[0085] In this paper, the paraxial region refers to the region near the optical axis. If the lens surface is convex and the location of the convexity is not defined, it means that the lens surface is convex at least in the paraxial region; if the lens surface is concave and the location of the concaveness is not defined, it means that the lens surface is concave at least in the paraxial region. The surface of each lens closest to the first side is called the first side surface of the lens, the surface of each lens closest to the second side is called the second side surface of the lens, and the surface of an optical lens closest to the second side is called the second side surface of the optical lens.

[0090] The features, principles and other aspects of this application are described in detail below.
[0091] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens includes, for example, eight lenses with optical power, namely a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, a sixth lens, a seventh lens, and an eighth lens. These eight lenses are arranged sequentially along the optical axis from the first side to the second side.
[0092] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens provided in this application can be used as, for example, a vehicle-mounted lens or a lidar receiver lens. In this case, the first side of the optical lens can be the object side, and the second side can be the image side. Light from the object side can be imaged on the image side. The second side of the optical lens can be provided with an imaging surface.
[0093] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens provided in this application can be used as, for example, a projection lens or a lidar transmitter lens. In this case, the first side of the optical lens can be the object side, and the second side can be the light source side. Light from the light source side is projected onto the object side after passing through the optical lens, forming an image or illuminating an area on the object side. The second side of the optical lens can be provided with the light source surface of the optical lens.
[0094] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens may further include a photosensitive element disposed on the second side. Optionally, the photosensitive element disposed on the second side may be a photocoupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor device (CMOS).
[0095] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens has positive optical power, a first convex side surface, and a second concave side surface. The positive optical power and convex first side surface of the first lens allow for the collection of more light into the rear optical system. The concave second side surface of the first lens facilitates smoother light entry into the rear optical system, contributing to the system's low sensitivity and small aperture characteristics. Furthermore, the convex design of the first side surface of the first lens also helps to reduce the impact of water droplets on imaging during practical applications.
[0096] In an exemplary embodiment, the first lens may preferably use a high refractive index material, which is beneficial for reducing the front port diameter and improving the imaging quality.
[0097] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens has negative optical power, with a concave first side and a convex second side. The negative optical power of the second lens allows it to collect light emitted from the first lens, appropriately diffusing the light and providing a larger light-receiving surface for the rear optical system, thus increasing image illumination. The concave-convex shape of the second lens smoothly transitions light from the first lens to the rear optical system. Specifically, the concave design of the first side of the second lens, in conjunction with the concave second side of the first lens, ensures that light emitted from the first lens smoothly enters the first side of the second lens, improving the sensitivity of both lenses. The convex second side of the second lens also facilitates a smooth transition of light to the rear optical system while appropriately converging and reducing the rear aperture.
[0098] In an exemplary embodiment, the second lens has negative optical power, with both its first and second sides being concave. The negative optical power of the second lens allows it to collect light emitted from the first lens. The concave shape of the second lens enables rapid collection of light entering the optical system after passing through the first lens, facilitating proper light diffusion, increasing the aperture diameter, and improving the light transmission aperture, thus achieving a small FNO and high luminous flux in the system. The concave design of the first side of the second lens, in conjunction with the concave shape of the second side of the first lens, allows light emitted from the first lens to smoothly enter the first side of the second lens, improving the sensitivity of both lenses. The concave shape of the second side of the second lens, with a large radius of curvature, allows light to be appropriately lifted, enabling peripheral light to reach a higher imaging position, reducing light energy loss caused by excessive angle between the light reaching the image plane and the chip's principal ray, and improving the illumination of the edge field of view.
[0099] In an exemplary embodiment, the third lens has negative optical power, with a concave first side and a convex second side. The negative optical power of the third lens further diffuses the light from the second lens, appropriately adjusting the light path; the concave-convex shape of the third lens allows the light passing through the first lens to smoothly transition to the rear optical system. The concave design of the first side of the third lens enables it to collect as much light as possible from the peripheral field of view, reducing light energy loss; the convex design of the second side of the third lens allows the light to smoothly transition to the rear optical system, while also appropriately converging and reducing the rear aperture.
