DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0035] According to the present disclosure, there is provided a photosensitive element module having an optical path, the photosensitive element corresponding to the optical path, a reflective element facing and adjacent to the photosensitive element and bending the optical path, an optical multilayer stacked structure layer located along the optical path away from the photosensitive element than the reflective element and having a reflectance of 10% or less for light with a wavelength of 450 nm to 600 nm, and a nano-rough surface provided on one side of the photosensitive element facing the reflective element, the nano-rough surface including a plurality of nano-protrusion structures that are irregular in shape and arranged adjacent to each other, have a width of 300 nm or less and a height of 350 nm or less, the reflectance of the nano-rough surface corresponding to the reflectance of the optical multilayer stacked structure layer, the wavelength at which the reflectance of the optical multilayer stacked structure layer is 50% is R50, the maximum reflectance of the nano-rough surface for wavelengths from 450 nm to R50 is 0.49% or less, and the photosensitive element module satisfies the condition 600 nm≦R50≦720 nm.
[0036] Specifically, the arrangement of the reflective element, the nano-rough surface and the optical multi-layer stacked structure layer in the optical path has multiple advantages such as effectively improving color contrast, avoiding glare, shortening the height of the camera module, and improving industrial utilization rate. Furthermore, the present disclosure can improve the problem that infrared light is prone to cause glare in folded telephoto lenses.
[0037] By positioning the optical multilayer stack structure layer farther away from the nano-rough surface than the reflective element along the optical path, glare formed by reflection between the optical multilayer stack structure layer and the photosensitive surface can be avoided, thereby avoiding deterioration of optical quality, and the thickness of the optical multilayer stack structure layer in the direction perpendicular to the photosensitive surface can be reduced, thereby improving industrial utilization rate.
[0038] In addition, the optical multilayer stack structure layer achieves the function of filtering light by passing light in the visible light range and reflecting infrared and ultraviolet light. The nano-rough surface optimizes the transmittance of light that can pass through the optical multilayer stack structure layer, greatly reduces the reflection of light on the photosensitive surface, and improves the receiving ratio of visible light.
[0039] The optical multilayer stack structure layer is multi-layered, and the number of layers can be 10 or more. The optical multilayer stack structure layer with a large number of layers can be a stack of multiple sets of plating films, and adjacent layers of the optical multilayer stack structure layer have different refractive indices, thereby providing different reflectances for light of different frequencies. By stacking layers with high and low refractive indices on each other, the light with wavelengths of 400 nm or less and 700 nm or more has high reflectance, thereby achieving the effect of light filtering. The number of layers can also be 36 or more. The number of layers can also be 72 or more.
[0040] The nano-roughened surface may also be fabricated by processes such as, but not limited to, nano-imprinting, etching, and epitaxial.
[0041] The reflective element may include a prism, which includes a light input surface, at least one reflecting surface, and a light output surface along the light path, and the light output surface faces and is adjacent to the nano-rough surface. Specifically, the prism can reduce assembly tolerances and improve the yield rate. In addition, the light output surface can further close the air compartment, thereby achieving good sealing.
[0042] The optical multilayer stacked structure layer may be provided on the light incident surface, thereby avoiding surface reflection between the optical multilayer stacked structure layer and the light incident surface. The optical multilayer stacked structure layer may also be provided directly on the light incident surface, and may be bonded to the prism via a filter element to achieve the above structure, but is not limited thereto.
[0043] The prism may be a red light absorbing element, and the red light absorbing element may be blue glass, which can reduce the interference of red light with other light receiving pixels and further improve the optical quality.
[0044] At least one of the light entrance surface, the reflection surface and the light exit surface of the prism may include an aspheric surface, and the aspheric surface is provided corresponding to the light path, which can further improve the optical quality after passing through the optical multi-layer stacked structure layer.
[0045] The prism may further include a plurality of recessed structures arranged adjacent to each other and narrowing toward the optical path, with adjacent recessed structures forming a tip. The distance between adjacent recessed structures among the tips may be between 0.3 mm and 2.9 mm. This prevents light rays from being reflected through the wall surface of the prism to form glare.
[0046] The prism may be a glass element, may further include an injection mark, and is injection molded through the injection mark. Specifically, the material of the prism may be, but is not limited to, transparent glass, red light absorbing glass, etc.
[0047] The prism may further include an edge surface, and the ejection mark extends from the edge surface in a direction away from the optical path and gradually widens in a direction approaching the edge surface. This can prevent glare from occurring at the notch of the ejection mark. In detail, the ejection mark may include a fillet surface connected to the edge surface, which improves moldability.
[0048] The reflective element may include a reflective mirror that folds the optical path. Reducing the weight of the reflective element can reduce the weight of the photosensitive element module, and indirectly reduce the energy and time consumed to drive the reflective element.
[0049] The reflective element may further include a frame, and the frame and the reflective mirror are integrally molded by embedded injection, which can reduce assembly tolerances and assembly steps.
[0050] The reflective element may further include a nano-rough surface provided on at least a portion of the reflective mirror and the frame, which can reduce reflection on the substrate surface of the reflective mirror to avoid ghosting and reduce glare caused by reflection on the frame.
[0051] The photosensitive element module may further include a holder and an air compartment, the holder covers the photosensitive element, and the reflective element is provided on the holder, the air compartment is formed between the reflective element and the photosensitive element, the holder surrounds the air compartment, and the nano-rough surface and the air compartment at least partially overlap in the optical path, which can avoid contamination of the photosensitive surface during assembly.
[0052] The nano-rough surface may extend from the photosensitive surface to the holder and is provided on at least a portion of the holder, thereby preventing light rays from being reflected by the holder to create glare.
[0053] The reflective element may include a holder part fixed relatively to the photosensitive element. The photosensitive element module may further include an air compartment formed between the reflective element and the photosensitive element, surrounded by the holder part, and at least partially overlapping the nano-rough surface in the optical path. The reflective element and the holder part are integrally molded, thereby reducing the assembly process and assembly tolerance, and further improving the optical quality. The integral molding method can be achieved by a process such as, but not limited to, injection molding, embedded injection, etc.
[0054] The photosensitive element module may further include an infrared light absorbing coating disposed on the reflecting element, the thickness of which may be 900 nm to 5 um. This can prevent the infrared light remaining after passing through the optical multi-layer stacked structure layer from affecting the image quality. In addition, when the infrared light absorbing coating is disposed on the reflecting surface, it can be equivalent to passing through the infrared light absorbing coating twice, thereby reducing the thickness of the coating.
[0055] The photosensitive element module may further include a filter element, which may include a red light absorbing plate provided with an optical multi-layer stacked structure layer. The red light absorbing plate can reduce the interference of red light with other light-receiving pixels, and further improve the optical quality. In particular, the modularized filter element can improve the assembly process, thereby ensuring manufacturability.
[0056] The photosensitive element may include a plurality of pixel units, each of which includes a microlens, and the pixel size may be 400nm to 2000nm, and the nano-rough surface is provided on the microlens in any one of the pixel units. The light receiving effect of the pixel unit is improved, thereby improving the optical quality of the edge. An intermediate layer may be further included between the nano-rough surface and the microlens to improve adhesion.
[0057] The above technical features of the photosensitive element module of the present disclosure can be arranged in combination to achieve corresponding effects.
[0058] According to the present disclosure, there is provided a camera module including the above-mentioned photosensitive element module and an imaging lens arranged on the object side of the photosensitive element module along an optical path, and an optical multilayer stacked structure layer may be arranged on the object side of the reflective element.
[0059] The camera module may further include an object-side reflective element disposed on the object side of the photosensitive element module and provided with an optical multi-layer stacked structure layer, which can further prevent non-imaging light rays from entering the camera module and forming glare.
[0060] The imaging lens may include an object-side lens group disposed on the object side of the object-side reflecting element to control the light rays passing through the optical multi-layer stacked structure layer, thereby improving the effect.
[0061] The imaging lens may include an image-side lens group disposed between the object-side reflective element and the photosensitive element module, and the optical multi-layer stack structure layer is disposed between the image-side lens group and the reflective element, and the optical multi-layer stack structure layer is arranged to optimize the light passing through the optical multi-layer stack structure layer, thereby improving the optical quality.
[0062] The camera module may further include an object-side reflective element disposed on the object side of the reflective element and may include an infrared light absorbing coating, the optical path passes through the infrared light absorbing coating, and the thickness of the infrared light absorbing coating may be 900 nm to 5 um. Furthermore, the object-side reflective element may include an infrared light absorbing coating, and the infrared light absorbing coating may be combined with an optical multilayer stacked structure layer to prevent infrared light from entering the photosensitive surface and further improve the optical quality.
[0063] The imaging lens may include a plurality of lenses arranged in sequence along the optical path, and the optical multi-layer stack layer is provided on one of the plurality of lenses. In particular, the lens material may be an infrared light absorbing material to further filter infrared light.
[0064] The imaging lens may further include a lens group fixed relative to the reflecting element, and the optical multilayer stack layer is disposed on the lens group, thereby reducing the risk of offset of the optical multilayer stack layer.
[0065] The imaging lens may further include an optical absorption lens, the absorption peak of which may be between 600 nm and 800 nm. The optical absorption lens and the optical multilayer stacked structure layer may be combined to correct the color shift caused by the optical multilayer stacked structure layer, thereby further improving the effect of light filtering. In detail, the optical multilayer stacked structure layer may be further provided on the optical absorption lens.
[0066] The photosensitive element module may further include a sub-optical multi-layer stacked structure layer disposed on the reflecting element, and the reflectance of the sub-optical multi-layer stacked structure layer to a light beam having a wavelength of 450 nm to 550 nm may be 10% or less, and the wavelength at which the reflectance of the sub-optical multi-layer stacked structure layer is 50% is R50', and the condition of 600 nm≦R50'≦720 nm is satisfied. A sub-optical multi-layer stack layer may further be provided on the filter element for secondary filtering of the incident light beam and thus ensuring optical quality.
[0067] The imaging lens may have an average wavelength transmittance of 5% or less for light rays with wavelengths of 700 nm to 800 nm, and a transmittance of 82% or more for light rays with a maximum transmittance wavelength of 400 nm to 800 nm. The imaging lens has a light filtering function, which saves the space required for using conventional filter elements and further reduces the volume of the camera module.

