The present disclosure generally relates to optical lens, in particular to a camera optical lens suitable for handheld terminals, such as smart phones and digital cameras, and imaging devices, such as monitors or PC lens.
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 lens 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 structure gradually appear in lens designs. There is an urgent need for ultra-thin wide-angle camera lenses which with good optical characteristics and fully corrected chromatic aberration.
