[0067] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0068] The optical lens provided in this embodiment of the invention has six lenses with optical power, which are arranged sequentially from the object side to the imaging plane along the optical axis as a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, a fifth lens, and a sixth lens.
[0069] In some embodiments, the first lens may have positive optical power, with its object-side surface being convex and its image-side surface being either concave or convex. The second lens may have negative optical power, with both its object-side and image-side surfaces being concave. The third lens may have positive optical power, with both its object-side and image-side surfaces being convex. The fourth lens may have positive optical power, with both its object-side and image-side surfaces being convex. The fifth lens may have negative optical power, with both its object-side and image-side surfaces being either concave or convex. The sixth lens may have positive optical power, with both its object-side and image-side surfaces being either concave or convex.
[0070] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include an aperture, which may be located between the second lens and the third lens. It can be understood that the aperture is used to limit the amount of incident light to change the brightness of the image. When the aperture is located between the second lens and the third lens, it is convenient for correcting the aperture aberration.
[0071] In some embodiments, the optical lens may further include a filter, which is disposed between the sixth lens and the imaging surface. The filter is used to filter out interfering light and prevent the interfering light from reaching the imaging surface of the optical lens and affecting normal imaging.
[0072] In some embodiments, the fourth lens and the fifth lens may be glued together to form a cemented lens, which can effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens, reduce the eccentricity sensitivity of the optical lens, balance the aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens; it can also reduce the assembly sensitivity of the optical lens, thereby reducing the processing difficulty of the optical lens and improving the assembly yield of the optical lens.
[0073] In some embodiments, the focal length f6 of the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1 < f6 / f < 5. Satisfying the above range is beneficial to suppressing the angle of the marginal field of view incident on the imaging surface, effectively transmitting more light beams to the imaging surface, and at the same time being able to balance the field curvature and spherical aberration of the optical lens, improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0074] In some embodiments, the curvature radius R4 of the image side surface of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.65 < R4 / f < 2.2. Reasonably controlling the curvature radius of the image side surface of the second lens is beneficial to controlling the shape of the second lens, optimizing the aberration balance of the lens group, and improving the imaging quality.
[0075] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f12 of the first lens and the second lens and the combined focal length f36 of the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens, and the sixth lens satisfy: -4.2 < f12 / f36 < -1.2. Satisfying the above range can reasonably distribute the proportion of the optical power of the lens groups before and after the aperture, increase the relative illumination of the lens, and improve the imaging quality of the lens.
[0076] In some embodiments, the clear aperture radius d1 of the object side surface of the first lens and the clear aperture radius d12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens satisfy: 1.2 < d1 / d12 < 2.9. By reasonably setting the ratio of the apertures of the first and last lenses, the lens can have a smaller head size while having a larger imaging surface, and can better meet the balance of miniaturization and high pixel.
[0077] In some embodiments, the sagittal height SAG3 of the clear aperture semi-diameter on the object side of the sixth lens, the sagittal height SAG4 of the clear aperture semi-diameter on the image side of the sixth lens, and the central thickness CT2 of the sixth lens satisfy: 0.2 < (SAG4 - SAG3) / CT2 < 2.5. Satisfying the above conditions can limit the degree of central depression of the second lens and reduce the difficulty of aberration correction for the marginal field of view.
[0078] In some embodiments, the total optical length TTL of the optical lens, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens, and the maximum field angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.1 / ° < TTL / IH / FOV < 0.3 / °. Satisfying the above range can achieve a balance among large image height, long focal length, and miniaturization, and improve the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0079] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, and the maximum field angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 50° < f×FOV / IH < 60°. Satisfying the above conditional formula is conducive to achieving the balance between the field angle of the optical lens and large target surface imaging by reasonably restricting the relationship among the focal length, field angle, and image height of the optical lens, and better meeting the usage requirements of high image quality shooting of the optical lens.
[0080] In some embodiments, the focal length f5 of the fifth lens and the focal length f6 of the sixth lens satisfy: -0.6 < f5 / f6 < -0.1. Satisfying the above range can converge the incident angle of marginal rays by reasonably setting the focal length relationship between the fifth lens and the sixth lens, improve the illumination uniformity and clarity of the picture edge, and simultaneously finely correct aberrations such as distortion, so that the lens picture can obtain a high-quality, dark corner-free, and undistorted clear image.
[0081] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R3 of the object side of the second lens and the radius of curvature R4 of the image side of the second lens satisfy: -2.9 < R3 / R4 < -0.55. Satisfying the above conditions can make the second lens have an appropriate positive optical power, smoothly transition the light rays, and reduce the difficulty of chromatic aberration correction for the optical lens.
