DETAILED DESCRIPTION
An imaging optical lens assembly includes, in order from an object side to an image side, a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element and a fifth lens element. The imaging optical lens assembly has a total of five lens elements.
There is an air gap in a paraxial region between every two lens elements of the imaging optical lens assembly that are adjacent to each other; that is, each of the first through fifth lens elements can be a single and non-cemented lens element. Moreover, the manufacturing process of the cemented lenses is more complex than the non-cemented lenses. In particular, an image-side surface of one lens element and an object-side surface of the following lens element need to have accurate curvature to ensure these two lens elements will be highly cemented. However, during the cementing process, those two lens elements might not be highly cemented due to displacement and it is thereby not favorable for the image quality. Therefore, there is an air gap in a paraxial region between every two lens elements of the photographing optical lens assembly that are adjacent to each other in the present disclosure for solving the problem generated by the cemented lens elements.
The first lens element with positive refractive power has an object-side surface being convex in a paraxial region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for providing the positive refractive power needed for the imaging optical lens assembly and reducing a total track length.
The second lens element with negative refractive power has an object-side surface being concave in a paraxial region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for correcting aberrations generated by the first lens element.
The third lens element has an object-side surface and an image-side surface, wherein each of the object-side surface and the image-side surface of the third lens element can have at least one concave shape in an off-axis region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for reducing the incident angle of the light projecting onto an image sensor so as to improve the image-sensing efficiency of the image sensor, thereby correcting the aberration of the off-axis field.
The fourth lens element with negative refractive power has an object-side surface being concave in a paraxial region thereof and an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for reducing a back focal length. Furthermore, the image-side surface of the fourth lens element has at least one convex shape in an off-axis region thereof so that it is favorable for reducing a chief ray angle at the peripheral region of the image, and thereby the image sensor is capable of capturing images at high resolution.
The fifth lens element with positive refractive power can have an object-side surface and an image-side surface both being convex in a paraxial region thereof. Therefore, it is favorable for correcting aberrations generated from overly strong refractive power of the first through the fourth lens elements.
When a curvature radius of the object-side surface of the second lens element is R3, a curvature radius of an image-side surface of the second lens element is R4, the following condition is satisfied: (R3+R4)/(R3−R4)<0.50. Therefore, it is favorable for preventing the surfaces of the second lens element from overly curved at the off-axis region for eliminating the stray light. Preferably, the following condition can also be satisfied: (R3+R4)/(R3−R4)<0. Furthermore, the following condition can also be satisfied: −2.5<(R3+R4)/(R3−R4)<0.
When a focal length of the imaging optical lens assembly is f, a curvature radius of the image-side surface of the fifth lens element is R10, the following condition can be satisfied: f/|R10|<1.20. Therefore, it is favorable for obtaining a desirable back focal length by preventing the shape of the fifth lens element being overly curved. In detail, when the image-side surface of the fifth lens element is convex in the paraxial region thereof, it is favorable for preventing the back focal length from too long; when the image-side surface of the fifth lens element is concave in the paraxial region thereof, it is favorable for preventing the back focal length from too short. By satisfying the condition, it is favorable for keeping the imaging optical lens assembly compact with a proper back focal length. Preferably, the following condition can also be satisfied: f/|R10|<0.75.
When the focal length of the imaging optical lens assembly is f, a maximum image height of the imaging optical lens assembly (half of a diagonal length of an effective photosensitive area of the image sensor) is ImgH, the following condition can be satisfied: 0.25<ImgH/f<0.55. Therefore, it is favorable for enhancing the telephoto characteristic of the imaging optical lens assembly.
When an axial distance between the first lens element and the second lens element is T12, an axial distance between the second lens element and the third lens element is T23, an axial distance between the third lens element and the fourth lens element is T34, an axial distance between the fourth lens element and the fifth lens element is T45, the following condition can be satisfied: 1.0<T34/(T12+T23+T45)<4.0. Therefore, it is favorable for properly arranging the axial distance between every two adjacent lens elements so as to reduce the sensitivity of the imaging optical lens assembly while obtaining the telephoto characteristic simultaneously.
When a focal length of the second lens element is f2, a focal length of the fourth lens element is f4, and the following condition can be satisfied: f4/f2<1.0. Therefore, it is favorable for balancing the refractive power of the second lens element and the fourth lens element so as to prevent the surfaces of the second lens element from overly curved.
When an Abbe number of the first lens element is V1, an Abbe number of the second lens element is V2, an Abbe number of the third lens element is V3, an Abbe number of the fourth lens element is V4, an Abbe number of the fifth lens element is V5, the following condition can be satisfied: 0.45<(V2+V3+V5)/(V1+V4)<0.75. Therefore, it is favorable for balancing between corrections of chromatic aberration and astigmatism.
