DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

[0058] Various aspects of the present disclosure will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so as to better understand the present disclosure. It should be appreciated that the detailed description is merely an explanation for the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than a limitation to the scope of the present disclosure in any way. The same reference numerals designate the same elements throughout this specification. The expression “and/or” includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0059] It should be noted that, in the specification, expressions, such as “first” and “second” are merely used to distinguish one feature from another feature, rather than represent any limitations to the feature. Thus, a first lens discussed below may also be termed a second lens without departing from the teachings of the present disclosure.

[0060] In the accompanying drawings, for the convenience of explanation, the thicknesses, dimensions and shapes of lenses have been slightly exaggerated. Specifically, shapes of spherical surfaces or aspheric surfaces shown in the accompanying drawings are illustrated by examples. That is, shapes of the spherical surfaces or aspheric surfaces are not limited to the shapes of the spherical surfaces or the aspheric surfaces shown in the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings are merely examples, not strictly drawn to scale.

[0061] In addition, a paraxial area indicates an area near an optical axis. In the present disclosure, a surface closest to the object in each lens is referred to as an object side surface, and a surface closest to an image plane in each lens is referred to as an image side surface.

[0062] It should be further understood that the terms “comprising,” “including,” “having” and variants thereof, when used in this specification, specify the presence of stated characteristics, entireties, steps, operations, elements and/or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other characteristics, entireties, steps, operations, elements, components and/or combinations thereof. In addition, expressions, such as “at least one of,” when preceding a list of elements, modify the entire list of elements rather than an individual element in the list. Further, the use of “may,” when describing embodiments of the present disclosure, relates to “one or more embodiments of the present disclosure.” Also, the term “exemplary” is intended to refer to an example or illustration.

[0063] Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present disclosure belongs. It should be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly so defined herein.

[0064] It should also be noted that the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other on a non-conflict basis. The present disclosure will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0065] Characteristics, principles and other aspects of the present disclosure will be described below in detail.

[0066] An iris lens assembly according to exemplary implementations of the present disclosure includes, for example, two lenses (i.e., a first lens and a second lens). The first lens and the second lens are arranged in sequence from an object side to an image side along an optical axis.

[0067] In the exemplary implementations, the first lens may have a positive focal power, an object side surface of the first lens is a convex surface and an image side surface of the first lens is a concave surface. The second lens may have a negative focal power.

[0068] Alternatively, the iris lens assembly may further include a filter arranged between the second lens and an image plane. The filter maybe an infrared (IR) filter, and the infrared (IR) filter may be used to filter noise from visible light to achieve a high performance recognition effect of the lens assembly. A bandpass wave band of the filter may range from about 785 nm to about 835 nm, to ensure that irises of eye colors of different races can be accurately identified.

[0069] In the exemplary implementations, a spacing distance T12 between the first lens and the second lens on the optical axis and a distance TTL from the object side surface of the first lens to an image plane of the iris lens assembly on the optical axis may satisfy: T12/TTL>0.32, and more specifically, T12 and TTL may further satisfy: 0.33≤T12/TTL≤0.43. By reasonably distributing the spacing distance T12 between the first lens and the second lens on the optical axis and the distance TTL from the object side surface of the first lens to the image plane of the iris lens assembly on the optical axis, an incident angle of light may be reduced, optical aberrations may be reduced, thereby improving the resolution of the lens assembly.

[0070] To realize miniaturization of the lens assembly, effective radii of surfaces of the lenses may be optimized. For example, an effective radius DT11 of the object side surface of the first lens and an effective radius DT22 of an image side surface of the second lens may satisfy: 0.7<DT11/DT22<1, and more specifically, DT11 and DT22 may further satisfy: 0.80≤DT11/DT22≤0.99. For another example, an effective radius DT12 of the image side surface of the first lens and the effective radius DT22 of the image side surface of the second lens may satisfy: 0.7<DT12/DT22<1, and more specifically, DT12 and DT22 may further satisfy: 0.72≤DT12/DT22≤0.86.

[0071] In addition, to achieve a good combination with the chip while the miniaturization of the size of the lens assembly is realized, the effective radius DT12 of the image side surface of the second lens and ImgH, ImgH being a half of a diagonal length of an effective pixel area of an electronic photosensitive element on the image plane of the iris lens assembly, may be reasonably distributed. DT22 and ImgH may satisfy: 0.5<DT22/ImgH<1, and more specifically, DT22 and ImgH may further satisfy: 0.56≤DT22/ImgH≤0.79.

[0072] In the exemplary implementations, a maximum thickness ET1max of the first lens in a direction parallel to the optical axis and a minimum thickness ET1min of the first lens in the direction parallel to the optical axis may satisfy: 1<ET1max/ET1min<1.45, and more specifically, ET1max and ET1min may further satisfy: 1.10≤ET1max/ET1min≤1.40, to ensure the focal power of the first lens, thereby ensuring the recognition accuracy of the iris lens assembly.