[0082] In some embodiments, the sagittal height SAG11 of the clear aperture semi-diameter on the object side of the sixth lens, the sagittal height SAG12 of the clear aperture semi-diameter on the image side of the sixth lens, and the central thickness CT6 of the sixth lens satisfy: -0.1 < (SAG12 - SAG11) / CT6 < 0.1. Satisfying the above conditions is conducive to correcting the coma of the off-axis field of view and improving the imaging quality of the off-axis field of view of the optical lens by controlling the relationship between the height difference of the sagittal heights of the image side and the object side of the sixth lens and the central thickness of the sixth lens.
[0083] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R11 of the object side surface of the sixth lens and the radius of curvature R12 of the image side surface of the sixth lens satisfy: -0.4 < (R11 - R12) / (R11 + R12) < 1.1. Meeting the above range is conducive to suppressing the angle of incidence of the marginal field of view on the imaging surface, effectively transmitting more light beams to the imaging surface, and at the same time being able to balance the field curvature and spherical aberration of the optical lens, improving the imaging quality of the optical lens.
[0084] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f12 of the first lens and the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.4 < f12 / f < 4.5. Meeting the above requirements, by reasonably distributing the optical power of the first lens to the second lens, the deflection angle of the light rays at the front end of the lens is reduced, and the generation of various off-axis aberrations is reduced.
[0085] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f36 of the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens and the sixth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -2.2 < f36 / f < -0.72. Meeting the above requirements, by reasonably distributing the optical power of the third lens to the sixth lens, the focal length of the optical lens is balanced, the correction ability of various aberrations at the rear end of the lens is improved, and the imaging quality of the optical lens is improved.
[0086] In some embodiments, the combined focal length f45 of the fourth lens and the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.37 < f45 / f < 0.7. Meeting the above conditions helps more light rays enter the cemented lens smoothly and helps improve the illuminance.
[0087] In some embodiments, the object side light-passing semi-aperture sag SAG7, the image side light-passing semi-aperture sag SAG8 of the fourth lens and the central thickness CT of the fourth lens satisfy: -0.8 < (SAG8 - SAG7) / CT4 < -0.4. Meeting the above conditions can control the surface shape of the object side surface of the fourth lens, which is beneficial to the manufacturing and forming of the fourth lens, reducing the defective rate. In addition, it can also prevent the surface shape from being too curved and complex, making the system field curvature tend to be balanced.
[0088] In some embodiments, the overall optical length TTL of the optical lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 1.8 < TTL / f < 3.5. Meeting the above range can effectively limit the length of the lens, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the optical lens.
[0089] In some embodiments, the overall optical length TTL of the optical lens and the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens satisfy: 3 < TTL / IH < 7. It can better achieve the miniaturization of the lens, and at the same time ensure that under the same overall length of the lens, it has a larger image surface and can match a larger-sized imaging chip to achieve high-definition imaging.
[0090] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens, the effective focal length f of the optical lens, and the maximum field angle FOV of the optical lens satisfy: 0.98 < (IH / 2) / (f×tan(FOV / 2)) < 1.07. Meeting the above requirements indicates that the optical distortion of the optical lens is well controlled, improving the resolution of the optical lens.
[0091] In some embodiments, the maximum field angle FOV of the optical lens and the aperture value Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 13° < FOV / Fno < 27°. Meeting the above conditions is beneficial to increasing the light input of the lens, enabling the lens to achieve high-definition imaging even in a dim environment.
[0092] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens and the entrance pupil diameter EPD of the optical lens satisfy: 0.55 < IH / EPD < 1.1. Meeting the above range enables the optical lens to meet the large image plane while ensuring sufficient image plane brightness in the edge field of view, preventing the occurrence of vignetting, thereby improving the imaging quality. [[ID=In some embodiments, the back focal length BFL of the optical lens and the total optical length TTL of the optical lens satisfy: 0.05 < BFL / TTL < 0.13. Reasonably configuring the ratio of the back focal length of the optical lens to the total optical length of the optical lens is beneficial to achieving a short back focal length of the optical lens, and is beneficial to miniaturizing the optical lens while ensuring sufficient space for the installation and focusing of optical elements.
[0098] In some embodiments, the true image height IH corresponding to the maximum field angle of the optical lens and the aperture value Fno of the optical lens satisfy: 2.7 mm < IH / Fno < 6.2 mm. Satisfying the above conditions can ensure a large aperture of the optical lens while maintaining a large image plane of the optical lens, achieving a balance between a large image plane and a large aperture.
[0099] In some embodiments, the focal length f2 of the second lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -1.3 < f2 / f < -0.6. Satisfying the above conditions, the second lens uses a negative focal lens with a weak refractive power, which can avoid introducing too strong light deflection, thereby better controlling other aberrations (such as spherical aberration and coma).
