[0045] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, they are provided to make the description of this application more comprehensive and complete, and to fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The drawings are merely illustrative of this application and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and therefore repeated descriptions of them will be omitted.

[0046] Furthermore, the described features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more exemplary embodiments. Numerous specific details are provided in the following description to give a full understanding of exemplary embodiments of this application. However, those skilled in the art will recognize that the technical solutions of this application can be practiced with one or more specific details omitted, or other modules, components, etc., can be employed. In other instances, well-known structures, methods, implementations, or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring various aspects of this application.

[0047] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the architectural layout of a long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 according to an embodiment of this application is shown, wherein the optical axis 80 is the center line of the light beam. Figure 1 In the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100, the object is located to the left of the leftmost lens, meaning the object side is to the left of the leftmost lens, and the object plane 60 is located on the object side. The image formed by the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 is located to the right of the rightmost lens, meaning the image side is to the right of the rightmost lens, and the image plane 70 is located on the image side. Therefore, the direction along the optical axis 80 from the object plane 60 to the image plane 70 is consistent with the direction along the optical axis 80 from the object side to the image side. In the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100, the side of each optical element closest to the object plane 60 is the object side or object-side surface of the corresponding optical element. Similarly, the side of each optical element in the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 closest to the image plane 70 is the image side or image-side surface of the corresponding optical element.

[0048] The long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 includes a first aspherical lens 10, a second aspherical lens 20, and a diffractive optical element 30.

[0049] The first aspherical lens 10 has a positive optical power, and the object side of the first aspherical lens 10 is convex to the object side, while the image side of the second aspherical lens 20 is convex to the object side.

[0050] The second aspherical lens 20 has a positive optical power. The first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20 are arranged sequentially from the object side to the image side along the optical axis 80.

[0051] A diffractive optical element (DOE) 30 is an optical device designed based on the principle of light diffraction. It precisely modulates the wavefront of incident light through micro / nano structures or periodic patterns to achieve specific optical functions. The DOE 30 is disposed on the image-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10. The negative dispersion introduced by the DOE 30 can correct the positive dispersion introduced by the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20, thereby achieving achromatic aberration.

[0052] In the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 provided in this application, the diffraction optical element 30 has opposite dispersion characteristics to the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20. The chromatic aberration of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 is corrected by the combination of the diffraction optical element 30 with the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20, so that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 has excellent imaging quality.

[0053] For the second aspherical lens 20 mentioned above, the shapes of its object side and image side are not fixed.

[0054] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 11 In some embodiments, the object side of the second aspherical lens 20 convexes towards the object side, and the image side of the second aspherical lens 20 convexes towards the object side.

[0055] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 16 In some embodiments, the paraxial region of the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20 convexes towards the object side, and the edge of the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20 is inverted. Similarly, the paraxial region of the image-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20 convexes towards the object side, and the edge of the image-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20 is inverted. In this application, the paraxial region of the lens refers to a small area on the lens close to the optical axis 80, in which the angle between the light rays and the optical axis 80 is very small, nearly parallel to the optical axis 80.

[0056] In some embodiments, the diffractive optical element 30 satisfies: The maximum phase difference of the diffractive optical element 30 corresponding to a wavelength of 10 micrometers. The unit is 2π rad. By properly configuring the maximum phase difference of the diffractive optical element 30, it is beneficial to eliminate the chromatic aberration of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100, thereby improving the imaging quality of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100.

[0057] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the diffractive optical element 30 satisfies: The maximum phase difference of the diffractive optical element 30 corresponding to a wavelength of 10 micrometers. The unit is 2π rad. By precisely configuring the maximum phase difference of the diffractive optical element 30, the negative dispersion introduced by the diffractive optical element 30 can be ensured to be more accurate, so that the negative dispersion introduced by the diffractive surface can be better matched with the positive dispersion introduced by the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20, which can better eliminate chromatic aberration and thus ensure the imaging quality of the long-focal far-infrared optical system 100.

[0058] In some embodiments, the diffractive optical element 30 is a diffractive surface, which is an optical element surface that uses the diffraction effect of light to control the light wavefront and has a specific microstructure design.

[0059] In some embodiments, the diffractive optical element 30 is a metasurface, which is composed of subwavelength nanoantennas or micro / nano structures arranged together. By adjusting the shape, size and arrangement of the nanoantennas or micro / nano structures, the phase, amplitude and polarization of light can be precisely controlled.

[0060] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition one: Where f1 is the focal length of the first aspherical lens 10 and f2 is the focal length of the second aspherical lens 20. f1 and f2 have the same dimension, both being units of length, such as millimeters.

[0061] Condition 1 reflects the optical power distribution relationship of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100. Condition 1 is beneficial to the aberration correction of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 and can ensure that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 can provide excellent imaging quality.

[0062] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition two: Among them, D 11 The effective diameter of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10, in this application, refers to the diameter of the maximum light-transmitting area of ​​the corresponding surface of the lens (object-side or image-side) along the optical axis 80. For example, the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10 refers to the diameter of the maximum light-transmitting area of ​​the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10. D 21 D is the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20. 11 D 21 They have the same dimensions, both being units of length, such as millimeters.

[0063] Condition two is the ratio of the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10 to the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20. The lower limit of condition two ensures that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 has a small volume. At the same time, the lower limit of condition two ensures that the rear port diameter (the diameter near the end of the second aspherical lens 20) of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 is not too large. The upper limit of condition two ensures that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 has sufficient optical back focus, thereby ensuring that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 has a small volume while still reserving enough installation space for the imaging sensor and structural components.

