DETAILED DESCRIPTION

An optical photographing lens assembly includes five lens elements. The five lens elements are, in order from an object side to an image side along an optical path, a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element and a fifth lens element. Each of the five lens elements has an object-side surface facing toward the object side and an image-side surface facing toward the image side.

According to the present disclosure, the five lens elements of the optical photographing lens assembly include at least one freeform lens element, and at least one of the object-side surface and the image-side surface of the at least one freeform lens element is a freeform surface. Therefore, the freeform lens element is favorable for correcting aberrations such as distortion; furthermore, capturing low-distortion images is favorable for the optical photographing lens assembly to be applicable to various applications, especially for wide field-of-view designs. In the present disclosure, a freeform surface (FFS) is a non-axisymmetric aspheric surface. Moreover, at least one of the first lens element and the fifth lens element can be a freeform lens element. Therefore, it is favorable for reducing the influence of non-axisymmetric lens elements on the assembling process, thereby increasing assembling yield rate. Please refer to FIG. 23 and FIG. 24. FIG. 23 shows a superposition of ImgHX, ImgHY, ImgHD and surface shapes of the image-side surface of the fifth lens element corresponding to a diagonal direction, a lengthwise direction and a widthwise direction of the photosensitive area of the image sensor according to the 1st embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 24 shows an enlarged view of the region AA in FIG. 23. FIG. 24 shows the difference of the surface shapes DS, XS, YS of the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150 corresponding to the diagonal direction, the lengthwise direction and the widthwise direction of the photosensitive area of the image sensor 180 at the same distance from an optical axis, which can be exemplary of the non-axisymmetric aspheric surface.

According to the present disclosure, a minimum value among distances between the optical axis and a boundary of an optically effective area of one lens surface is Ymin, a displacement in parallel with the optical axis from an intersection point between the lens surface and the optical axis to a position at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the lens surface is SAG, a maximum value among all the displacements SAG is SAG_MAX, and a minimum value among all the displacements SAG is SAG_MIN. When an absolute difference between SAG_MAX and SAG_MIN is |dSAG|max, at least one freeform surface of at least one freeform lens element of the optical photographing lens assembly can satisfy the following condition: 0.45 um<|dSAG|max. Therefore, it is favorable for increasing the shape variation of the freeform surface so as to further correct aberrations. Moreover, the following condition can also be satisfied: 0.60 um<|dSAG|max. Moreover, the following condition can also be satisfied: 0.75 um<|dSAG|max. Please refer to FIG. 25 and FIG. 26. FIG. 25 shows a schematic view of Ymin, SAG, a cross-sectional view of the fifth lens element corresponding to the widthwise direction of the photosensitive area of the image sensor and a front view of the image-side surface of the fifth lens element according to the 1st embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 26 is a data graph of SAG of all positions at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the image-side surface of the fifth lens element according to the 1st embodiment of the present disclosure. When the displacement from the intersection point between one freeform surface and the optical axis to a point at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the same surface is facing towards the image side of the optical photographing lens assembly, the value of displacement is positive; when the displacement from the intersection point between the freeform surface and the optical axis to a point at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the same surface is facing towards the object side of the optical photographing lens assembly, the value of displacement is negative. In FIG. 25, there is a minimum distance Ymin between the optical axis and the boundary of the optically effective area of the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150 in the direction corresponding to the widthwise direction Y of the photosensitive area of the image sensor. FIG. 26 shows the values of displacements SAG of all positions at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150, where the horizontal axis represents the angle θ between the positive X-axis and a dotted line as shown in FIG. 26, the angle θ is 0 degree as the dotted line is at the positive X-axis, and the angle θ increases as the dotted line rotates counterclockwise about the Z-axis; the vertical axis represents the displacements SAG corresponding to various angles 6. As seen in FIG. 25 from the front view of the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150, there can be one SAG value at any position in a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150. For example, when the angle θ is 0 degree, there is a corresponding SAG value equal to 0.367 mm at the position P1 at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150; when the angle θ is 90 degrees, there is a corresponding SAG value equal to 0.382 mm at the position P2 at a distance of Ymin from the optical axis on the image-side surface 152 of the fifth lens element 150. As seen in FIG. 26, there can be a maximum value SAG_MAX and a minimum value SAG_MIN among all displacements SAG, and the absolute difference between SAG_MAX and SAG_MIN is |dSAG|max.

Therefore, it is favorable for adjusting the travelling direction of light so as to balance the size distribution between the object side and the image side of the optical photographing lens assembly.

The image-side surface of the third lens element can be concave in a paraxial region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for correcting aberrations such as astigmatism.

