The present disclosure relates to the field of optical lens, and more particularly, to a camera optical lens suitable for handheld terminal devices, such as smart phones or digital cameras, and imaging devices, such as monitors or PC lenses.
With the emergence of smart phones in recent years, the demand for miniature camera lens is increasing day by day, but in general the photosensitive devices of camera lens are nothing more than Charge Coupled Device (CCD) or Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor Sensor (CMOS sensor), and as the progress of the semiconductor manufacturing technology makes the pixel size of the photosensitive devices become smaller, plus the current development trend of electronic products towards better functions and thinner and smaller dimensions, miniature camera lenses with good imaging quality therefore have become a mainstream in the market. In order to obtain better imaging quality, the lens that is traditionally equipped in mobile phone cameras adopts a three-piece or four-piece lens structure. Also, with the development of technology and the increase of the diverse demands of users, and as the pixel area of photosensitive devices is becoming smaller and smaller and the requirement of the system on the imaging quality is improving constantly, the five-piece, six-piece and seven-piece lens structures gradually appear in lens designs. There is an urgent need for ultra-thin, wide-angle camera lenses with good optical characteristics and fully corrected chromatic aberration.
Many aspects of the exemplary embodiment can be better understood with reference to the following drawings. The components in the drawings are not necessarily drawn to scale, the emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the present disclosure. Moreover, in the drawings, like reference numerals designate corresponding parts throughout the several views.
The present disclosure will hereinafter be described in detail with reference to several exemplary embodiments. To make the technical problems to be solved, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present disclosure more apparent, the present disclosure is described in further detail together with the figure and the embodiments.

Herein, a focal length of the camera optical lens 10 is defined as f, and a focal length of the first lens L1 is defined as f1. The camera optical lens 10 should satisfy a condition of 4.00≤f1/f≤7.00, which specifies a ratio of the focal length f1 of the first lens L1 and the focal length f of the camera optical lens 10. If the lower limit of the specified value is exceeded, although it would facilitate development of ultra-thin lenses, the positive refractive power of the first lens L1 will be too strong, and thus it is difficult to correct the problem like an aberration and it is also unfavorable for development of wide-angle lenses. On the contrary, if the upper limit of the specified value is exceeded, the positive refractive power of the first lens L1 would become too weak, and it is then difficult to develop ultra-thin lenses. Preferably, 4.08≤f1/f≤7.00.
A curvature radius of an object side surface of the fifth lens L5 is defined as R9 and an on-axis thickness of the fifth lens L5 is defined as d9. The camera optical lens 10 further satisfies a condition of 5.00≤R9/d9≤9.00 which specifies a shape of the fifth lens L5.
