OPTICAL IMAGING SYSTEM

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims the benefit under 35 USC 119(a) of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2021-00781 42 filed on Jun. 16, 2021 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.

BACKGROUND
1. Field

The following description relates to an optical imaging system

2. Description of Related Art

A camera has been used in a portable electronic device such as a smartphone, and in accordance with the demand for miniaturization of a portable electronic device, miniaturization of a camera mounted in a portable electronic device has been necessary.

Further, a telephoto camera has been employed in a portable electronic device to obtain a zoom effect in imaging a subject with a narrow field of view.

However, when a plurality of lenses is disposed in a thickness direction of a portable electronic device as in a general camera, a thickness of the portable electronic device may increase as the number of lenses increases, such that it may be difficult to reduce a size of the portable electronic device.

In particular, since a telephoto camera has a relatively long focal length, it may be difficult to apply a telephoto camera to a portable electronic device having a thin thickness.

Also, in a camera having a focus adjustment function and an optical image stabilization function, generally, a lens module including a plurality of lenses may move. In this case, power consumption may increase due to a weight of the lens module.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following detailed description is provided to assist the reader in gaining a comprehensive understanding of the methods, apparatuses, and/or systems described herein. However, various changes, modifications, and equivalents of the methods, apparatuses, and/or systems described herein will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art. The sequences of operations described herein are merely examples, and are not limited to those set forth herein, but may be changed, as will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, with the exception of operations necessarily occurring in a certain order. Also, descriptions of functions and constructions that would be well known to one of ordinary skill in the art may be omitted for increased clarity and conciseness.

The features described herein may be embodied in different forms, and are not to be construed as being limited to the examples described herein. Rather, the examples described herein have been provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to one of ordinary skill in the art.

Herein, it is to be noted that use of the term “may” with respect to an embodiment or example, e.g., as to what an embodiment or example may include or implement, means that at least one embodiment or example exists in which such a feature is included or implemented while all examples and examples are not limited thereto.

Throughout the specification, when an element, such as a layer, region, or substrate, is described as being “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” another element, it may be directly “on,” “connected to,” or “coupled to” the other element, or there may be one or more other elements intervening therebetween. In contrast, when an element is described as being “directly on,” “directly connected to,” or “directly coupled to” another element, there can be no other elements intervening therebetween.

As used herein, the term “and/or” includes any one and any combination of any two or more of the associated listed items.

Although terms such as “first,” “second,” and “third” may be used herein to describe various members, components, regions, layers, or sections, these members, components, regions, layers, or sections are not to be limited by these terms. Rather, these terms are only used to distinguish one member, component, region, layer, or section from another member, component, region, layer, or section. Thus, a first member, component, region, layer, or section referred to in examples described herein may also be referred to as a second member, component, region, layer, or section without departing from the teachings of the examples.

Spatially relative terms such as “above,” “upper,” “below,” and “lower” may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element's relationship to another element as illustrated in the figures. Such spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures is turned over, an element described as being “above” or “upper” relative to another element will then be “below” or “lower” relative to the other element. Thus, the term “above” encompasses both the above and below orientations depending on the spatial orientation of the device. The device may also be oriented in other ways (for example, rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations), and the spatially relative terms used herein are to be interpreted accordingly.

The terminology used herein is for describing various examples only, and is not to be used to limit the disclosure. The articles “a,” “an,” and “the” are intended to include the plural forms as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. The terms “comprises,” “includes,” and “has” specify the presence of stated features, numbers, operations, members, elements, and/or combinations thereof, but do not preclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, operations, members, elements, and/or combinations thereof.

Due to manufacturing techniques and/or tolerances, variations of the shapes illustrated in the drawings may occur. Thus, the examples described herein are not limited to the specific shapes illustrated in the drawings, but include changes in shape occurring during manufacturing.

