Description

Optical system and electronic device including the same

[0001] Examples of the present disclosure relate to optical systems and electronic devices including the same.

[0002] Optical devices, such as cameras capable of capturing images or videos, have been widely used. While film-based optical devices were dominant in the past, recently, digital cameras and video cameras equipped with solid-state image sensors, such as CCD (charge coupled device) or CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor), have become widely popular. Optical devices employing solid-state image sensors (CCD or CMOS) are gradually replacing film-based optical devices because they make it easier to store, duplicate, and transfer images compared to film-based optical devices.

[0003] To acquire high-quality images and / or videos, an optical device may include an optical system (or optical system) composed of multiple lenses and an image sensor having a high pixel count. The optical system can acquire high-quality (high-resolution) images and / or videos by, for example, having a low F-number (Fno) and low aberration. To obtain a low F-number and low aberration—in other words, to obtain bright and high-resolution images—it is necessary to combine multiple lenses. The pixel count of an image sensor increases as it contains more pixels, and an image sensor with a higher pixel count can acquire high-resolution (high-resolution) images and / or videos. To implement a high-pixel image sensor within the limited mounting space of an electronic device, multiple very small pixels, for example, micrometer-sized pixels, may be arranged. Recently, image sensors containing tens of millions to hundreds of millions of micrometer-sized pixels are being installed in portable electronic devices such as smartphones and tablets. Such high-performance optical devices can have the effect of inducing users to purchase electronic devices.

[0085] Referring to FIGS. 6 through 8b, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIGS. 1, 3 and 4) may include an optical system (300). An optical system (300) according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may constitute at least a part of a camera module of the electronic device (101) (e.g., the camera module (180) of FIG. 1, the camera module (290) of FIG. 2, the camera module (205) of FIG. 3 and / or the camera module (212) of FIG. 4).

[0086] Referring to FIGS. 6 to 8b, according to one embodiment, an optical system (300) may include a lens group (G) comprising a plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4), an image sensor (I) comprising an image plane (img) on ​​which an image is formed, an optical member (M) (or reflective member) disposed between the lens group (G) and the image sensor (I) and configured to change the path of light passing through the lens group (G), and a shield (B) disposed between the optical member (M) (e.g., a prism and / or a mirror) and the image sensor (I).

[0087] According to one embodiment, the lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) of the lens group (G) of the optical system (300) may be arranged on an optical axis (O) extending from the object side (or external object, obj) to the image side. According to one embodiment, the optical system (300) may be positioned on an optical axis (O) passing through the centers of a plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) from the object side to the image side.

[0088] In the present disclosure, the phrases “arranged on an optical axis (O) extending from the object side (or external object, obj) to the image side” or “aligned along the optical axis (O)” may refer to lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) being arranged sequentially from the object side toward the image sensor (I). In the embodiments described below, the ordinal numbers “first,” “second,” “third,” and “fourth” assigned to the lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) may refer to the order in which they are arranged in the direction toward the image sensor (I) from the object side. In one embodiment, the first lens (L1) may be referred to as the “first lens on the object side” or the “lens placed furthest from the image sensor (I),” and the third lens (L3) may be referred to as the “first lens on the image sensor (I) side” or the “lens placed closest to the image sensor (I).”

[0089] According to one embodiment, the image sensor (I) may include an image plane (img) which is a plane on which an image is formed and receives at least a portion of the light focused through an aperture (sto) and / or lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4). According to one embodiment, the image plane (img) of the image sensor (I) may be positioned at an angle with respect to a first direction in which the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) are arranged. For example, the image plane (img) of the image sensor (I) may be at an angle of about 90 degrees with respect to the first direction in which the lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) of the lens group (G) are arranged. Referring to FIG. 6, the lens group (G) may include a total of three lenses (L1, L2, L3).

[0090] In one embodiment, the optical member (M) may be configured to change the path of light transmitted from the lens group (G) one or more times and may include a reflective surface (M1). According to one embodiment, the optical member (M) may be configured to reflect the path of light transmitted from the lens group (G) one time. For example, light focused or guided by lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) may be incident through the incident surface (F1) of the optical member (M), refracted or reflected toward the image sensor (I) by the reflective surface (M1), and exited to the outside of the optical member (M) through the exit surface (F2).