[0100] In an exemplary embodiment, the third lens has negative optical power, with its first and second sides being concave. The negative optical power of the third lens allows it to collect light entering through the front lens and, as much as possible, light exiting through the second lens. This facilitates proper light diffusion, increases the aperture diameter, and enhances the light transmission aperture, achieving a small FNO and high luminous flux in the system. The concave design of the first side of the third lens allows it to collect as much light as possible from the second lens, reducing light energy loss. The concave second side of the third lens, with a large radius of curvature, allows light to be appropriately raised, enabling peripheral light to reach a higher imaging position. This reduces light energy loss caused by excessive angles between the light reaching the image plane and the chip's principal ray, thus improving the illumination of the edge field of view.
[0101] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth lens has positive optical power, with both its first and second sides being convex. The positive optical power of the fourth lens facilitates light convergence. The convex design of the first side of the fourth lens compresses the height of light rays incident through the third lens, while the convex design of the second side further converges the light rays exiting the third lens, allowing them to smoothly enter the rear optical system. This enables as much light from the peripheral field of view as possible to pass through the aperture and enter the rear system quickly, increasing overall light transmission and illumination. It also helps reduce the front aperture of the lens and, when used in conjunction with the focal length of the fifth lens, facilitates adjusting the optical path difference between light rays from different fields of view, achieving high resolution.
[0102] In an exemplary embodiment, the fourth lens has positive optical power, with its first side being convex and its second side being concave. The positive optical power of the fourth lens facilitates light convergence. The convex-concave shape of the fourth lens allows light to converge to a certain extent, promoting a smoother transition of light paths throughout the system and reducing sensitivity. The convex design of the first side of the fourth lens allows for more efficient light convergence and reduces defocusing between different fields of view, thus improving resolution. The concave design of the second side of the fourth lens allows for the collection of as much light as possible from the peripheral fields of view, reducing light loss and improving illumination at the edges. Simultaneously, it alters the edge light path, enabling a reduction in the lens's front aperture and achieving a miniaturized design.
[0103] In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth lens has positive optical power, and its first side surface is convex, as are its second side surface. The positive optical power of the fifth lens facilitates light convergence, and its convex-convex shape further converges the divergent light rays from the second and third lenses, promoting a smooth transition of light paths throughout the system and reducing sensitivity. Furthermore, the convex-convex shape allows light rays to converge towards the image plane while adjusting aberrations in each field of view, thus improving resolving power.
[0104] In an exemplary embodiment, the fifth lens has positive optical power, with its first side being convex and its second side being concave. The positive optical power of the fifth lens facilitates light convergence. The convex-concave meniscus shape of the fifth lens further converges light rays diverging from the second and third lenses, promoting a smooth transition of light paths throughout the system and reducing sensitivity. The convex design of the first side of the fifth lens allows light rays to converge within the lens, reducing the distribution range of light rays from the same field of view on the second side and weakening the coupling relationship between light rays from different fields of view on the second side. This facilitates better correction of light rays from each field of view and improves the system's resolving power. The concave design of the second side of the fifth lens ensures a smooth transition of light paths, further enhancing resolving power.
[0105] In an exemplary embodiment, the sixth lens has negative optical power, with its first side being convex and its second side being concave. The negative optical power and the crescent-shaped (convex-concave) design of the sixth lens (the shapes of the first and second sides are nearly concentric circles) facilitate a smooth transition of converging light rays from the large aperture at the front end. The convex first side of the sixth lens helps collect more light from the edge fields of view; the concave second side of the sixth lens allows for a smooth transition of outgoing light rays, which is beneficial for correcting light rays in each field of view. Furthermore, the sixth lens primarily serves to smooth the transition, reducing its ability to diverge light, allowing its F6 value to approach infinity.
[0106] In an exemplary embodiment, the seventh lens has positive optical power, with a convex first side and a concave second side. The seventh lens, with its positive optical power and convex-concave meniscus shape, allows for a smooth transition of converging light rays from the large aperture at the front end. Simultaneously, appropriate light convergence reduces the back focal length to some extent, thereby reducing the overall system length. The convex first side of the seventh lens facilitates the collection of more light; the concave second side allows for a smooth transition of outgoing light rays, which is beneficial for correcting light rays in different fields of view.
