Abstract

A micro-lens is provided. The micro-lens includes a first lens, a second lens and a third lens. The first lens is a convexo-convex lens with positive focal power; the second lens is a lens having a concave image-side surface with negative focal power; and the third lens is a lens with negative focal power. At least one surface of the first, second and third lenses is aspheric. The micro-optical lens provided herein employs three pieces of aspheric lens, and breaks through the current patent blockage through distribution of different focal power, and set forth a new solution for the specification and performance as required currently. Meanwhile, the optical lens disclosed in this invention has small size and high optical quality, and thus could be easily installed in various digital products requiring portable imaging.

Claims (15)

1. A micro-lens, comprising a first lens, a second lens and a third lens, wherein the first lens is a convexo-convex lens with positive focal power; the second lens is a lens having a concave image-side surface with negative focal power; and the third lens is a lens with negative focal power, and wherein at least one surface of the surfaces of the first lens, the second lens and the third lens is aspheric, and

wherein for the first lens, |R 1 |<|R 2 |, wherein R 1 is a radius of curvature of an object-side surface of the first lens, and R 2 is a radius of curvature of an image-side surface of the first lens, and

an object-side surface of the second lens is convex.

2. A micro-lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

0<f 2 /f 3 <1.5

where f 2 is the focal length of the second lens, and f 3 is the focal length of the third lens.

3. A micro-lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

|f 3 |/f>2.0

where |f 3 | is the absolute value of the focal length of the third lens, and f is the focal length of whole system.

4. A micro-lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

0.8<TTL/f<2.5

where TTL is the distance between the central point of object side of the first lens and imaging surface; and f is the focal length of whole system.

5. A micro-lens as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a diaphragm, and the diaphragm is between the first lens and an object.

6. A micro-lens as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a diaphragm, and the diaphragm is between the first lens and the second lens.

7. A micro-lens as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the positions of each of the first lens, the second lens and the third lens are fixed.