The features of the examples described herein may be combined in various manners as will be apparent after gaining an understanding of the disclosure of this application. Further, although the examples described herein have a variety of configurations, other configurations are possible as will be apparent after gaining an understanding of the disclosure of this application.

The drawings may not be to scale, and the relative sizes, proportions, and depictions of elements in the drawings may be exaggerated for clarity, illustration, and convenience.

Hereinafter, examples of the present disclosure will be described as follows with respect to the accompanying drawings.

In the lens diagrams, a thickness, a size, and a shape of the lens are exaggerated, and in particular, the shape of a spherical or aspherical surface presented in the lens diagram is merely an example and is not limited thereto.

An optical imaging system according to the various examples may include a lens unit, and the lens unit may include a plurality of lenses disposed along an optical axis. The plurality of lenses may be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance along the optical axis. The plurality of lenses may include at least three lenses.

For example, the optical imaging system may include three or more lenses.

In the various examples, an optical imaging system having three, four or five lenses is described, but is the various examples are not limited thereto. For example, the optical imaging system may include six or more lenses.

The forwardmost lens may refer to a lens most adjacent to an object-side surface (or a reflective member), and the rearmost lens may refer to a lens most adjacent to the image sensor.

Also, in each lens, the first surface may refer to a surface adjacent to an object side (or may refer to an object-side surface), and the second surface may refer to a surface adjacent to an image side (or may refer to an image-side surface). Also, in the various examples, a radius of curvature, a thickness, and the like of the lens are indicated in millimeters (mm), and an angle is indicated in degrees.

In the description of the shape of each lens, the configuration in which one surface is convex indicates that a paraxial region portion of the surface is convex, and the configuration in which one surface is concave indicates that a paraxial region portion of the surface is concave.

The paraxial region may refer to a narrow region adjacent to the optical axis.

The imaging plane may refer to a virtual plane on which a focus is formed by the optical imaging system. Alternatively, the imaging surface may refer to one surface of the image sensor on which light is received.

The optical imaging system in the various examples may include at least three lenses.

For example, the optical imaging system may include a first lens, a second lens, and a third lens arranged in order from an object side. The first lens may be a forwardmost lens, and a third lens may be a rearmost lens.

Alternatively, the optical imaging system may include a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, and a fourth lens arranged in order from an object side. The first lens may be a forwardmost lens, and a fourth lens may be a rearmost lens.

Alternatively, the optical imaging system may include a first lens, a second lens, a third lens, a fourth lens, and a fifth lens arranged in order from an object side. The first lens may be a forwardmost lens, and the fifth lens may be a rearmost lens.

The optical imaging system in the various examples may further include components other than the lenses.

For example, the optical imaging system may further include a reflective member having a reflective surface for changing a path of light. For example, the reflective member may be implemented as a mirror or a prism.

The reflective member may be disposed more adjacent to the object side than the plurality of lenses. For example, the reflective member may be disposed in front of the first lens (more adjacent to the object side than the first lens). Accordingly, the lens disposed most adjacent to the object side may be disposed most adjacent to the reflection member.

The optical imaging system may further include an image sensor for converting an incident image of a subject into an electrical signal.

The optical imaging system may further include an infrared cut-off filter (hereinafter, referred to as a filter) for blocking infrared rays. The filter may be disposed between the lens disposed most adjacent to the image sensor (rearmost lens) and the image sensor.

The overall lenses included in the optical imaging system in the various examples may be formed of a plastic material.

In the optical imaging system in the various examples, a refractive index of the second lens may be greater than that of the first lens. Also, an average refractive index of the lenses other than the first lens may be configured to be greater than the refractive index of the first lens.

The optical imaging system in the various examples may be configured such that the image sensor may move to adjust a focus or to correct shaking of an image. For example, the image sensor of the optical imaging system in the various examples may move in the optical axis direction and/or in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis.

In other words, the image sensor may move in the optical axis direction to focus on a subject.