[0107] In an exemplary embodiment, the seventh lens has negative optical power, with its first side surface being convex and its second side surface being concave. The seventh lens, with its negative optical power and convex-concave crescent shape (the shapes of the first and second sides are approximately concentric circles), allows for a smooth transition of converging light rays from the large aperture at the front end. The convex first side surface of the seventh lens facilitates the collection of more light; the concave second side surface of the seventh lens allows for a smooth transition of outgoing light rays, which is beneficial for correcting light rays in different fields of view.
[0108] In an exemplary embodiment, the eighth lens may have positive optical power, with its first side surface being convex and its second side surface being concave. The positive optical power of the eighth lens facilitates rapid light convergence, and its convex-concave crescent shape (the shapes of the first and second sides are nearly concentric circles) allows for a smooth transition of converging light from a large aperture at the front, reducing the back focal length to some extent and thus reducing the overall system length. Furthermore, the eighth lens may also have negative optical power. In this application, the effective focal length F8 of the eighth lens in several embodiments exceeds 100mm. The ability of the eighth lens to converge light is reduced, primarily serving to smoothly transition light. Since the eighth lens has a convex-concave crescent shape, tending towards concentric circles, the F8 value can approach infinity. Therefore, through reasonable design, an eighth lens with negative optical power and a convex-concave crescent shape can be obtained.
[0109] In an exemplary embodiment, both the first and second sides of the eighth lens are aspherical mirrors. The curvature of the aspherical surface varies at different locations, which is beneficial for correcting system aberrations and field curvature, thereby improving the resolving power of the optical system.
[0110] In an exemplary embodiment, an aperture stop for limiting the light beam may be disposed between the third and fourth lenses. In some embodiments of this application, the aperture stop may also be disposed between the fifth and sixth lenses. However, it should be noted that the positions of the aperture stops disclosed herein are merely examples and not limitations; in alternative embodiments, the aperture stop may be disposed in other positions as needed.

More specifically, TTL, H, and FOV can further satisfy: 0.18 ≤ TTL / H / FOV ≤ 0.24, which can further reduce the overall length of the optical system and better achieve lens miniaturization.
[0112] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: D / H / FOV ≤ 0.15, where D is the maximum aperture of the first side of the first lens corresponding to the maximum field of view of the optical lens, H is the image height corresponding to the maximum field of view of the optical lens, and FOV is the maximum field of view of the optical lens.

Satisfying (F×θ) / D≤0.5 allows for a smaller front aperture of the lens, reducing the size of the lens's imaging system, while also enabling the lens to meet telephoto characteristics, which is beneficial for achieving long-distance detection. F, θ, and D can further satisfy: 0.28≤(F×θ) / D≤0.39, which is beneficial for further miniaturization and telephoto characteristics.
[0114] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: BFL / TTL ≤ 0.15, where BFL is the distance on the optical axis from the center of the second side surface of the eighth lens to the imaging plane of the optical lens, and TTL is the distance on the optical axis from the center of the first side surface of the first lens to the imaging plane of the optical lens. Satisfying BFL / TTL ≤ 0.15 helps meet the special requirement of a short back focal length for the optical lens, ensuring sufficient space for component mounting and focusing while achieving a reduction in the overall system length and miniaturization. Furthermore, BFL and TTL can satisfy: 0.08 ≤ BFL / TTL ≤ 0.14, which further facilitates achieving the characteristics of a short back focal length and miniaturization.
[0115] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies the following condition: F / ENPD ≤ 1.2, where F is the effective focal length of the optical lens and ENPD is the entrance pupil diameter of the optical lens.

Satisfying TTL / F ≤ 5.5 is beneficial for miniaturization, but if TTL / F is too small, the system sensitivity will be high. A larger TTL / F can be beneficial for resolution and system sensitivity. Therefore, considering cost, miniaturization, system resolution, small FNO, and sensitivity, TTL and F can further satisfy: 3 ≤ TTL / F ≤ 4.1.