The fourth lens element can have positive refractive power. Therefore, it is favorable for balancing the refractive power distribution of the optical photographing lens assembly so as to reduce sensitivity of the optical photographing lens assembly. The image-side surface of the fourth lens element can be convex in a paraxial region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for collaborating with the fifth lens element so as to correct off-axis aberrations.

Therefore, it is favorable for balancing the refractive power at the image side of the optical photographing lens assembly so as to correct aberrations such as spherical aberration.

The object-side surface of the fifth lens element can have at least one critical point in an off-axis region thereof and in the maximum image height direction. Therefore, it is favorable for adjusting the angle of incident light rays on the fifth lens element so as to reduce stray light.

Therefore, it is favorable for adjusting the back focal length of the optical photographing lens assembly.

Therefore, it is favorable for adjusting the angle of incident light rays on the image surface so as to improve the response efficiency of the image sensor.

When a paraxial curvature radius of the object-side surface of the fifth lens element in the maximum image height direction is R9, and a paraxial curvature radius of the image-side surface of the fifth lens element in the maximum image height direction is R10, the following condition can be satisfied: 1.6<(R9+R10)/(R9−R10)<5.0.

Moreover, the following condition can also be satisfied: 2.2<(R9+R10)/(R9−R10)<4.5.

When the focal length of the optical photographing lens assembly in the maximum image height direction is f, and a focal length of the fifth lens element in the maximum image height direction is f5, the following condition can be satisfied: −1.0<f/f5<−0.20. Therefore, it is favorable for adjusting the refractive power of the fifth lens element so as to correct aberrations.

According to the present disclosure, the aforementioned features and conditions can be utilized in numerous combinations so as to achieve corresponding effects.

According to the present disclosure, the lens elements of the optical photographing lens assembly can be made of either glass or plastic material. When the lens elements are made of glass material, the refractive power distribution of the optical photographing lens assembly may be more flexible, and the influence on imaging caused by external environment temperature change may be reduced. The glass lens element can either be made by grinding or molding. When the lens elements are made of plastic material, the manufacturing costs can be effectively reduced. Furthermore, surfaces of each lens element can be arranged to be spherical or aspheric. Spherical lens elements are simple in manufacture. Aspheric lens element design allows more control variables for eliminating aberrations thereof and reducing the required number of lens elements, and the total track length of the optical photographing lens assembly can therefore be effectively shortened. Additionally, the aspheric surfaces may be formed by plastic injection molding or glass molding.

According to the present disclosure, when a lens surface is aspheric, it means that the lens surface has an aspheric shape throughout its optically effective area, or a portion(s) thereof. In addition, unless otherwise stated, the aspheric surface in the embodiments refers to an axisymmetric aspheric surface, and the freeform surface in the embodiments refers to a non-axisymmetric aspheric surface.

According to the present disclosure, when the features and parameters, such as the field of view, focal length and curvature radius, with axisymmetric properties or non-axisymmetric properties of the optical photographing lens assembly are not specifically defined, these features and parameters can be determined in the maximum image height direction (which can be the diagonal direction of the effective photosensitive area of the image sensor).

According to the present disclosure, one or more of the lens elements' material may optionally include an additive which alters the lens elements' transmittance in a specific range of wavelength for a reduction in unwanted stray light or color deviation. For example, the additive may optionally filter out light in the wavelength range of 600 nm to 800 nm to reduce excessive red light and/or near infrared light; or may optionally filter out light in the wavelength range of 350 nm to 450 nm to reduce excessive blue light and/or near ultraviolet light from interfering the final image. The additive may be homogeneously mixed with a plastic material to be used in manufacturing a mixed-material lens element by injection molding. Moreover, the additive may be coated on the lens surfaces to provide the abovementioned effects.

According to the present disclosure, each of an object-side surface and an image-side surface has a paraxial region and an off-axis region. The paraxial region refers to the region of the surface where light rays travel close to the optical axis, and the off-axis region refers to the region of the surface away from the paraxial region. Particularly, unless otherwise stated, when the lens element has a convex surface, it indicates that the surface is convex in the paraxial region thereof; when the lens element has a concave surface, it indicates that the surface is concave in the paraxial region thereof. Moreover, when a region of refractive power or focus of a lens element is not defined, it indicates that the region of refractive power or focus of the lens element is in the paraxial region thereof.

According to the present disclosure, a critical point is a non-axial point of the lens surface where its tangent is perpendicular to the optical axis.

According to the present disclosure, the image surface of the optical photographing lens assembly, based on the corresponding image sensor, can be flat or curved, especially a curved surface being concave facing towards the object side of the optical photographing lens assembly.