[0091] According to one embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 and / or the electronic device (101) of FIG. 3 and FIG. 4) or a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1) may be configured to perform optical image stabilization (OIS) by rotating or tilting an optical member (M) around a first direction (e.g., z direction) in which the plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3 and / or L4) are arranged or aligned, and / or around a second direction (e.g., x direction) intersecting the first direction (e.g., pitch direction). Here, the second direction (e.g., x direction) may refer to a direction perpendicular to the first direction (e.g., z direction) that penetrates or exits FIG. 9a.

[0092] According to one embodiment, the shield (B) may include an opening through which light passes (e.g., the opening (B1) in FIG. 6, FIG. 7 and FIG. 8a). For example, among the light passing through the lens group (G) and the optical member (M), the central ray may pass through the opening (B1), and some of the peripheral ray may pass through the opening (B1) while other parts of the peripheral ray may be blocked by the shield (B). According to one embodiment, the aperture of the shield (B) (e.g., Bd in FIG. 9a) may be smaller than the effective aperture of the lens closest to the upper side among the lenses of the lens group (G) (e.g., the third lens (L3) in FIG. 6). According to one embodiment, the maximum diameter of the opening (B1) of the shield (B) (e.g., Bd in FIG. 9a) may be formed to be smaller than the diameter of the aperture (sto). As the maximum diameter of the opening (B1) of the shield (B) (e.g., Bd in FIG. 9a) is set as above, the depth of focus of the periphery of the optical system (300) can be increased, the diffraction limit can be reduced, and the deterioration of optical performance due to rotation or tilt of the optical member (M) for image stabilization (OIS) can be reduced.

[0093] Referring to FIGS. 7, 8a, and 8b, according to one embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIGS. 1, 3, and 4) may further include a barrel (10) and a case (20) in which an optical system (300) is housed.

According to one embodiment, the first part (Ba) may be integrally or fixedly connected to the case (20), and the second part (Bb) may be configured to be separable from the case (20) and the first part (Ba). However, the configuration of the shield (B) of the present disclosure is not limited, and for example, the shield (B) may be configured to be detachably connected to the case (20) as a single member, or as an example, the shield (B) may be formed integrally with the case (20). For example, if the shield (B) is configured as a separable type including a first part (Ba) and a second part (Bb) that are detachable from each other, the processing (e.g., etching) to form an opening (B1) in the shield (B) may be easier compared to the case where the shield (B) is configured as a single member.

[0094] According to one embodiment, a first part (Ba) and a second part (Bb) may together form or define an opening (B1). According to one embodiment, a portion of the opening (B1) of the shield (B) may be defined by the first part (Ba), and the remainder of the opening (B1) may be defined by the second part (Bb). According to one embodiment, a second part (Bb) may be included that is detachably connected to the first part (Ba) and forms the shield (B) together with the first part (Ba).

[0095] According to one embodiment, the shield (B) may include a third part (Bw) connected to the end of a second part (Bb). For example, the third part (Bw) may intersect or be perpendicular to the second part (Bb). For example, the third part (Bw) may form a 'T' shape or an 'L' shape with the second part (Bb). According to one embodiment, the third part (Bw) may include a first flare prevention structure (S1) formed on a surface (or inner surface) facing the inside of the case (20) of the third part (Bw). For example, the first flare prevention structure (S1) may be positioned before and / or after the shield (B) and configured to prevent flare that occurs by passing through the optical member (M) and reflecting from the inner surface of the case (20). For example, the first flare prevention structure (S1) may include a plurality of protrusions. According to one embodiment, the case (20) may include a second flare prevention structure (S2) formed on a surface (or inner surface) facing the internal space. For example, the second flare prevention structure (S2) may be configured to reflect a portion of the light passing through the optical member (M). For example, the second flare prevention structure (S2) may include a plurality of protrusions.

In the embodiments described below, the ordinal numbers “first,” “second,” “third,” and “fourth” assigned to the lenses (L1, L2, L3) may refer to the order in which they are arranged in the direction toward the image sensor (I) from the object side. In one embodiment, the first lens (L1) may be referred to as the “first lens on the object side” or the “lens placed furthest from the image sensor (I),” and the third lens (L3) may be referred to as the “first lens on the image sensor (I) side” or the “lens placed closest to the image sensor (I).”