[0118] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 1 ≤ F1 / F ≤ 13, where F1 is the effective focal length of the first lens and F is the effective focal length of the optical lens.

Satisfying SAG3 / (D3 / 2) < 0 allows for a reasonable setting of the sag and effective aperture of the first side surface of the second lens, ensuring light divergence and enabling a smooth transition of peripheral light, which is beneficial for reducing lens sensitivity and increasing overall light transmission. SAG3 and D3 can further satisfy: -0.27 ≤ SAG3 / (D3 / 2) ≤ -0.1, which can further optimize the sag and effective aperture of the first side surface of the second lens, reducing lens sensitivity and increasing overall light transmission.

Satisfying (FOV×F) / H≥50 ensures that the lens has a longer focal length within a sufficient field of view, which is beneficial for long-distance detection. More specifically, FOV, F, and H can further satisfy: 57≤(FOV×F) / H≤60, which better maintains the telephoto characteristics and enables long-distance detection.

[0139] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 0.3 ≤ R15 / F ≤ 2, where R15 is the radius of curvature of the first side surface of the eighth lens, and F is the effective focal length of the optical lens. Satisfying 0.3 ≤ R15 / F ≤ 2 controls the radius of curvature R15 of the first side surface of the eighth lens to be positive, and its ratio with F is small, which is beneficial for light convergence without changing the overall smooth trend of light, effectively correcting aberrations and improving image quality. More specifically, R15 and F can further satisfy: 0.5 ≤ R15 / F ≤ 1.1, which can further achieve high resolution.
[0140] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 0.3 ≤ R16 / F ≤ 7, where R16 is the radius of curvature of the second side surface of the eighth lens, and F is the effective focal length of the optical lens. Satisfying 0.3 ≤ R16 / F ≤ 7 controls the radius of curvature R16 of the second side surface of the eighth lens to be positive and its ratio to F to be small, which is beneficial for light convergence without changing the overall smooth trend of the light, effectively correcting aberrations and improving image quality. More specifically, R16 and F can further satisfy: 0.6 ≤ R16 / F ≤ 4.9, which can further achieve high resolution.
[0141] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: |R13 / F7|≤0.8, where R13 is the radius of curvature of the first side surface of the seventh lens, and F7 is the effective focal length of the seventh lens. Satisfying |R13 / F7|≤0.8, and reasonably controlling the ratio of the radius of curvature of the first side surface of the seventh lens to the effective focal length of the seventh lens, helps to improve the lens's ability to adjust light aberrations, correct aberrations, and improve resolution. More specifically, R13 and F7 can further satisfy: 0.049≤|R13 / F7|≤0.5, which can further achieve high resolution and reduce sensitivity.
[0142] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: 0.2 ≤ R13 / (d14+R14) ≤ 1.1, where R13 is the radius of curvature of the first side of the seventh lens, R14 is the radius of curvature of the second side of the seventh lens, and d14 is the center thickness of the seventh lens on the optical axis. Controlling the radius of curvature and center thickness of the first and second sides of the seventh lens helps to smooth the light path, correct aberrations, and improve resolving power. More specifically, R13, R14, and d14 can further satisfy: 0.39 ≤ R13 / (d14+R14) ≤ 0.9, which can further optimize the radius of curvature and center thickness of the first and second sides of the seventh lens, better correct aberrations, and improve resolving power.
[0143] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens according to this application satisfies: |R15 / F8|≤0.9, where R15 is the radius of curvature of the first side surface of the eighth lens, and F8 is the effective focal length of the eighth lens. Satisfying |R15 / F8|≤0.9, and reasonably controlling the ratio of the radius of curvature of the first side surface of the eighth lens to the effective focal length of the eighth lens, helps to improve the lens's ability to adjust light aberrations, correct aberrations, and improve resolution. More specifically, R15 and F8 can further satisfy: 0.08≤|R15 / F8|≤0.67, which can further achieve high resolution and reduce sensitivity.
[0144] In an exemplary embodiment, the optical lens of this application may, as needed, include a filter and / or protective glass disposed between the eighth lens and the imaging surface. The filter can filter light of different wavelengths, and the protective glass can prevent damage to components (e.g., chips) on the second side of the optical lens.
