This means that the thickness of the luminous flux incident on the first lens L1 is made thicker than the central luminous flux.

From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
- the conditions (vi) keeps it possible to inject a light ray into the lens group G_rear with an appropriate angle of the light ray emitted from the image side surface of the non-planar prism L2. If it deviates from this range, it becomes difficult to maintain an ultra-wide-angle and aberration correction. Further, within this range, the ease of manufacturing the non-planar prism and the ease of assembling the front group and the rear group can be improved. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
- the distortion can be maintained very low (less than 5%) despite the ultra-wide-angle. Further, it also enables the first lens L1 to be arranged close to the non-planar prism L2, in other word, to keep the thickness of the ultra-wide-angle lens module very small.

Description
FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present disclosure relates to an image pickup lens that forms an object image for a solid-state image sensor such as a CCD or CMOS sensor, and more particularly to an ultra-wide-angle lens for a CCD or CMOS sensor used for a portable device such as a smartphone, a game machine, a PC, an IP camera, a home appliance, an automobile, etc. It also relates to an ultra-wide-angle lens and a photographing device mounted on an unmanned aircraft or the like.
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
With the popularization of smartphones in recent years, the needs for imaging lenses have diversified, and it is desired to improve the optical performance such as a wider angle of view-angle, higher telephoto performance, and larger -diameter (higher NA) while maintaining the size of an imaging module that is directly affected by the product size. Nowadays, when multi-camera systems have become mainstream, the role of ultra-wide-angle lenses plays a major role in measuring differentiation in smartphone products since ultra-wide-angle lenses are suitable for shooting landscapes, buildings, self, indoors, macro photography, etc. Here, the ultra-wide angle refers to a half angle of view of approximately 45° or more.
As an example of such an ultra-wide-angle lens module, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2018072716A discloses an optical system composed of six lenses including a negative lens L1 and a positive lens L2. Here, with respect to the terms used in the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the positive/negative of a lens refers to the positive/negative of the focal length of a lens near the optical axis.
However, an imaging lens as described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2018072716A has a large distortion, i.e., -10%to -30%. In ultra-wide-angle imaging optics, distortion is often sacrificed in order to ensure both a sufficiently small total optical length and imaging performance, which is of course not desirable for users who perceive a large distortion as a defect by the camera. In addition, there are many cameras that perform digital processing to correct this distortion problem, but as a result, such digital processing reduces the ultra-wide-angle of view and reduces the image quality to undermine the benefits of the ultra-wide-angle lens resulting in a loss of competitiveness as a camera.
An ultra-wide-angle imaging optical system that satisfactorily corrects this distortion is published in Japanese Patent Publication P2018-25794A. However, the total optical length of the optical system becomes 25 mm or more in order to correct the distortion, which leads to an increase in product size and cannot meet the needs for the recent mobile devices with a very thin thickness.
In order to shorten a total optical length of the optical system, it has been considered to bend the optical path by using a prism. Although the total optical length is shortened by using a prism, there is a problem that the thickness is increased by the amount that the front lens is pushed aside. An ultra-wide-angle lens that can solve the above-mentioned problems is required.
Therefore, there is a need for an ultra-wide-angle lens optical system that can solve the above-mentioned problems for a CCD or CMOS sensor used for a portable device such as a smartphone, a game machine, a PC, an IP camera, a home appliance, an automobile, etc.
SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present invention mitigates and/or obviates the afore-mentioned disadvantages.
The primary objective of the present disclosure is to provide an ultra-wide-angle lens optical system to provide a short TTL, a thinner thickness, and a high quality image with less distortion. By using an ultra-wide-angle lens optical system of this disclosure, it can be installed in thin products while suppressing distortion to the extent that high image quality can be obtained despite the ultra-wide-angle lens.
According to a first aspect, an ultra-wide-angle lens optical system is provided. The ultra-wide-angle lens optical system consists of a front lens, a non-planar prism, and a rear lens group. The non-planar prism has non-planar surfaces on both the object side and the imaging side and configured to bend the optical path by 90°.