[0104] In describing the configuration of each lens (L1, L2, L3) below, for example, the object side may indicate the direction in which the object (obj) is located, and the image side may indicate the direction in which the image plane (img) where the image is formed is located. According to one embodiment, the lenses (L1, L2, L3) may each include an 'object side surface' which is a surface facing the object (obj) and an 'image side surface' which is a surface facing the image (or image sensor (I)). For example, the first lens (L1) may include an object side surface (S2) and an image side surface (S3). For example, the second lens (L2) may include an object side surface (S4) and an image side surface (S5). For example, the third lens (L3) may include an object side surface (S6) and an image side surface (S7).

[0105] In the following detailed description, the shapes of the subject side surface, which is the surface of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) facing the subject (obj) side, and / or the image side surface, which is the surface facing the image sensor (I) or the imaging plane (img), may be described using the terms "concave" or "convex." Such references to the shapes of the lens surfaces may be descriptions of the shape of the point intersecting the optical axis (O) or the shape of the "paraxial region" around the point intersecting the optical axis (O). "The subject side surface has a concave shape" may describe a shape in which the center of the radius of curvature of the subject side surface is located on the subject (obj) side. "The subject side surface has a convex shape" may describe a shape in which the center of the radius of curvature of the subject side surface is located on the image sensor (I) side. Therefore, even if one surface of a lens (the paraxial region of that surface) is described as having a convex shape, the edge region surrounding the paraxial region of the lens can be concave. Similarly, even if one surface of a lens (the paraxial region of that surface) is described as having a concave shape, the edge region surrounding the paraxial region of the lens can be convex.

[0106] According to one embodiment, at least some of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) may have at least one of the subject side surface or image side surface formed as an aspheric surface. For example, by forming the surfaces of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) as aspheric surfaces, spherical aberration that may occur in the lenses can be suppressed, coma in the periphery of the image sensor (I) can be prevented, astigmatism can be easily controlled, and the occurrence of image plane curvature from the center to the periphery of the image plane (img) of the image sensor (I) can be reduced.

[0107] In one embodiment, the first lens (L1) is the lens closest to the subject (obj) side (or the first lens from the subject (obj) side) among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G), and may have positive refractive power. According to one embodiment, the subject side surface (S3) of the first lens (L1) may have a shape that is convex toward the subject (obj). For example, the shape of the subject side surface (S3) that is convex toward the subject (obj) can suppress the increase in spherical aberration due to the large aperture of the lenses (L1, L2, L3). For example, the subject side surface (S3) and / or image side surface (S4) of the first lens (L1) may be formed as an aspherical surface.

[0108] In one embodiment, the first lens (L1) may be composed of an extra low dispersion lens and the second lens (L2) may be composed of a high dispersion lens, and accordingly, the chromatic aberration correction performance and resolution of the optical system (400) may be secured. According to one embodiment, the lenses (L1, L2, L3) may be made of a material including a synthetic resin. The number and material of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the present disclosure are not limited, and, for example, additional lenses may be included or at least one lens may be made of glass material.

[0109] In one embodiment, the second lens (L2) is the second lens from the object (obj) side among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) and may have negative refractive power. According to one embodiment, the image side surface (S6) of the second lens (L2) may be formed concavely toward the image side. The shape of the image side surface (S6) concave toward the image side may contribute to reducing or slimming the total length of the optical system (400) and improving aberrations. For example, the object side surface (S5) and / or image side surface (S6) of the second lens (L2) may be formed as an aspherical surface.

[0110] In one embodiment, the third lens (L3) is the third lens from the object (obj) side among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) and may have a positive refractive power. According to one embodiment, the image side surface (S8) of the third lens (L3) may be formed convex toward the image side. This shape of the third lens (L3) may be advantageous for correcting peripheral aberrations. For example, the object side surface (S7) and / or image side surface (S8) of the third lens (L3) may be formed as an aspherical surface.

