Abstract

An imaging lens includes first to sixth lens elements arranged from an object side to an image side in the given order. Through designs of surfaces of the lens elements and relevant optical parameters, a short system length of the imaging lens may be achieved while maintaining good optical performance.

Claims (25)

1. An imaging lens comprising a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element, a fifth lens element, and a sixth lens element arranged in order from an object side to an image side along an optical axis of said imaging lens, each of said first lens element, said second lens element, said third lens element, said fourth lens element, said fifth lens element and said sixth lens element having a refractive power, an object-side surface facing toward the object side, and an image-side surface facing toward the image side, wherein:

said object-side surface of said first lens element has a convex portion in a vicinity of the optical axis, and said image-side surface of said first lens element has a concave portion in a vicinity of the optical axis;

said object-side surface of said second lens element has a convex portion in a vicinity of the optical axis;

said object-side surface of said third lens element has a convex portion in a vicinity of the optical axis;

said object-side surface of said fifth lens element has a convex portion in a vicinity of a periphery of said fifth lens element, and said image-side surface of said fifth lens element has a convex portion in a vicinity of the optical axis;

said image-side surface of said sixth lens element has a concave portion in a vicinity of the optical axis, and said sixth lens element is made of a plastic material;

said imaging lens does not include any lens element with refractive power other than said first lens element, said second lens element, said third lens element, said fourth lens element, said fifth lens element and said sixth lens element; and

said imaging lens satisfying 1.0≦ALT/G23≦11.5, where ALT represents a sum of thicknesses of said first lens element, said second lens element, said third lens element, said fourth lens element, said fifth lens element and said sixth lens element at the optical axis; and G23 represents an air gap length between said second lens element and said third lens element at the optical axis.

2. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 1 , satisfying ALT/T2≦10.5, where T2 represents the thickness of said second lens element at the optical axis.

3. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 2 , further satisfying Gaa/T6≧3.5, where Gaa represents a sum of air gap lengths between said first lens element and said sixth lens element at the optical axis; and T6 represents the thickness of said sixth lens element at the optical axis.

4. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 3 , further satisfying 0.9≦G23/T3≦6.5, where T3 represents the thickness of said third lens element at the optical axis.

5. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 2 , further satisfying Gaa/T4≧3.0, where Gaa represents a sum of air gap lengths between said first lens element and said sixth lens element at the optical axis; and T4 represents the thickness of said fourth lens element at the optical axis.

6. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 2 , further satisfying 0.9≦G23/T45≦30.0, where T4 represents the thickness of said fourth lens element at the optical axis.

7. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 6 , further satisfying Gaa/T3≧2.6, where Gaa represents a sum of air gap lengths between said first lens element and said sixth lens element at the optical axis; and T3 represents the thickness of said third lens element at the optical axis.

8. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 1 , satisfying EFL/G34≧1.6, where EFL represents an effective focal length of said imaging lens; and G34 represents an air gap length between said third lens element and said fourth lens element at the optical axis.

9. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 8 , further satisfying G23/G34≧1.0.

10. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 9 , further satisfying 1.3≦ALT/G12≦4.2, where G12 represents an air gap length between said first lens element and said second lens element at the optical axis.

11. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 8 , further satisfying T6/T2≦1.2, where T2 represents the thickness of said second lens element at the optical axis; and T6 represents the thickness of said sixth lens element at the optical axis.

12. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 8 , further satisfying 2.0≦EFL/T4≦15.0, where T4 represents the thickness of said fourth lens element at the optical axis.

13. The imaging lens as claimed in claim 12 , further satisfying G23/T6≦2.15, where T6 represents the thickness of said sixth lens element at the optical axis.
