An imaging light penetrates the optical element, and the optical element has a material injection mark. The anti-reflection film is disposed on at least part of a surface of the optical element, and includes a nanostructure layer and an intermediate layer. The nanostructure layer has a plurality of ridge-shaped protrusions extending in a non-directional manner, wherein a bottom of each ridge-shaped protrusion is closer to the optical element than a top, and each ridge-shaped protrusion tapers from the bottom to the top.

[0094] The thickness of each first dielectric layer can satisfy the following condition: 45 nm < LT1 < 90 nm. In this way, environmental resistance of the antireflection film can be improved.

[0095] The thickness of the second dielectric layer can satisfy the following condition: 3 nm < LT2 < 27 nm.

[0096] The thickness of each first dielectric layer can satisfy the following condition: 2.3 < LT1 / LT3 < 9.6. In this way, environmental resistance and antireflection performance of the antireflection film can be improved.

In detail, the height of each ridge-shaped protrusion can be different, and at least three or more ridge-shaped protrusions can be taken to calculate the average height, and ridge-shaped protrusions that can be recognized as a profile are preferred. Furthermore, the height of the ridge-shaped protrusion can be a vertical height from an absolute bottom (a foot portion) of the ridge-shaped protrusion to a top portion (a top portion) of the ridge-shaped protrusion when observed from a cross-sectional view (destructive measurement).

[0098] The average reflectivity of at least a portion of the surface of the optical element provided with the nanostructure layer corresponding to a wavelength of light of 420 nm to 760 nm can satisfy the following condition: 0% < R4276 < 0.2%. In this way, transmittance can be improved while reducing reflection of stray light. In addition, the following condition can be satisfied: 0% < R4276 < 0.1%.

[0099] The height of each protrusion can be greater than 40 μm and less than 1000 μm. In this way, reflection of stray light to an imaging surface can be blocked. In addition, the height of each protrusion can be greater than 50 μm and less than 500 μm.

As shown in FIG. 1A , the imaging lens 100 further comprises an anti-reflection film 120, wherein the anti-reflection film 120 is disposed on at least part of the surface of the optical element 110, the anti-reflection film 120 comprises a nano-structure layer 121 and an intermediate layer 122, and the optical element 110 has a sprue mark 111. It must be pointed out that FIG. 1E the dashed line of FIG. 1A is used to represent the range of the anti-reflection film 120. FIG. 1F FIG. 1A FIGS. 1B-1F FIG. 1E

[0107] ​​​​Further, the nanostructure layer 121 has a plurality of ridge-shaped protrusions 121a extending in a non-directional manner, wherein a bottom of each ridge-shaped protrusion 121a is closer to the optical element 110 than a top of the ridge-shaped protrusion 121a, and each ridge-shaped protrusion 121a tapers from the bottom to the top. The intermediate layer 122 is disposed between the optical element 110 and the nanostructure layer 121, and includes at least two first dielectric layers and at least one second dielectric layer, wherein a refractive index of the second dielectric layer is different from a refractive index of each first dielectric layer, and the second dielectric layer is disposed between the first dielectric layers.

[0108] The above configuration with the intermediate layer 122 helps to improve the structural stability of the anti-reflection film 120, so as to improve the tolerance of the anti-reflection film 120 to environmental changes, such as temperature, humidity or other chemical interference, so as to maintain the low reflection performance of the anti-reflection film 120, and the ridge-shaped protrusions 121a help to form a gradient refractive index to reduce the reflectivity.

[0109] In detail, the injection mark 111 can be a trace of the material of the optical element 110 after being heated and melted, or the injection mark 111 can be a trace of the material after being heated and melted having fluidity, forming a specific geometric appearance in a specific geometric space, such as a cutting trace of a flow channel of injection molding. The injection mark 111 can also be referred to as a flow mark, but all of these are not limited, and are not limited by the definition of the conventional technical jargon.

[0110] From the above, FIG. 1C It can be seen that the optical element 110 with the injection mark 111 can be designed to have a more complex shape by the mold, for example, the clear aperture in the element can be partially reduced, and the opportunity of stray light passing through can be reduced.

[0111] The main component of the nanostructure layer 121 can be aluminum oxide, the main component of each first dielectric layer can be silicon oxide, and the main component of the second dielectric layer can be titanium oxide. In this way, the film layer stability can be improved, and the second dielectric layer can be combined with the first dielectric layer to produce film interference to reduce the reflectivity.

[0112] From the above, FIG. 1F It can be seen that the vertical height of each ridge-shaped protrusion 121a is H, wherein the height of each ridge-shaped protrusion 121a can be different, at least three or more ridge-shaped protrusions 121a can be taken to calculate the average height, and the ridge-shaped protrusion 121a that can be identified as the profile is preferred. Further, the height of the ridge-shaped protrusion 121a can be the vertical height H from the absolute bottom (the foot part) of the ridge-shaped protrusion 121a to the top (the top part) of the ridge-shaped protrusion 121a when observed from the cross section (destructive measurement).

In detail, the extinction structures 112 and 113 can be formed in the optical element 110 through mold design, and the extinction structures 112 and 113 can be disposed in areas outside the optically effective area.

[0114] Depend on FIG. 1C It can be seen that the extinction structure 113 may have multiple protrusions, and the protrusions are arranged in a regular manner, wherein each protrusion is an arc protrusion and the height of each protrusion is 150μm.

In this way, the protrusions 112a of the matting structure 112 and the protrusions of the matting structure 113 are beneficial to the quality management of the matting structures 112 and 113.

[0116] Depend on FIG. 1F It is known that a portion of the top of the intermediate layer 122 is in contact with air. This helps to regulate the degree of change in the gradient refractive index of the nanostructure layer 121.

The refractive index of the third dielectric layer is different from that of the second dielectric layer. The third dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer are disposed adjacent to each other, and the refractive index of the second dielectric layer may be higher than the refractive indices of both the first and third dielectric layers. This allows the third dielectric layer and the second dielectric layer to form thin-film interference, which helps to reduce reflectivity.