[0111] According to one embodiment, the image sensor (I) may include an image plane (img) that receives at least a portion of light focused through an aperture (sto) and / or lenses (L1, L2, L3) and forms an image. According to one embodiment, the image sensor (I) is a sensor mounted on a circuit board or the like and positioned in alignment with an optical axis, and may respond to light. The image sensor (I) may include, for example, a sensor such as a CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensor or a charge coupled device (CCD). The image sensor (I) is not limited thereto and may include, for example, various elements that convert an image of a subject (obj) into an electrical image signal. The image sensor (I) may acquire an image of a subject (obj) by detecting brightness information, grayscale ratio information, color information, etc., of the subject (obj) from light that has passed through a plurality of lenses. According to one embodiment, the imaging plane (img) of the image sensor (I) may be positioned at an angle with respect to a first direction in which the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) are arranged. For example, the imaging plane (img) of the image sensor (I) may be at an angle of approximately 90 degrees with respect to the first direction in which the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) are arranged.

[0112] In one embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 and / or the electronic device (101) of FIG. 3 and FIG. 4) or a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1) may be configured to perform a focus adjustment (e.g., auto focusing (AF)) operation by moving at least one of a plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3) in a first direction in which the plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3) are arranged. Here, the first direction may mean a virtual axis (or axial direction) passing through the centers of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) while the lenses (L1, L2, L3) are stationary, and may be parallel to a part of the optical axis (O). However, the configuration that moves to perform focus adjustment (e.g., autofocus (AF)) operation is not limited to multiple lenses (L1, L2, L3), and may be performed by moving an optical member (M) and / or an image sensor (I) under the control of an electronic device (101) and / or a processor (120).

[0113] According to one embodiment, an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1 and / or the electronic device (101) of FIG. 3 and FIG. 4) or a processor (e.g., the processor (120) of FIG. 1) may be configured to perform optical image stabilization (OIS) by rotating or tilting an optical member (M) around a first direction (e.g., z direction) in which the plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3) are arranged or aligned, and / or around a second direction (e.g., x direction) intersecting the first direction (e.g., pitch direction). Here, the second direction (e.g., x direction) may refer to a direction perpendicular to the first direction (e.g., z direction) that penetrates or exits FIG. 9a. To perform image stabilization (OIS), the optical member (M) may be rotated or tilted within an angle range of about 1.5 degrees to about 2.5 degrees. According to one embodiment, when the optical member (M) is rotated or tilted, the lenses (L1, L2, L3) and / or the image sensor (I) may be maintained in a stationary state. However, the configuration for moving or rotating to perform image stabilization (OIS) is not limited to the optical member (M), and may be performed by moving a plurality of lenses (L1, L2, L3) and / or the image sensor (I) under the control of the electronic device (101) and / or the processor (120).

[0114] According to one embodiment, the optical member (M) may be positioned between the lens group (G) and the image sensor (I). According to one embodiment, the optical member (M) may include an optical system (400) to implement a folded optical system (or folded camera). The optical member (M) may be configured to refract and / or reflect light that passes through the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) and is incident on the image sensor (I).

[0115] In one embodiment, the optical member (M) may be configured to change the path of light transmitted from the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) one or more times and may include a reflective surface (M1). According to one embodiment, the optical member (M) may be configured to reflect the path of light transmitted from the lens group (G) one time. For example, light focused or guided by the lenses (L1, L2, L3) may be incident through the subject side surface (S9) of the optical member (M) (e.g., the incident surface (F1) in FIGS. 7 to 8b), refracted or reflected toward the image sensor (I) by the reflective surface (S10) (e.g., the reflective surface (M1) in FIGS. 7 to 8b), and may be emitted to the outside of the optical member (M) through the image side surface (S10) (e.g., the exit surface (F2) in FIGS. 7 to 8b). For example, the path of the chief ray of a beam of light passing through the optical member (M) may intersect or be orthogonal to the chief ray incident on the optical system (400). According to one embodiment, the angle (e.g., α in FIG. 5) that the reflective surface (M1) makes with a plane perpendicular to the chief ray of the beam of light incident on the optical member (M) (e.g., incident plane or subject side surface (S8)) may be about 40 to about 50 degrees, for example, about 45 degrees.

[0116] According to one embodiment, the optical member (M) may be a prism comprising at least one reflective surface (M1). For example, the cross-section of such a prism parallel to the optical axis (O) may be triangular. For example, if the reflective surface (M1) is configured to reflect light without refraction, the optical member (M) may be a mirror comprising the reflective surface (M1).