As can be seen from Figures 1A to 1C, the camera module 10 includes a photosensitive element module 11, an imaging lens (not shown), and an imaging lens carrier 13 (shown in Figure 1E), where the imaging lens is provided on the object side of the photosensitive element module 11 along the optical path L, and the imaging lens carrier 13 is used to mount the imaging lens.
[0074] Please refer to FIG. 1D-FIG. 1F. FIG. 1D is a scanning electron microscope image of the photosensitive element 110 and the nano-rough surface 140 in the first embodiment of FIG. 1A, FIG. 1E is a partial schematic view of the camera module 10 in the first example of the first embodiment of FIG. 1A, and FIG. 1F is a partial enlarged view of the photosensitive element module 11 in the first example of the first embodiment of FIG. 1E. As can be seen from FIG. 1B-FIG. 1F, the photosensitive element module 11 has an optical path L and includes a photosensitive element 110, a reflecting element 120a, an optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131, and a nano-rough surface 140. The photosensitive element 110 corresponds to the optical path L. The reflecting element 120a faces and is adjacent to the photosensitive element 110, and folds the optical path L. The optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 is provided along the optical path L farther from the photosensitive element 110 than the reflecting element 120a, and on the object side of the reflecting element 120a. The nano-rough surface 140 includes a plurality of nano-protrusion structures 141 that are irregular in shape and adjacently arranged, and is provided on one side of the photosensitive element 110 facing the reflective element 120a.
[0075] By having the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 located farther from the nano-rough surface 140 than the reflective element 120a along the optical path L, glare caused by reflection between the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 and the photosensitive surface IMG of the photosensitive element 110 can be avoided, thereby avoiding deterioration of optical quality, and the thickness of the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 in the direction perpendicular to the photosensitive surface IMG can be reduced, thereby improving industrial utilization rate.
[0076] In detail, the optical multilayer stack structure layer 131 transmits light rays in the visible light range and reflects infrared light and ultraviolet light, or reflects infrared light or ultraviolet light, thereby achieving the functionality of filtering light rays, and the nano-rough surface 140 optimizes the transmittance of light rays that can pass through the optical multilayer stack structure layer 131, greatly reduces the reflection of light rays on the photosensitive surface IMG, and improves the receiving ratio of visible light.
[0077] The optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 may be multilayered and the number of layers may be 10 or more, and the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 having a large number of layers may be a stack of multiple sets of plating films. The number of layers may be 30 or more. The number of layers may be 36 or more. The number of layers may be 72 or more. The nano-rough surface 140 may be manufactured by a process such as nano-imprinting, etching, epitaxial, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0078] Please refer to Table 1, which shows the refractive index classification and thickness value of the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 in the first embodiment. The optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 is a superposition of two sets of plating films, but is not limited thereto. As can be seen from Table 1, adjacent layers of the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 have different refractive indices, thereby providing different reflectivities for light of different frequencies. Furthermore, H and L in the refractive index of Table 1 represent high and low refractive indices, respectively. [Table 1]

