The following is a brief description of the concepts involved in the present application:
field of View (FOV);
f-number (Fno);
total Track Length (TTL);
modulation Transfer Function (MTF);
principal light Angle (CRA).
The embodiment of the application provides a mobile terminal with function of making a video recording, this mobile terminal includes the casing, makes a video recording module and display screen, and the casing is formed with visual window, and the module setting of making a video recording is in the casing, and the display screen setting is in visual window department, and the module of making a video recording is used for forming the image by the scene of will making a video recording, and the display screen is used for the image display who will form above that. By way of example, the mobile terminal may be a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or other electronic device.
In order to improve the imaging quality of the camera module in the mobile terminal, the embodiment of the application further provides a camera module, wherein the camera module comprises an imaging system and a digital image processor, the imaging system is used for imaging, and the digital image processor is used for processing the electric signal transmitted by the imaging system to form an image.
To reduce CRA, referring to fig. 4 and 5, the imaging system includes: an optical lens group 1, a main light angle adjusting lens2 and an image sensor 3, wherein the optical lens group 1 includes a plurality of lenses 101 sequentially arranged along a light incidence direction, an image sensor 3 is disposed on an imaging side of the optical lens group 1, the image sensor 3 is used for converting an optical image transmitted thereto into an electrical signal, a main light angle adjusting lens2 is disposed on an optical path between the optical lens group 1 and the image sensor 3, and in conjunction with fig. 4 and 5 and fig. 7, the main light angle adjusting lens2 is formed with a first transmission surface and a second transmission surface, the first transmission surface is an aspheric surface 201, a microlens array 202 is integrated on the second transmission surface, the microlens array 202 is disposed opposite to a pixel cell array 301 of the image sensor 3, the aspheric surface 201 is used for converging the chief ray transmitted by the optical lens group 1 towards the direction close to the optical axis of the imaging system, and the micro lens array 202 is used for converging the chief ray transmitted by the aspheric surface 201 towards the direction close to the optical axis.
By arranging the chief ray angle adjusting lens2 on the light path between the optical lens group 1 and the image sensor 3, the aspheric surface 201 and the micro lens array 202 can enable chief rays to converge towards the optical axis direction, namely, when the light rays transmitted from the optical lens group 1 pass through the aspheric surface 201, the aspheric surface 201 can enable the chief rays to converge towards the optical axis direction so as to reduce the CRA, when the light rays transmitted from the aspheric surface 201 pass through the micro lens array 202 again, the micro lens array 202 converges towards the optical axis direction again for the chief rays, the CRA is further reduced, and finally the size of the CRA is reduced, so that the imaging system can adapt to the imaging requirements of multispectral or hyperspectral.
In the specific implementation, if the image sensor 3 with higher wavelength resolution is selected, and the receiving angle of the image sensor 3 is
Figure BDA0002296835350000041
In order to match the image sensor 3 and ensure imaging quality, the absolute value of the difference between the CRA transmitted to the pixel cell of the pixel cell array 301 of the image sensor 3 and the reception angle of the pixel cell is less than or equal to 3 °. For example, if the receiving angle of a certain pixel unit is 12 °, the CRA transmitted to the pixel unit has a value range of: CRA is more than or equal to 9 degrees and less than or equal to 15 degrees. The embodiment of the application reduces the main light angle by arranging the main light angle adjusting lens2 on the light path between the optical lens group 1 and the image sensor 3, so that the CRA transmitted to the pixel unit of the image sensor 3 is matched with the receiving angle of the image sensor 3. In order to improve the effect of the optical image transmitted to the image sensor, the CRA transmitted to the pixel cell of the image sensor 3 is smaller than the acceptance angle of the pixel cell.
In some embodiments, the aspheric surface 201 is a convex surface, and the image-side surface of the microlenses of the microlens array 202 is also a convex surface. In particular implementations, the radius of curvature of the aspheric surface and/or the radius of curvature of the microlenses may be adjusted to change the profile of the aspheric surface and/or the profile of the microlenses, ultimately adjusting the size of the CRA transmitted to the image sensor 3.
It should be noted that: adjusting the radius of curvature of the aspheric surface and/or the radius of curvature of the microlens means: only the radius of curvature of the aspheric surface may be adjusted to adjust the magnitude of the principal light angle transmitted to the image sensor 3; it is also possible to adjust only the radius of curvature of the microlens to adjust the magnitude of the chief ray angle transmitted to the image sensor 3; it is also possible to adjust the radius of curvature of the aspherical surface and the radius of curvature of the microlens at the same time to adjust the magnitude of the chief ray angle transmitted to the image sensor 3.