[0117] For example, when including a high-performance, large-sized image sensor (I), the quality of the captured image of an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 3 and FIG. 4) may be improved. However, as the image sensor (I) becomes larger, the corresponding optical system (400) may be difficult to mount on the slimmed-down electronic device (101). For example, the thickness of the electronic device may increase due to the length or width of the image sensor (I). Accordingly, according to one embodiment, the optical system (400) includes at least one optical member (M), thereby improving the design freedom regarding the implementation of the optical path to the image sensor (I) and securing a sufficient rear focal length and / or good telephoto performance. Accordingly, an optical system with high magnification (e.g., a telephoto camera) and / or a large-sized image sensor (I) can be easily mounted in a confined space, such as a miniaturized and / or slimmed-down electronic device (101).

[0118] According to one embodiment, the shield (B) may include an opening through which light passes (e.g., the opening (B1) in FIG. 6, 7 and 8a). For example, among the light passing through the lens group (G) and the optical member (M), the central ray may pass through the opening (B1), and some of the peripheral rays may pass through the opening (B1) while other parts of the peripheral rays may be blocked by the shield (B). According to one embodiment, the aperture of the shield (B) (e.g., Bd in FIG. 9a) may be smaller than the effective aperture of the lens closest to the upper side among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) (e.g., the third lens (L3)). According to one embodiment, the maximum diameter of the opening (B1) of the shield (B) (e.g., Bd in FIG. 9a) may be formed to be smaller than the diameter of the aperture (sto). As the maximum diameter of the opening (B1) of the shield (B) (e.g., Bd in FIG. 9a) is set as above, the depth of focus of the periphery of the optical system (400) can be increased, the diffraction limit can be reduced, and the deterioration of optical performance due to rotation or tilt of the optical member (M) for image stabilization (OIS) can be reduced.

[0119] According to one embodiment, the aperture (sto) may be positioned facing the upper side of the lens closest to the upper side (e.g., the third lens (L3)) among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G), or facing the upper side surface of the said lens (e.g., the upper side surface (S7) of the third lens (L3)). According to one embodiment, the aperture (sto) may define an area where light focused and guided by the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) is incident on the optical member (M). According to one embodiment, the aperture (sto) may be positioned spaced apart from or on the upper side surface (S7) of the lens (L3) closest to the upper side among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G). According to one embodiment, the aperture (sto) may be positioned between the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) or between the subject (obj) and the first lens (L1).

[0120] According to one embodiment, the optical system (400) may further include an infrared blocking filter (F). According to one embodiment, the infrared blocking filter (F) may include a subject side surface (S13) and an image side surface (S14). For example, the ultraviolet blocking filter (F) may block light (e.g., infrared) in a wavelength band that is not visible to the user's naked eye but is detected by the film or image sensor (I). For example, in an optical system or electronic device (101) intended for detecting infrared, the infrared blocking filter (F) may be replaced with a pass filter that transmits infrared and blocks visible light. For example, the infrared blocking filter (F) may be aligned along the optical axis (O) with the lenses (L1, L2, L3), aperture (sto), shield (B), and / or image sensor (I) of the lens group (G).

[0121] The radius of curvature (or radius) of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the present disclosure, the thickness, the effective focal length (EFL), back focal length (BFL), total track length (TTL), or image height (IH) of the image sensor (I) of the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) may all have units of mm unless specifically noted. Additionally, the radius of curvature (or radius), effective focal length (EFL), TTL, SD, thickness, or image height (IH) of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) may be distances measured along the optical axis (O).

[0122] According to one embodiment, the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) according to the embodiments described below with reference to the embodiments of FIGS. 6 to 8b, FIGS. 9a to 9d, and FIGS. 10a to 12d can satisfy [Equation 1], [Equation 2], and [Equation 3] described below.

[0123] According to one embodiment, the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) can satisfy the following [Equation 1].

[0124] [Equation 1]

[0125] 0.6 < Bd / LSd < 0.8

[0126] Here, Bd in [Equation 1] is the maximum diameter of the opening of the shield (B), and LSd may be the effective diameter of the lens closest to the upper side among the lenses (L1, L2, L3) of the lens group (G) (e.g., the third lens (L3)).

