image side.
[0198] During the focusing process of the optical lens 10 from a distant view to a close-up view, the second lens group G2 can move towards the image side, or the first lens group G1 can move towards the object side, or the first lens group G1 can move towards the object side and the second lens group G2 can move towards the image side, thereby increasing the distance between the first lens group G1 and the second lens group G2 to achieve a macro focusing effect. The optical lens 10 of this application has the characteristics of long focal length, large target surface, macro capability, and large light transmission aperture, and can be miniaturized.