Also, when shaking occurs during imaging due to user hand-shake, or the like, the shaking may be corrected by applying a relative displacement corresponding to the shaking to the image sensor.

Although not illustrated in the drawings, a driving unit may be provided to move the image sensor, and the driving unit may include a VCM actuator using a magnet and a coil.

The optical imaging system in the various examples may have the characteristics of a telephoto lens having a relatively narrow field of view and a long focal length.

Each of the plurality of lenses may have at least one aspherical surface.

In other words, at least one of the first surface and the second surface of each lens may be an aspherical surface. The aspherical surface of each lens may be represented by Equation

$\begin{matrix} Z = \frac{{cY}^{2}}{1 + \sqrt{1 - (1 + K) c^{2} Y^{2}}} + {AY}^{4} + {BY}^{6} + {CY}^{8} + {DY}^{10} + {EY}^{12} + {FY}^{14} + {GY}^{16} + {HY}^{18} + {JY}^{20} \dots & [Equation 1] \end{matrix}$

In Equation 1, c is a curvature of the lens (a reciprocal of the radius of curvature), K is a conic constant, and Y is a distance from one point on the aspherical surface of the lens to the optical axis. Also, constants A to J are aspheric coefficients. Z is a distance (SAG) from one point on the aspherical surface of the lens to a vertex of the aspherical surface.

The total focal length f of the optical imaging system in the fifth example may be 22 mm, Fno may be 3.8, a half the diagonal length of the imaging plane 570 may be 4.2 mm, and a combined focal length of the second lens 520 to the fifth lens 550 may be −9.85 mm.

In the fifth example, the first lens 510 may have positive refractive power, and first and second surfaces of the first lens 510 may be convex.

The second lens 520 may have negative refractive power, and first and second surfaces of the second lens 520 may be concave.

The third lens 530 may have positive refractive power, and the first surface of the third lens 530 may be convex, and the second surface of the third lens 530 may be concave.

The fourth lens 540 may have negative refractive power, the first surface of the fourth lens 540 may be convex, and the second surface of the fourth lens 540 may be concave.

The fifth lens 550 may have positive refractive power, the first surface of the fifth lens 550 may be convex, and the second surface of the fifth lens 550 may be concave.

The optical imaging system in the fifth example may be configured such that the image sensor IS may move for focus adjustment. For example, the image sensor IS of the optical imaging system in the fifth example may move in the optical axis direction.

Table 18 lists a moving distance AFS of the image sensor IS in the optical axis direction according to the object distance OD in the optical imaging system in the fifth example.

The optical imaging system in the fifth example may satisfy the conditional expression as below:

Conditional Expression 18: 0.4 mm<AFS_1.0<0.6 mm

In the conditional expression, AFS_1.0 is a moving distance of the image sensor IS in the optical axis direction with respect to an object distance OD of 1.0 meter.

The optical imaging system in the fifth example may be configured such that the image sensor IS may move for optical image stabilization. For example, the image sensor IS of the optical imaging system in the fifth example may move in a direction perpendicular to the optical axis.

Table 19 lists the moving distance of the image sensor IS in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis according to the amount of shaking in the optical imaging system in the fifth example. The amount of shaking may be measured by a shaking detection unit (e.g., a gyro sensor).

The optical imaging system in the fifth example may satisfy the conditional expression as below:

Conditional Expression 19: 0.3 mm<OISC_1.0<0.4 mm

In the conditional expression, OISC_1.0 is a moving distance of the image sensor IS in the direction perpendicular to the optical axis with respect to the amount of shaking of 1.0°.

Since the optical imaging system in the fifth example may perform focus adjustment and optical image stabilization by moving the image sensor IS, power consumption may be reduced.

Each surface of the first lens 510 to the fifth lens 550 may have an aspherical coefficient as provided in Table 20. For example, the object-side surfaces and the image-side surfaces of the first lens 510 to the fifth lens 550 may be aspherical.