[0100] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: 0.5 < f4 / f < 0.8; the focal length f5 of the fifth lens and the effective focal length f of the optical lens satisfy: -~0.7 < f5 / f < -0.4. The fourth lens and the fifth lens are glued together to form a doublet lens. The fourth lens and the fifth lens can have opposite optical powers, so that various aberrations of the optical lens can be fully corrected, the resolution can be improved, and high resolution can be achieved. At the same time, the use of the glued part is beneficial to reducing the tolerance sensitivity of the lens to tilt / eccentricity during the assembly process, improving the resolution stability, and further improving the system performance.
[0101] In some embodiments, the focal length f4 of the fourth lens and the focal length f5 of the fifth lens satisfy: -1.5 < f4 / f5 < -0.8. Satisfying the above conditions, by reasonably setting the focal lengths of the fourth and fifth lenses, better convergence of light can be achieved, the distance for light to enter the next lens can be shortened, and it is beneficial to miniaturize the optical lens.
[0102] In some embodiments, the central thickness CT2 of the second lens and the central thickness CT3 of the third lens satisfy: 0.2 < CT2 / CT3 < 1.3. Satisfying the above conditions can reduce the sensitivity of the system performance, while ensuring the lens processing performance and assembly stability, and improving the assembly yield.
[0103] In some embodiments, the central thickness CT3 of the third lens and the central thickness CT4 of the fourth lens satisfy: 0.3 < CT3 / CT4 < 1.1. Satisfying the above relationship, the two match each other, which helps to eliminate axial chromatic aberration.
[0104] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R1 of the object side surface of the first lens and the radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens satisfy: -0.8 < R1 / R2 < 0.95. By satisfying the above conditions, the light transmission amount of the optical lens can be effectively increased, and the field of view range of the optical lens can be effectively expanded.
[0105] In some embodiments, the radius of curvature R9 of the object side surface of the fifth lens and the radius of curvature R10 of the image side surface of the fifth lens satisfy: -8 < (R9 - R10) / (R9 + R10) < 0.8. By making the optical system satisfy the above relational expression, it is beneficial to rationally configure the ratio of the radius of curvature of the object side surface and the image side surface of the fifth lens, control the shape of the fifth lens, comprehensively balance the spherical aberration, chromatic aberration and field curvature of the optical system, and reduce the risk of generating ghost images, improve the resolution ability of the optical system. At the same time, it is also beneficial to reduce the processing difficulty of the fifth lens.
[0106] In some embodiments, the optical lens satisfies the following conditional expressions: 9mm < f < 16mm; 6mm < EPD < 10mm; 30mm < TTL < 33mm; 1.3 < Fno < 1.8; 11° < CRA < 29°; 1.8mm < BFL < 4mm; 20° < FOV < 35°; 4mm < IH < 10mm. In the above conditional expressions, f represents the effective focal length of the optical lens, EPD represents the entrance pupil diameter of the optical lens, TTL represents the total optical length of the optical lens, Fno represents the aperture value of the optical lens, CRA represents the principal ray incident angle at the maximum image height of the optical lens, BFL represents the back focal length of the optical lens, FOV represents the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens, and IH represents the true image height corresponding to the maximum field of view angle of the optical lens. By satisfying the above ranges, the optical lens has at least one or more advantages such as a large target surface, a large aperture, and a long focal length characteristic.
[0107] In some embodiments, the lens material in the optical lens provided by the present invention can be glass or plastic. When the lens material is plastic, the production cost can be effectively reduced. When the lens material is glass, the geometric chromatic aberration of the optical system can be effectively corrected by the low dispersion characteristic of the glass itself. The optical lens provided by the present invention can adopt an all-glass lens structure, which can reduce dispersion, effectively correct the chromatic aberration of the optical lens, and improve the imaging quality.
[0108] In some embodiments, the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth lenses can be spherical or aspherical lenses. Compared to spherical structures, aspherical structures can effectively reduce the aberrations of the optical system, thereby reducing the number of lenses and their size, and better achieving lens miniaturization. More specifically, the sixth lens of this invention is an aspherical lens; the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth lenses are spherical lenses.
[0109] In various embodiments of the present invention, when an aspherical lens is used, the shapes of each aspherical surface of the optical lens satisfy the following equations:
[0110]
[0111] Where z is the distance between the surface and the vertex of the surface in the direction of the optical axis, h is the distance from the optical axis to the surface, c is the curvature of the vertex of the surface, K is the quadratic surface coefficient, and B, C, D, E, and F are the fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth, and twelfth order surface coefficients, respectively.
[0112] The present invention will be further described below with reference to several embodiments. In each embodiment, the thickness, radius of curvature, and material selection of each lens in the optical lens are different; for specific differences, please refer to the parameter tables of each embodiment. The following embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the embodiments of the present invention are not limited to the following embodiments. Any changes, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the innovative points of the present invention should be considered equivalent substitutions and are included within the protection scope of the present invention.