The size of the CRA transmitted to the image sensor 3 can be adjusted in various ways, one is by increasing the number of lenses, and another is by using the main light angle adjusting lens provided in the embodiment of the present application, for example, referring to fig. 2A, the optical lens group of the imaging system is composed of four lenses, and the optical performance parameters of the imaging system are as follows: the FOV is 84 °, Fno is 2.4, TTL is 3.995mm (H1 in fig. 2A), the MTF curve of the imaging system is shown in fig. 2B, the CRA curve is shown in fig. 2C, and as shown in fig. 2C, the maximum value of the CRA of the imaging system is 35 °, that is, the angle satisfies the receiving angle of the conventional RGB image sensor, but for some application scenarios requiring high wavelength resolution, such as multispectral or hyperspectral imaging applications, since the receiving angle of the multispectral or hyperspectral image sensor requires less than 15 °, if the imaging system is applied in the multispectral or hyperspectral imaging application scenarios, severe wavelength crosstalk is caused, so that the application fails. In order to reduce the main light angle and meet the requirement of the receiving angle of the multispectral or hyperspectral detector, the imaging system is designed as the structure shown in fig. 3A, the imaging lens group 001 of the imaging system comprises six lenses, and the optical performance parameters of the imaging system are as follows: the FOV is 82 °, the Fno is 2.4, and the TTL is 5.50mm (H2 in fig. 3A), the MTF curve of the imaging system is shown in fig. 3B, the CRA curve is shown in fig. 3C, and as can be seen from fig. 3C, the maximum CRA value of the imaging system is 13 °, which satisfies the requirement of the acceptance angle of the multispectral or hyperspectral image sensor. But since the number of optical lenses of the imaging system is increased to six compared to four lenses, the total lens height TTL (H2 in fig. 3A) is increased to 5.50mm compared to H1 in fig. 2A.
When the imaging system provided by the embodiment of the present application is adopted, that is, the main light angle adjusting lens2 is added under the condition that the four lenses as shown in fig. 2A are not changed, and finally, the optical performance parameters of the imaging system are as follows: FOV 84 °, Fno 2.4, TTL 4.083mm (H3 in fig. 4), the MTF curve of the imaging system is shown in fig. 6A, the CRA curve is shown in fig. 6B, and the curve distribution of the CRA shown in fig. 6B is compared with the curve distribution of the CRA shown in fig. 3C, the curve distribution of the CRA obtained by the imaging system provided by the embodiment of the present application is consistent with the curve distribution of the CRA shown in fig. 3C, and the MTF profile shown in fig. 6A is compared with the MTF profile shown in fig. 3B, the MTF profile obtained by the imaging system provided by the embodiment of the present application is consistent with the MTF profile shown in fig. 3B, further the imaging quality of the imaging system using the embodiments of the present application remains substantially the same as the imaging quality of the imaging system using figure 3A, however, the total lens height of 4.083mm is significantly reduced compared to the total lens height of 5.50 mm. Therefore, when the main light angle is reduced by using the combined aspheric lens 201 and the microlens array 202 provided by the embodiment of the present application, the TTL value of the whole imaging system can be significantly reduced compared with that by increasing the number of lenses, so that the whole imaging system meets the design requirement of miniaturization. For example, the imaging system shown in fig. 4 can be applied not only to the Back of a mobile phone to form Back Side Illumination (BSI) photography, but also to the front of a mobile phone with a smaller installation space to form Front Side Illumination (FSI) photography, so that there is no need to increase the space for installing the imaging system on the front of the mobile phone, and the photographic effect of the Back Side photography and the front Side photography is equivalent, thereby improving the user experience of the front Side photography.
The realization of different principal light angles by adjusting the surface shape of the aspherical surface and/or adjusting the surface shape of the microlenses is demonstrated below by three examples.

Therefore, it is shown by the three embodiments described above: the size of the chief ray angle transmitted to the image sensor can be changed by changing the curvature radius of the aspheric surface and/or changing the curvature radius of the micro lens under the condition that the TTL is not changed basically. The benefits thus achieved are: compared with the whole lens, the imaging system has the advantages that the main light angle is reduced, the TTL is basically not changed, the application scene of the imaging system is obviously enlarged, the existing electronic equipment is developed towards the direction of miniaturization design, and the imaging system not only effectively improves the imaging quality, but also meets the requirement of miniaturization design.
When the imaging system provided by the embodiment of the application adopts the main light angle adjusting lens2 formed by the aspheric lens and the micro lens array, the smaller the main light angle transmitted to the image sensor is, the smaller the wavelength crosstalk between different pixel units of the image sensor is, and thus the performance requirement of the image sensor can be correspondingly reduced; meanwhile, the smaller the wavelength drift and crosstalk after being transmitted to the filter in the image sensor, the convenience is brought to the subsequent correction of the whole imaging system.
In order to improve the imaging quality, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, one microlens of the microlens array 202 is disposed opposite to one pixel unit of the pixel unit array 301 of the image sensor 3, the microlens is proximate to the corresponding pixel unit, that is, the microlens array 202 and the pixel unit array 301 are both M × N arrays, and the microlens in the microlens array 202 and the pixel unit in the pixel unit array 301 are one-to-one, wherein each microlens is proximate to the corresponding pixel unit, and M and N are integers greater than 1.