Furthermore, the object-side reflective element 120b is disposed on the object side of the reflective element 120a. This can further prevent non-imaging light rays from entering the camera module 10 to form glare.
[0080] As can be seen from FIGS. 1A-1C, the camera module 10 may further include a base BS operable relative to the object-side reflective element 120b to achieve optically stable functionality.

The transmitted image-side lens group 181 can optimize the light passing through the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131, thereby improving the optical quality. And the object-side lens group 182 can control the light passing through the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 to improve its effect.
[0083] Furthermore, the lens set 181b of the image-side lens group 181 and the object-side lens group 182 are fixed, but the lens set 181a of the image-side lens group 181 is movable.

This makes it possible to prevent light rays from being reflected by the holder 161 and causing glare.

The red light absorbing plate 171 can reduce the interference of red light with other light receiving pixels, and further improve the optical quality. In addition, the infrared light absorbing coating 132 can prevent the infrared light remaining after passing through the optical multilayer stacked structure layer 131 from affecting the image quality. In particular, the modularized filter element 170 can improve the assembly process, thereby ensuring manufacturability.
[0088] As can be seen from Figures 1E and 1F, the reflective element 120a may include a prism (not shown) including a light incident surface 121, at least one reflective surface 122, and a light exit surface 123 along the light path L, and the light exit surface 123 faces and is adjacent to the nano-rough surface 140 and the photosensitive surface IMG.