[0127] According to one embodiment, if the value of Bd / LSd is greater than or equal to the upper limit of [Equation 1], the effect of blocking ambient light by the shield (B) may be reduced, and performance degradation may occur due to rotation or tilt operation of the optical member (M). If the value of Bd / LSd is less than or equal to the lower limit of [Equation 1], the F-number of the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) may increase, resulting in a dark optical system, and a decrease in the ambient light ratio may occur.

[0128] According to one embodiment, the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) can satisfy the following [Equation 2].

[0129] [Equation 2]

[0130] 2 < vd1 / vd2 < 3

[0131] Here, vd1 may be the Abbe number of the first lens (L1) at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, and vd2 may be the Abbe number of the second lens (L2) at a wavelength of 587.6 nm. According to one embodiment, if the value of vd1 / vd2 is greater than the upper limit of [Equation 2], the chromatic aberration correction performance deteriorates, making it difficult to secure the optical performance of the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700).

[0132] According to one embodiment, the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) can satisfy the following [Equation 3].

[0133] [Equation 3]

[0134] TL1 / TL < 0.3

[0135] Here, TL1 is the distance from the subject side surface (S2) of the first lens (L1) to the subject side surface (S9) of the optical member (M), and TL may be the distance from the subject side surface (S2) of the first lens (L1) to the image plane (img) of the image sensor (I).

[0136] [Equation 3] relates to the height of the lens protruding from the incident surface (S9) of the optical member (M), and if the value of TL1 / TL is greater than the upper limit of [Equation 3], a problem may occur in which the amount of protrusion of the optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) increases when mounted on an electronic device (e.g., the electronic device (101) of FIG. 1, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4).

[0137] Table 1 below shows the numerical values ​​for [Equation 1] to [Equation 3] of optical systems (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) according to the embodiments described below with reference to the embodiments of FIGS. 6, 7, 8a and 8b, the embodiments of FIGS. 9a to 9d, and FIGS. 10a to 12d. Referring to Table 1, it can be seen that the numerical values ​​for [Equation 1] to [Equation 3] of optical systems (300, 400, 500, 600, 700) according to the embodiments of the present disclosure satisfy the numerical range of [Equation 1] to [Equation 3] described above.

[0139] In one embodiment, the optical system (400) may be manufactured to satisfy the shapes of the lenses (L1, L2, L3) (e.g., lens surfaces) described above and the [Equation 1], [Equation 2], and [Equation 3] described above, and to have the specifications exemplified in the following [Table 2]. In [Table 2], lens surface 1 may exemplify the gap between the first lens (L1) and the object (obj), and the measured value of the thickness may be the distance of the gap or the air gap. The optical system (400) implemented with the specifications of the following [Table 2] may be an optical system having a combined focal length (EFL) of about 12.2 mm, an F-number (Fno) of about 3.4, a TL of about 12.27 mm, a TL1 of about 3.17 mm, and an image height (IH) of about 2.28 mm. Here, TL1 is the distance from the subject side surface (S2) of the first lens (L1) to the subject side surface (S9) of the optical member (M), and TL may be the distance from the subject side surface (S2) of the first lens (L1) to the image plane (img) of the image sensor (I). Here, the image height (IH) may be the effective image height of the image sensor (I).

[0177] FIG. 12b is a graph showing the spherical aberration of an optical system (700) according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein the horizontal axis represents the coefficient of longitudinal spherical aberration and the vertical axis represents the distance from the optical axis (O) normalized, showing the change in longitudinal spherical aberration according to the wavelength of light. Longitudinal spherical aberration is shown for light with wavelengths of, for example, 656.3000 (NM, nanometer), 587.6000 (NM), 546.1000 (NM), 486.1000 (NM), and 435.8000 (NM). FIG. 12c is a graph showing astigmatic field curves for light of wavelength 546.0700 (NM) of an optical system (700) according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, where 'X' exemplifies a sagittal plane and 'Y' exemplifies a tangential plane or meridional plane. FIG. 12d is a graph showing distortion for light of wavelength 547.6000 (NM) of an optical system (700) according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. Since the optical system for implementing a high-magnification telephoto camera has a long focal length, it may include an optical member to reduce the overall thickness or volume of the optical system. For example, the optical member may be placed between an object and a lens group, between a lens group and an image sensor, or between lenses. For example, in the case of a first structure in which the optical member is placed between an object and a lens group, a method of correcting image shaking caused by external impact by rotating the optical member may be applied. However, in the case of the first structure, a technique to implement an asymmetric lens by generally removing a portion of the effective diameter of the lens to secure the brightness of the optical system may be applied, and accordingly, the difficulty of manufacturing the lens increases and may become a factor causing a difference in horizontal resolution.For example, when an optical element is placed between lenses, image shake can be corrected by moving the image sensor or rotating the optical element. However, in this case, the lenses are separated into two or more groups, which increases the difficulty of manufacturing the optical system and may make it difficult to ensure the performance of the optical system (e.g., aberration control performance). For example, when an optical element is placed between a lens group and an image sensor, image shake can be corrected by moving the image sensor or moving the lens; in this case, the structure of the optical system becomes complex to implement the movement of the image sensor, which may increase the difficulty and cost of manufacturing.