It should be noted that: the microlens being close to the pixel unit means that the surface of the microlens is close to the pixel unit, or the surface of the microlens is close to the pixel unit (i.e., the distance between the surface of the microlens and the pixel unit 301 is less than or equal to 20 μm). Through pressing close to rather than the corresponding pixel unit with the microlens, the light that the microlens transmission is on basically all refracting to corresponding pixel unit like this, compare and have great interval between microlens and the pixel unit, avoid the light that the microlens transmission is on transmitting to adjacent pixel unit, so that the phenomenon of wavelength crosstalk appears between the pixel unit, improve the luminous intensity of transmission to image sensor's pixel unit, be favorable to improving the SNR of image sensor received signal, therefore, press close to rather than corresponding pixel unit with the microlens, can effectively ensure imaging performance.
In order to further improve the imaging quality of the imaging system, in other embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the central axis P1 of the microlens is coaxial with the central axis P2 of the pixel cell. Namely, the central axis P1 of the micro lens is in the same line with the central axis P2 of the pixel unit, so the technical effects achieved are as follows: most of the light refracted from the micro lens is close to the center of the pixel unit, so that more light energy refracted from the micro lens is transmitted to the center of the pixel unit, the light energy receiving efficiency of the image sensor 3 is further improved, and finally the imaging quality of the whole imaging system, such as imaging illumination, imaging color and the like, is improved.
The light angle adjusting lens2 has various implementations, and in some implementations, the aspheric surface 201 is formed by nanoimprinting on one side of the transparent substrate 202, and the microlens array 202 is formed by nanoimprinting on the other side opposite to the aspheric surface 201, that is, the transparent substrate 203 is used as a carrier, and the aspheric surface 201 and the microlens array 202 are carried on the transparent substrate 203. By adopting the structure, on the premise of ensuring that the main light angle can be reduced, the structure is simple, the manufacture is convenient, and the TTL of the whole imaging system can not be increased more. In other embodiments, referring to fig. 8, the aspheric surface 201 and the microlens array 202 are integrally formed by injection molding or die pressing, i.e., without a transparent substrate, for example, a photopolymer layer is deposited, a high temperature reflow process is applied to one side of the photopolymer layer to form the microlens array, a high temperature reflow process is also applied to the other side of the photopolymer layer to form the aspheric surface, or a mask exposure may be used to form the microlens array and the aspheric surface. Of course, the aspheric surface 201 and the microlens array 202 may be implemented in other ways, and any structure is within the protection scope of the present application.
The material of the light angle adjusting lens2 can be transparent plastic, transparent glass or other transparent polymer materials.
The microlens array has various realizable structures, and for example, the microlens array can be one of a spherical microlens array, an aspherical microlens array, a cylindrical microlens array or a fresnel microlens array.
The structure of the image sensor 3 has various cases, and the image sensor 3 includes, but is not limited to, a Charge-coupled Device (CCD), a Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS), and so on. In specific implementation, parameters such as pixel resolution, pixel size, quantum efficiency, sensitivity or dynamic range of the image sensor can be selected according to requirements.
In some embodiments, when the light wave of the imaging system does not include the infrared band, as shown in fig. 9, an infrared filter 4 is disposed on the light path between the optical lens group 1 and the main light angle adjusting lens2, that is, the light passes through the infrared filter 4 to transmit the near infrared cut visible light; in other embodiments, when the light wave of the imaging system includes an infrared band but not a visible band, a visible light filter is disposed on the light path between the optical lens group 1 and the main light angle adjusting lens2, that is, the visible light filter is passed through to cut off the near infrared light passing through the visible light. The choice of filter is therefore chosen according to the wavelength band to be transmitted by the imaging system.
The main light angle adjusting lens2 can be packaged with the image sensor 3 to form a module, and the main light angle adjusting lens2 and the image sensor 3 can be two independent modules, if the main light angle adjusting lens2 and the image sensor 3 are packaged together by adopting a packaging structure, the main light angle adjusting lens is convenient to mount and adjust when an imaging system is specifically assembled.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4, the optical lens assembly includes a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element and a fourth lens element sequentially disposed along an incident light beam, wherein an object-side surface of the first lens element is a convex surface, an image-side surface of the first lens element is a concave surface, an object-side surface of the second lens element is a concave surface, an object-side surface of the third lens element is a concave surface, an image-side surface of the third lens element is a convex surface, an object-side surface of the fourth lens element is a concave surface, and an image-side surface of the fourth lens element is a concave surface. Namely, the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens and the main light angle adjusting lens with positive focal power, and the imaging system formed in the way can meet the imaging requirements of the existing mobile phones and tablet computers. Particularly, the imaging system can be arranged on the front side of the mobile phone and combined with the digital image processor to form the front camera module, so that the space on the front side of the mobile phone can be fully utilized, and the imaging performance of the front camera module can be effectively improved.
