Abstract
Description
[Technical field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical lenses, and more particularly to imaging optical lenses applied to mobile terminal devices such as smartphones and digital cameras, laser radar devices, and imaging devices such as monitors and PC lenses. [Background technology]
[0002] In recent years, the demand for miniaturization of imaging lenses has been increasing. For example, under the promotion of intelligent detection technology, 3D spatial detection technology based on laser radar has been actively developed. Laser radar lenses have the advantages of high detection accuracy, strong anti-interference ability, long coverage range, wide application range, etc., and are therefore applied in military and civilian fields. However, there are only two types of photosensitive elements in imaging lenses, namely, charge coupled devices (CCD) and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor sensors (CMOS sensors). With the progress of semiconductor manufacturing process technology, the pixel size of the photosensitive elements has been reduced, and miniaturized imaging lenses with good imaging quality have become the mainstream in the current market. In addition, with the development of technology and the increasing diversification needs of users, the pixel area of the photosensitive elements is shrinking, and when the system's requirements for imaging quality are increasing, five-element, six-element, and seven-element lens configurations are gradually appearing in lens designs. Demand for wide-angle imaging optical lenses with excellent optical properties, large apertures and ultra-thin lenses is becoming increasingly urgent.