[0145] In an exemplary embodiment, the first to eighth lenses can be spherical lenses or aspherical lenses. This application does not specifically limit the number of spherical and aspherical lenses; when image quality is a primary concern, the number of aspherical lenses can be increased, and even all lenses can be aspherical. Exemplarily, the eighth lens in this application is an aspherical lens. An aspherical lens is characterized by a continuously changing curvature from its center to its periphery. Unlike spherical lenses, which have a constant curvature from their center to their periphery, aspherical lenses have better radius of curvature characteristics, offering advantages in improving distortion and astigmatism. Using aspherical lenses can minimize aberrations that occur during imaging, thereby improving the lens's image quality. The use of aspherical lenses helps correct system aberrations and improves resolving power.
[0146] In an exemplary embodiment, the first to eighth lenses can be glass lenses or plastic lenses. This application does not specifically limit the exact number of glass lenses and plastic lenses. Optical lenses made of glass can suppress the shift of the back focus of the optical lens due to temperature changes, thereby improving system stability. At the same time, using glass can avoid problems such as lens blurring caused by high and low temperature changes in the operating environment, and problems affecting the normal use of the lens. Specifically, when temperature performance is a primary concern, the first to eighth lenses can all be made of glass. In applications with lower temperature stability requirements, the first to eighth lenses in the optical lens can also all be made of plastic. Using plastic to make optical lenses can effectively reduce manufacturing costs. Of course, the first to eighth lenses in the optical lens can also be made of a combination of plastic and glass.
[0147] The optical lens according to the above embodiments of this application can have at least one beneficial effect, such as miniaturization, high resolution, large aperture, low sensitivity, high light transmission, and high performance, by reasonably setting parameters such as the shape of each lens and optical power.
[0148] However, those skilled in the art will understand that the number of lenses constituting the lens can be varied to obtain the various results and advantages described in this specification without departing from the technical solutions claimed in this application. For example, although eight lenses are described as an example in the embodiments, the optical lens is not limited to including eight lenses. If desired, the optical lens may also include other numbers of lenses. Specific embodiments of the optical lens applicable to the above embodiments are further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0149] It should be noted that the optical lenses provided in Embodiments 1 to 20 of this application can all achieve good imaging quality, and their dot plots, diffraction ingress energy curves, and modulation transfer function (MTF) curves are quite similar. Therefore, this application only shows the dot plots, diffraction ingress energy curves, and modulation transfer function (MTF) curves of Embodiments 5, 8, and 11 by way of example. The dot plots, diffraction ingress energy curves, and modulation transfer function (MTF) curves of other embodiments are not shown one by one, and those skilled in the art should be able to know them based on the content disclosed in this application.
[0150] MTF stands for modulation transfer function, which describes the ability of an optical system to "reproduce" the object from the image. The horizontal axis of the modulation transfer function (MTF) curve represents spatial frequency, with the unit of spatial frequency being line pairs per millimeter (lp / mm). The vertical axis, Modulus of the OTF, represents the OTF coefficient. The MTF curve of the optical lens provided in this application has an MTF value of 0.4 or higher at 50 lp / mm, which can meet the required image quality.
[0151] The dot plot illustrates the focusing state of light at different wavelengths on the imaging plane. The RMS (Root Mean Square) is used to describe the size of the blur spot caused by wavefront errors or aberrations in the optical system. The RMS radius is an important parameter for evaluating the imaging quality of an optical system. It is obtained by taking the square root of the average sum of the squares of the coordinates of each point of the blur spot relative to the center point, thus quantitatively reflecting the actual spot size of the system. In the dot plot of the optical lens provided in this application, the root mean square radii of the light spots in the edge field of view on the image plane are all less than 19 μm.
[0152] Encircled energy curves describe the energy distribution of a light beam within a specific region after it passes through an optical system, reflecting the concentration of energy in the light spot. Specifically, it refers to the ratio of light intensity or energy within a certain radius of the beam's diffraction pattern to the total intensity or energy. In the encircled energy curve of the optical lens provided in this application, the light spot energy accounts for over 93% of the total light energy within a 15-micrometer diameter circle on the image plane.
