[0032] Example 1:
[0033] Reference Figure 1 This utility model provides an ultra-thin imaging lens, including a first lens 1, a second lens 2, and a third lens 3. The object-side and image-side surfaces of the first lens 1, second lens 2, and third lens 3 are all aspherical. It also includes an aperture stop 4 disposed between the second lens 2 and the third lens 3. The aperture stop 4 is used in the lens to control the amount of light passing through. The first lens 1 has negative refractive power, while the second lens 2 and third lens 3 both have positive refractive power. This positive and negative refractive power causes the incident light to diffuse outward, expanding the field of view and reducing distortion. The optical performance of the entire system can be optimized. The object-side surface of the first lens 1 is concave at the paraxial position, the object-side surface of the second lens 2 is convex, and the image-side surface of the third lens 3 is convex. The ultra-thin imaging lens satisfies the following relationship: 0.227 < f / R4 < 0.259, which allows the selection of the focal length of the high-definition optical imaging lens and the radius of curvature of the image-side surface of the second lens 2; 30 < V1 - V2 < 33, which allows the selection of the range of Abbe number of the first lens 1 and the second lens 2. The higher the Abbe number, the less chromatic aberration and the better the image quality.

This allows for the effective reduction of the overall size of the lens and the improvement of its angle of view while maintaining high image quality. As a result, the lens has the characteristics of high resolution, wide angle of view, and large aperture, thus making it better suited for use in small or thin portable electronic imaging devices.