[0064] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition three: Where L1 is the distance on the optical axis 80 between the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10 and the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20, and L2 is the distance on the optical axis 80 between the image-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20 and the image plane 70 of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100. FOV (Field of View) is the maximum field of view of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100. L1 and L2 have the same dimension, both being units of length, such as millimeters. The unit of FOV is an angle unit, such as degrees.

[0065] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition four: Wherein, T1 is the center thickness of the first aspherical lens 10. In this application, the thickness of the lens refers to the thickness of the lens along the optical axis 80. For example, the center thickness of the first aspherical lens 10 refers to the thickness of the first aspherical lens 10 along the optical axis 80. T2 is the center thickness of the second aspherical lens 20, D 11 D is the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10. 21 The effective diameter of the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20. T1, T2, D 11 D 21 They have the same dimensions, both being units of length, such as millimeters.

[0066] The upper limit of conditional expression four is used to control the weight of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100, thereby reducing the amount of lens material used and thus lowering the cost of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100. The lower limit of conditional expression four is used to ensure that both the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20 have the expected thickness, so that the thickness of the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20 meets the processing requirements.

[0067] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition five: Among them, D 11Let f1 be the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10, and f1 be the focal length of the first aspherical lens 10. 11 f1 and f2 have the same dimensions; both are units of length, such as millimeters.

[0068] The upper limit of condition five ensures that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 has a shorter length, while the lower limit of condition five ensures that the first aspherical lens 10 has sufficient optical power to guarantee imaging quality.

[0069] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition six: Among them, D 11 is the effective diameter of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10. ImgH is the radius of the imaging region of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 on the image plane 70 corresponding to the maximum half-field angle; that is, ImgH is half the diagonal length of the image sensor adapted to the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100. Fno is the aperture number of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100; that is, Fno is the F-number of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100. D 11 Both ImgH and 1mgH have the same dimensions; they are both units of length, such as millimeters.

[0070] The upper limit of condition six ensures that the aperture of the first aspherical lens 10 is not too large, and the lower limit of condition six ensures that the long-focal far-infrared optical system 100 has a sufficient amount of light intake, thereby ensuring that the image formed by the long-focal far-infrared optical system 100 is relatively bright.

[0071] In some embodiments, the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 satisfies condition seven: Wherein, R1 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10, R2 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10, R3 is the radius of curvature of the object-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20, and R4 is the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second aspherical lens 20. R1, R2, R3, and R4 have the same dimensions and are all units of length, such as millimeters.

[0072] Condition 7 ensures that the surface shape and optical power of the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20 are reasonably matched, thereby ensuring that the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 has excellent imaging quality.

[0073] The long-focus far-infrared optical system 100 also includes an aperture 40, which is used to control the amount of light entering the long-focus far-infrared optical system 100 to ensure that the long-focus far-infrared optical system 100 can work effectively and generate high-quality images.

[0074] In some embodiments, the aperture stop 40 is disposed on the object side of the first aspherical lens 10. Specifically, the aperture stop 40 may be disposed in the following positions:

[0075] (1) The aperture 40 is disposed on the object side of the first aspherical lens 10, and the aperture 40 is disposed at a distance from the first aspherical lens 10.

[0076] (2) The aperture 40 is disposed on the object side of the first aspherical lens 10, and the aperture 40 is attached to the object side of the first aspherical lens 10, that is, the aperture 40 is disposed on the object side of the first aspherical lens 10.

[0077] In some embodiments, the aperture stop 40 is disposed between the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20. Specifically, the aperture stop 40 can be positioned as follows:

[0078] (1) The aperture 40 is disposed between the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20, and the aperture 40 is attached to the image side of the first aspherical lens 10, that is, the aperture 40 is disposed on the image side of the first aspherical lens 10.

[0079] (2) The aperture 40 is disposed between the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20, and the aperture 40 is disposed at intervals with the first aspherical lens 10 and the second aspherical lens 20.

[0081] In some embodiments, the telephoto far-infrared optical system 100 further includes a protective glass 50 located between the second aspherical lens 20 and the image plane 70. The protective glass 50 is used to protect the lens and the image sensor matched with the telephoto far-infrared optical system 100.

[0087] This application provides three exemplary long-focal-length far-infrared optical systems 100 that meet usage requirements in three embodiments. The long-focal-length far-infrared optical systems 100 provided in each embodiment of this application will be described in detail below.

[0088] Example 1

[0089] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the architecture layout of the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 provided in Embodiment 1 is shown. Figure 1 The mid-to-long focal length far-infrared optical system 100, along the optical axis 80 from the object plane 60 to the image plane 70, includes, in sequence: an aperture stop 40, a first aspherical lens 10, a diffractive optical element 30, a second aspherical lens 20, and a protective glass 50. The aperture stop 40 is located on the object-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10, and the diffractive optical element is a diffraction surface located on the image-side surface of the first aspherical lens 10. Some parameters of the long focal length far-infrared optical system 100 provided in Embodiment 1 are shown in Table 1-1.

[0092] As shown in Table 1-1, the total optical length of the long-focus far-infrared optical system 100 is 44.19 mm and the F-number of the long-focus far-infrared optical system 100 is 0.9. Therefore, the long-focus far-infrared optical system 100 has a large amount of light intake, which can ensure excellent imaging quality.

[0093] Along the optical axis 80 from the object plane 60 to the image plane 70, starting from the aperture stop 40, each surface in the long focal far-infrared optical system 100 is numbered, and the parameters of each surface are summarized to obtain Table 1-2 below.

The table 5 is mainly used to illustrate that the conditions satisfied by the long-focal-length far-infrared optical system 100 provided in this application have all been verified and supported by experiments.