When the axial distance between the third lens element and the fourth lens element is T34, an axial distance between the image-side surface of the fifth lens element and an image surface is BL, the following condition can be satisfied: 1.20<T34/BL<2.5. Therefore, it is favorable for obtaining a proper chief ray angle so as to further improve the image-sensing efficiency of the image sensor.
When a curvature radius of the object-side surface of the fourth lens element is R7, a curvature radius of the image-side surface of the fourth lens element is R8, the following condition can be satisfied: −1.0<R7/R8<0. Therefore, it is favorable for further reducing the back focal length.
When an axial distance between the object-side surface of the first lens element and the image surface is TL, the focal length of the imaging optical lens assembly is f, the following condition can be satisfied: 0.75<TL/f<1.10. Therefore, it is favorable for reducing the total track length while obtaining the telephoto characteristic.
When the focal length of the imaging optical lens assembly is f, the focal length of the second lens element is f2, a focal length of the third lens element is f3, the focal length of the fourth lens element is f4, the following condition can be satisfied: −4.0<(f/f2)+(f/f3)+(f/f4)<−2.0. Therefore, it is favorable for correcting the field curvature generated by the first lens element.
When the axial distance between the first lens element and the second lens element is T12, the axial distance between the second lens element and the third lens element is T23, the following condition can be satisfied: 0<T23/T12<1.75. Therefore, it is favorable for preventing the axial distance between the first lens element and the second lens element from overly short so as to provide an easier lens assembling process, thereby increasing the assembling yield rate.
When the Abbe number of the fourth lens element is V4, the Abbe number of the fifth lens element is V5, the following condition can be satisfied: 1.8<V4/V5<3.5. Therefore, it is favorable for correcting chromatic aberration.
When the focal length of the imaging optical lens assembly is f, the focal length of the third lens element is f3, the following condition can be satisfied: −1.2<f/f3≦0. Therefore, it is favorable for enhancing the aberration correction capability so as to improve the image quality.
According to the present disclosure, an aperture stop can be disposed as a front stop or a middle stop. A front stop disposed between the imaged object and the first lens element can produce a telecentric effect by providing a longer distance between an exit pupil and the image surface, thereby improving 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 view angle and thereby provides a wider field of view.
According to the present disclosure, the lens elements of the imaging optical lens assembly can be made of glass or plastic material. When the lens elements are made of glass material, the refractive power distribution of the imaging optical lens assembly may be more flexible to design. When the lens elements are made of plastic material, manufacturing costs can be effectively reduced. Furthermore, surfaces of each lens element can be arranged to be aspheric, since the aspheric surface of the lens element is easy to form a shape other than a spherical surface so as to have more controllable variables for eliminating aberrations thereof and to further decrease the required number of the lens elements. Therefore, the total track length of the imaging optical lens assembly can also be reduced.
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 can be convex in the paraxial region thereof; when the lens element has a concave surface, it indicates that the surface can be 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 can be in the paraxial region thereof.
According to the present disclosure, an image surface of the imaging optical lens assembly on the corresponding image sensor can be flat or curved, particularly a concave curved surface facing towards the object side of the imaging optical lens assembly.
According to the present disclosure, the imaging optical 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 allocated for eliminating the stray light and thereby improving the image quality thereof.
According to the present disclosure, an image capturing unit includes the aforementioned imaging optical lens assembly and an image sensor, wherein the image sensor is disposed on the image side and can be located on or near an image surface of the aforementioned imaging optical lens assembly. In some embodiments, the image capturing unit can further include a barrel member, a holding member or a combination thereof.
In FIG. 17, FIG. 18, and FIG. 19, an image capturing unit 10 may be installed in, but not limited to, an electronic device, including a smart phone (FIG. 17), a tablet personal computer (FIG. 18) or a wearable device (FIG. 19).

In some embodiments, the electronic device can further include, but not limited to, a display unit, a control unit, a storage unit, a random access memory unit (RAM), a read only memory unit (ROM) or a combination thereof.
According to the present disclosure, the imaging optical lens assembly can be optionally applied to optical systems with a movable focus. Furthermore, the imaging optical lens assembly is featured with good capability in aberration corrections and high image quality, and can be applied to 3D (three-dimensional) image capturing applications, in products such as such as digital cameras, mobile devices, digital tablets, wearable devices, smart televisions, network surveillance devices, motion sensing input devices, dashboard cameras, vehicle backup cameras and other electronic imaging devices.
