Abstract

An optical lens includes a first lens group having negative refractive power, a second lens group having positive refractive power, and an aperture stop disposed between the first lens group and the second lens group. A total number of lenses of the two lens groups is less than 9. The first lens group has at least three lenses with refractive power and at least one aspheric lens. The second lens group has at least three lenses with refractive power and at least one aspheric lens. The first lens group includes a lens having positive refractive power and an Abbe number of smaller than 20.

Claims (24)

1. An optical lens, comprising:

a first lens group with negative refractive power comprising at least three lenses with refractive powers, the at least three lenses with refractive powers including at least one aspheric lens, and the first lens group having a lens with positive refractive power and an Abbe number of smaller than 20;

a second lens group with positive refractive power comprising at least three lenses with refractive powers, the at least three lenses with refractive powers including at least one aspheric lens, and a total number of lenses in the first lens group and the second lens group being less than 9, wherein each of the first lens group and the second lens group comprises a lens having a refractive index variation as a function of temperature (dn/dt) of smaller than −80 ×10 −6 K −1 ; and

an aperture stop disposed between the two lens groups.

2. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the optical lens satisfies the condition of nd> 1.66, where nd denotes a refractive index of the lens with positive refractive power in the first lens group.

3. The optical lens as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a distance between any two lenses in the optical lens remains fixed on picking-up images at various object distances.

4. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second lens group comprises a cemented lens.

5. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the lens having positive refractive power is nearest the aperture stop than any other lens in the first lens group.

6. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one aspheric lens in the first lens group is located further away from the aperture stop than the lens having positive refractive power in the first lens group.

7. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one aspheric lens in the second lens group is located further away from the aperture stop than any other singlet lens in the second lens group.

8. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second lens group comprises two aspheric lenses.

9. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a maximum image circle diameter at a visible light image plane of the optical lens is 4-6 mm.

10. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a distance between any two lenses in the optical lens remains fixed on picking-up images at various object distances.

11. The optical lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the optical lens satisfies the condition:

R<5.7; and

R *TTL<140

where R denotes a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of a lens in the first lens group nearest the object side, and TTL denotes a total track length.

12. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the second lens group comprises a cemented lens.

13. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the lens having positive refractive power is nearest the aperture stop than any other lens in the first lens group.

14. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the at least one aspheric lens in the first lens group is located further away from the aperture stop than the lens having positive refractive power in the first lens group.

15. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the at least one aspheric lens in the second lens group is located further away from the aperture stop than any other singlet lens in the second lens group.

16. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the second lens group comprises two aspheric lenses.

17. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein a maximum image circle diameter at a visible light image plane of the optical lens is 4-6 mm.

18. The optical lens as claimed in claim 11 , wherein a distance between any two lenses in the optical lens remains fixed on picking-up images at various object distances.