According to the present disclosure, an image correction unit, such as a field flattener, can be optionally disposed between the lens element closest to the image side of the optical photographing lens assembly along the optical path and the image surface for correction of aberrations such as field curvature. The optical properties of the image correction unit, such as curvature, thickness, index of refraction, position and surface shape (convex or concave surface with spherical, aspheric, diffractive or Fresnel types), can be adjusted according to the design of the image capturing unit. In general, a preferable image correction unit is, for example, a thin transparent element having a concave object-side surface and a planar image-side surface, and the thin transparent element is disposed near the image surface.

According to the present disclosure, at least one light-folding element, such as a prism or a mirror, can be optionally disposed between an imaged object and the image surface on the imaging optical path, such that the optical photographing lens assembly can be more flexible in space arrangement, and therefore the dimensions of an electronic device is not restricted by the total track length of the optical photographing lens assembly. Specifically, please refer to FIG. 30 and FIG. 31. FIG. 30 shows a schematic view of a configuration of a light-folding element in an optical photographing lens assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 31 shows a schematic view of another configuration of a light-folding element in an optical photographing lens assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. In FIG. 30 and FIG. 31, the optical photographing lens assembly can have, in order from an imaged object (not shown in the figures) to an image surface IM along an optical path, a first optical axis OA1, a light-folding element LF and a second optical axis OA2. The light-folding element LF can be disposed between the imaged object and a lens group LG of the optical photographing lens assembly as shown in FIG. 30 or disposed between a lens group LG of the optical photographing lens assembly and the image surface IM as shown in FIG. 31. Furthermore, please refer to FIG. 32, which shows a schematic view of a configuration of two light-folding elements in an optical photographing lens assembly according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. In FIG. 32, the optical photographing lens assembly can have, in order from an imaged object (not shown in the figure) to an image surface IM along an optical path, a first optical axis OA1, a first light-folding element LF1, a second optical axis OA2, a second light-folding element LF2 and a third optical axis OA3. The first light-folding element LF1 is disposed between the imaged object and a lens group LG of the optical photographing lens assembly, the second light-folding element LF2 is disposed between the lens group LG of the optical photographing lens assembly and the image surface IM. The optical photographing lens assembly can be optionally provided with three or more light-folding elements, and the present disclosure is not limited to the type, amount and position of the light-folding elements of the embodiments disclosed in the aforementioned figures.

According to the present disclosure, the optical photographing lens assembly can include at least one stop, such as an aperture stop, a glare stop or a field stop. Said glare stop or said field stop is set for eliminating the stray light and thereby improving image quality thereof.

According to the present disclosure, an aperture stop can be configured as a front stop or a middle stop. A front stop disposed between an imaged object and the first lens element can provide a longer distance between an exit pupil of the optical photographing lens assembly and the image surface to produce a telecentric effect, and thereby improves the image-sensing efficiency of an image sensor (for example, CCD or CMOS). A middle stop disposed between the first lens element and the image surface is favorable for enlarging the viewing angle of the optical photographing lens assembly and thereby provides a wider field of view for the same.

According to the present disclosure, the optical photographing lens assembly can include an aperture control unit. The aperture control unit may be a mechanical component or a light modulator, which can control the size and shape of the aperture through electricity or electrical signals. The mechanical component can include a movable member, such as a blade assembly or a light shielding sheet. The light modulator can include a shielding element, such as a filter, an electrochromic material or a liquid-crystal layer. The aperture control unit controls the amount of incident light or exposure time to enhance the capability of image quality adjustment. In addition, the aperture control unit can be the aperture stop of the present disclosure, which changes the f-number to obtain different image effects, such as the depth of field or lens speed.

According to the above description of the present disclosure, the following specific embodiments are provided for further explanation.

9th Embodiment

FIG. 17 is a perspective view of an image capturing unit according to the 9th embodiment of the present disclosure. In this embodiment, an image capturing unit is a camera module including a lens unit 11, a driving device 12, an image sensor 13 and an image stabilizer 14. The lens unit 11 includes the optical photographing lens assembly disclosed in the 1st embodiment, a barrel and a holder member (their reference numerals are omitted) for holding the optical photographing lens assembly. However, the lens unit 11 may alternatively be provided with the optical photographing lens assembly disclosed in other embodiments of the present disclosure, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The imaging light converges in the lens unit 11 of the image capturing unit to generate an image with the driving device 12 utilized for image focusing on the image sensor 13, and the generated image is then digitally transmitted to other electronic component for further processing.

The driving device 12 can have auto focusing functionality, and different driving configurations can be obtained through the usages of voice coil motors (VCM), micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS), piezoelectric systems, or shape memory alloy materials. The driving device 12 is favorable for obtaining a better imaging position of the lens unit 11, so that a clear image of the imaged object can be captured by the lens unit 11 with different object distances. The image sensor 13 (for example, CCD or CMOS), which can feature high photosensitivity and low noise, is disposed on the image surface of the optical photographing lens assembly to provide higher image quality.