[0178] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an optical system and an electronic device including the same may be provided, which include an optical member disposed between a lens group and an image sensor, and are configured to correct image shake caused by factors such as external impact through the rotation of the optical member, while ensuring high magnification (e.g., 3x or more) and high resolution. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an optical system may be provided in which an aperture and / or a shield is disposed between the optical member and the image sensor. The shield is formed to have an aperture smaller than the aperture of the image side surface of the lens closest to the optical member to realize a bright optical system, and by blocking ambient light to improve the ambient light ratio and reduce the diffraction limit, the degradation of optical performance during the rotation of the optical member for image shake may be reduced. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the shield may be configured as an integral or separate type with respect to a case housing the optical system, and in the case of a separate type, a process of etching a through hole in the center of the shield may be easy. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a structure may be provided at the top of the shield to prevent flare generated by reflection from the upper wall of a case housing an optical system.

[0179] According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an electronic device (101) may be provided. The electronic device may include an optical system (300, 400, 500, 600, 700, optical system). The above optical system may include a lens group (G) comprising lenses arranged along an optical axis (O) in a direction from the object side to the image side, a first lens (L1) having a positive refractive power and having an object side surface (S2) that is closest to the object side and is convex toward the object side among the lenses, and a second lens (L2) having a negative refractive power and having a negative refractive power and being second closest to the object side among the lenses and formed concave toward the image side, an image sensor (I) having an image plane (img) where an image is formed, an optical member (M) disposed between the lens group and the image sensor and configured to change the path of light passing through the lens group, an aperture (sto), and a shield (B, 24) disposed between the optical member and the image sensor, the shield including an opening (B1) through which light passes. The above optical system can satisfy the following [Equation 1].

[0180] [Equation 1]

[0181] 0.6 < Bd / LSd < 0.8

[0182] (Bd is the maximum diameter of the opening of the shield, and LSd is the effective diameter of the lens closest to the upper side among the lenses of the lens group).

[0183] According to one embodiment, the optical system can satisfy the following [Equation 2].

[0184] [Equation 2]

[0185] 2 < vd1 / vd2 < 3

[0186] (The above vd1 is the Abbe number of the first lens at a wavelength of 587.6 nm, and vd2 is the Abbe number of the second lens at a wavelength of 587.6 nm).

[0187] According to one embodiment, the optical system can satisfy the following [Equation 3].

[0188] [Equation 3]

[0189] TL1 / TL < 0.3

[0190] (The above TL1 is the distance from the subject side of the first lens to the subject side of the optical member, and the above TL is the distance from the subject side of the first lens to the imaging plane of the image sensor).

[0191] According to one embodiment, the shield may include a first part (Ba) and a second part (Bb) which is detachably configured to the first part and configured to form or define the opening together with the first part.

[0192] According to one embodiment, the shield may include a flare prevention structure (S1) comprising a third part (Bw) disposed at the outermost end of the second part and a plurality of protrusions formed on one surface of the third part.

[0193] According to one embodiment, the system may further include a case (20) formed to accommodate the optical system, and the case may include a second flare prevention structure (S2) comprising a plurality of protrusions configured to reflect a portion of the light passing through the shield.

[0194] According to one embodiment, the number of lenses may be three.

[0195] According to one embodiment, the lenses may include a synthetic resin.