As shown in the optical data above, the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system of the present disclosure can achieve both high image quality with substantially little distortion and compactness. The ultra-wide-angle lens in these embodiments obtains a preferable effect by satisfying the following conditions:
(i) 50 ≤ ω ≤ 75
Where ω is half angle of view.
(ii) -3.9 ≤ f1 /f ≤ -0.8
Where f is the focal length of the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system, and f1 is the focal length of the first lens L1.
(iii) 2 ≤ f2 /f ≤ 9.5
Where f is the focal length of the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system, and f2 is the focal length of the non-planar prism L2.
(iv) 1.3 ≤ f (G_rear) /f ≤ 3.3
Where f is the focal length of the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system, and f (G_rear) is the focal length of the rear group G_rear.
(v) 6 ≤ TTL /f ≤ 16
Where f is the focal length of the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system, and TTL is that total length of the optical path from the imaging surface to the surface S1 of the first lens L1.
(vi) -0.15 ≤ sag_L2S2 /rad_L2S2 ≤ 0.1
Where sag_L2S2 is the amount of sag on the S2 surface of the non-planner prism L2, when the direction toward the imaging surface is positive and the direction toward the object is negative and rad_L2S2 is the optical effective radius of the S2surface of the non-planar prism L2.
The condition (i) defines the range of field of view for ultra-wide-angle lens. If it falls below this lower limit, large distortion, which has been a problem as mentioned above, occurs. Further, even if the configuration of the present invention is used, it becomes difficult to correct the distortion aberration generated when the upper limit is exceeded in a well-balanced manner together with the coma aberration and the curvature of field. Specifically, the resolution performance deteriorates due to an excessive increase in the power of the non-planar prism. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
(i) -2: 55 ≤ ω ≤ 70
The condition (ii) defines the range in which the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system can appropriately control the area of light flux incident on the non-planar prism while achieving the field of view defined by condition (i) . If it falls below the lower limit, the prism thickness becomes large, and a thickness such that it can be mounted on a thin product cannot be achieved. If the upper limit is exceeded, the prism thickness becomes smaller, but coma aberration and spherical aberration occur due to the sudden bending of light rays by the first lens, and good resolution performance cannot be obtained. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
(ii) -2: -2.8 ≤ f1 /f ≤ -1.3
The condition (iii) defines the range of power of the non-planar prism for satisfactorily correcting distortion and coma aberration, achieving miniaturization, and ensuring a sufficient amount of peripheral light. If this upper limit is exceeded, the power of the non-planar prism will be weakened, and the effect will be the same as that of a right-angle prism that has been usually used. If it falls below the lower limit, the power of the non-planar prism becomes excessively strong and the resolution performance deteriorates. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
(iii) -2: 3 ≤ f2 /f ≤ 7.5
Regarding peripheral light, it is known that as the field of view increases, the amount of peripheral light decreases due to the cosine fourth power law. One way to improve this issue is to generate distortion, which distorts the image as described above. Another method for improving peripheral light is to increase the vignetting factor. This means that the thickness of the luminous flux incident on the first lens L1 is made thicker than the central luminous flux. This enlargement of the peripheral luminous flux prevents a decrease in the amount of peripheral light. Regarding the content of the present invention, this vignetting factor can be maximized by observing the conditions (ii) and (iii) , leading to the result that the amount of peripheral light can be secured.
The condition (iv) defines the range for effectively achieving good correction of curvature of field and shortening of the optical overall length (TTL) . By satisfying this range, the curvature of field can be satisfactorily corrected and the total optical length can be shortened. If it exceeds the upper limit, the total optical length becomes longer, and if it falls below the lower limit, curvature of field occurs and the resolution performance deteriorates. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
(iv) -2: 1.6 ≤ f (G_rear) /f ≤ 2.5
The conditions (v) defines an optical overall length condition suitable for sufficiently reducing distortion and then satisfactorily correcting coma and curvature of field. Exceeding the upper limit will lead to an increase in the size of the lens module. The space is not infinite even though it is bent and lowered. If it falls below the lower limit, the above-mentioned aberration correction becomes insufficient and the resolution performance deteriorates. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
(v) -2: 7.6 ≤ TTL /f ≤ 14
The conditions (vi) keeps it possible to inject a light ray into the lens group G_rear with an appropriate angle of the light ray emitted from the image side surface of the non-planar prism L2. If it deviates from this range, it becomes difficult to maintain an ultra-wide-angle and aberration correction. Further, within this range, the ease of manufacturing the non-planar prism and the ease of assembling the front group and the rear group can be improved. From this viewpoint, the following range is more preferable.
(vi) -2: -0.1 ≤ sag_L2S2 /rad_L2S2 ≤ 0.05
With the ultra-wide-angle lens optical system of the present invention, the distortion can be maintained very low (less than 5%) despite the ultra-wide-angle. Further, it also enables the first lens L1 to be arranged close to the non-planar prism L2, in other word, to keep the thickness of the ultra-wide-angle lens module very small. Therefore, he ultra-wide-angle lens optical system of the present invention can be used in many mobile devices to provide both an ultra-wide angle and preferable image quality.
