The present disclosure relates to the field of optical lenses, more particular to a camera optical lens applicable to handheld terminal devices such as a smart phone and a digital camera, and the like.
In recent years, with the rise of smart phones, there is an increasing demand for miniature imaging lenses. However, photosensitive elements of ordinary imaging lenses are either charge coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide semiconductors (CMOS) sensors. As the pixel size of photosensitive elements decreases with the development of semiconductor manufacturing technologies and nowadays electronic products are developing toward more and better functions and a lightweight and thin structure, miniature imaging lenses having good imaging quality have become the mainstream in the current market.
To obtain better imaging quality, a conventional lens mounted on a camera of a mobile phone usually use a three-lens, four-lens, or even five-lens structure. With the development of technologies and the increasingly diversified demands of users, the pixel area of photosensitive elements is continuously decreased and increasingly higher requirements are imposed on the imaging quality of the system. To this end, a six-lens structure has been proposed. Although common six-lens structures have good optical performance, the setting of the Abbe number, the focal power, the distance between lenses, and the shapes of lenses are still not satisfactory, failing to meet the design requirements for ultra-thin structure, wide angle, and high luminous flux.
To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present disclosure clearer, the following further describes embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, a person of ordinary skilled in the art may understand that in the embodiments of the present disclosure, many technique details are described to make readers better understand the present disclosure. However, the technical solutions as claimed in the present disclosure may also be realized even without these technique details or various variations and modifications made based on the following embodiments.
Referring to the accompanying drawings, the present disclosure provides a camera optical lens 10.
In an embodiment, the aperture St is disposed between an object to be photographed and the first lens L1. The first lens L1 has positive refractive power, and has an object side which is a convex surface projecting outwardly and an image side which is a concave surface. The second lens L2 has negative refractive power, and has an object side which is a convex surface, and an image side which is a concave surface. The third lens L3 has positive refractive power, and has an object side which is a convex surface, and an image side which is a concave surface. The fourth lens L4 has negative refractive power, and has an object side which is a convex surface, and an image side which is a concave surface. The fifth lens L5 has positive refractive power, and has an object side and an image side which are both convex surfaces. The sixth lens L6 has negative refractive power, and in an embodiment, both an object side and an image side of the sixth lens L6 are concave surfaces.
It is defined herein that a focal length of the first lens L1 is f1, a focal length of the second lens L2 is f2, an on-axis distance from the image side of the first lens L1 to the object side of the second lens L2 is d2, a total optical length of the camera optical lens 10 is TTL, an Abbe number of the first lens L1 is v1, an Abbe number of the second lens L2 is v2, a curvature radius of the object side of the second lens L2 is R3, a curvature radius of the image side of the second lens L2 is R4, and the following conditions are satisfied:
With the foregoing configuration of lenses, by effectively using the focal length f1 of the first lens L1 and the focal length f2 of the second lens L2 that have a particular relationship, and the total optical length TTL and the on-axis distance d2 from the image side of the first lens L1 to the object side of the second lens L2 that have a particular relationship, the optical system is enabled to meet the design requirements for ultra-thin structure and wide angle. By using the Abbe number v1 of the first lens L1 and the Abbe number v2 of the second lens L2 that have a particular relationship, system aberrations are better corrected. The shape of the second lens L2 is specified, so that high-order aberrations such as spherical aberrations are effectively corrected to ensure the imaging quality. Therefore, the system has better optical performance and is more suitable for high-resolution portable imaging elements.
Preferably, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a curvature radius R1 of the object side of the first lens L1 and a curvature radius R2 of the image side of the first lens L1 satisfy the following conditions: −4.0≤(R1+R2)/(R1−R2)≤−1.8. By means of this design, optical aberrations of the system can be effectively corrected.
Preferably, a focal length f of the entire camera optical lens 10 and the focal length f2 of the second lens L2 satisfy the following conditions: −0.2≤f/f2≤0.0. By means of this design, focal power of the second lens is properly set while correcting the system aberrations, making it easier to achieve an ultra-thin structure.
Preferably, a curvature radius R11 of the object side of the sixth lens L6 and a curvature radius R12 of the image side of the sixth lens L6 satisfy the following conditions: 0.1≤(R11+R12)/(R11−R12)≤0.2. By means of this design, the shape of the sixth lens L6 is set, so that the system aberrations can be effectively corrected.
In addition, a surface of the lens can be set to be an aspheric surface, and the aspheric surface can be easily fabricated into a shape other than a spherical surface to obtain more control variables for reducing aberrations, thereby reducing the quantity of lenses used. Therefore, the total length of the camera optical lens in the present disclosure can be effectively reduced. In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the object side and the image side of each lens are all aspheric.
Preferably, an inflection point and/or a stationary point may be further disposed on the object side and/or the image side of the lens, to meet the requirement for high-quality imaging. Specific implementation solutions are described below.