[0073] In the exemplary implementations, an edge thickness ET1 of the first lens and a center thickness CT1 of the first lens on the optical axis may satisfy: 0.5<ET1/CT1<1, and more specifically, ET1 and CT1 may further satisfy: 0.53≤ET1/CT1≤0.74, to ensure that the overall focal power of the first lens from the center to the edge is positive, thereby ensuring the recognition accuracy of the iris lens assembly.

[0074] A maximum incident angle of a chief incident ray on the electronic photosensitive element may also be optimized, in order to effectively reduce the drift of the film system at an incident angle of the peripheral field of view, and reduce the bandwidth of the film system, which reduces interference effects. The maximum incident angle CRAmax of the chief incident ray on the electronic photosensitive element may satisfy: CRAmax<30°, and more specifically, CRAmax may further satisfy: 24.14°≤CRAmax≤29.03°. Such a configuration can also effectively improve the photosensitive efficiency of the light entering the chip, thereby enhancing the recognition effect of the iris lens assembly.

[0075] The distance TTL from the object side surface of the first lens to the image plane of the iris lens assembly on the optical axis, the half of the diagonal length ImgH of the effective pixel area of the electronic photosensitive element on the image plane of the iris lens assembly, and a total effective focal length f of the iris lens assembly may satisfy: 0.4 mm.sup.−1<TTL/(ImgH*f)<0.7 mm.sup.−1, and more specifically, TTL, ImgH and f may further satisfy: 0.61 mm.sup.−1≤TTL/(ImgH*f)≤0.67 mm.sup.−1, to ensure that the iris lens assembly possesses enough recognition accuracy while ensuring that the size of the lens assembly is as small as possible.

[0076] In the exemplary implementations, an aperture diaphragm for limiting light beams may be arranged between the object side and the first lens to improve the image quality of the lens assembly. At this moment, a radius of curvature R4 of the image side surface of the second lens and the total effective focal length f of the iris lens assembly may satisfy: |R4/f|<3, and more specifically, R4 and f may further satisfy: 0.65≤|R4/f|≤2.98, to achieve the high brightness and high resolution of the iris lens assembly.

[0077] In other exemplary implementations, an aperture diaphragm for limiting light beams may be arranged between the first lens and the second lens to improve the image quality of the lens assembly. At this moment, a radius of curvature R2 of the image side surface of the first lens and an effective focal length f1 of the first lens may satisfy: 0.5<R2/f1<0.9, and more specifically, 0.73≤R2/f1≤0.81, to reduce the influence of a comatic aberration and improve the resolution of lens assembly.

[0078] The iris lens assembly according to the above implementations of the present disclosure may use multiple lenses. By reasonably distributing the focal powers, surface types and center thicknesses of various lenses, the axial spacing distances between the various lenses, and so on, the structure of the lens assembly may be effectively compacted and the miniaturization of the lens assembly may bey ensured, so that the iris lens assembly is more conducive to the production and processing and may be applied to portable electronic products. In the implementations of the present disclosure, at least one of the mirror surfaces of the lenses is an aspheric mirror surface. An aspheric lens is characterized in that its curvature continuously changes from the lens center to the periphery. In contrast to a spherical lens having a constant curvature from the lens center to the periphery, the aspheric lens has a better radius-of-curvature characteristic, and has the advantages of reducing the distortion aberration and the astigmatic aberration. The use of the aspheric lens can eliminate as much as possible the aberration that occurs during imaging, thereby improving the image quality.

[0079] However, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that, in a situation without departing from the technical solution claimed by the present disclosure, the number of lenses forming the lens assembly may be changed, to obtain the various results and advantages described in the specification of the present disclosure. For instance, in the descriptions of the implementations, an iris lens assembly having two lenses is described as an example, but the iris lens assembly is not limited to include two lenses. If necessary, the iris lens assembly may also include other numbers of lenses.

[0080] Specific embodiments applicable to the iris lens assembly of the above implementations will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Embodiment 1

[0081] An iris lens assembly according to embodiment 1 of the present disclosure is described below with reference to FIGS. 1-2E. FIG. 1 illustrates a schematic structural diagram of the iris lens assembly according to embodiment 1 of the present disclosure.

[0082] As shown in FIG. 1, the iris lens assembly includes, along an optical axis, two lenses L1 and L2 arranged in sequence from an object side to an image side. A first lens L1 has an object side surface S1 and an image side surface S2, and a second lens L2 has an object side surface S3 and an image side surface S4. Alternatively, the iris lens assembly may further include a filter L3 having an object side surface S5 and an image side surface S6. The filter L3 may be an infrared (IR) filter, and a bandpass wave band of the filter ranges from about 785 nm to about 835 nm. In the iris lens assembly of this embodiment, an aperture STO for limiting light beams may also be arranged between the object side and the first lens L1, to improve the image quality. Light from an object sequentially passes through the surfaces S1 to S6 and finally forms an image on an image plane S7.

[0083] Table 1 shows the surface type, the radius of curvature, the thickness, the material and the conic coefficient of each lens of the iris lens assembly in embodiment 1. The radius of curvature and the thickness are shown in millimeters (mm).

[0084] In this embodiment, an iris lens assembly having two lenses is used as an example. By reasonably distributing the focal lengths and the surface types of the lenses, the total length of the lens assembly is effectively reduced, the relative illumination of the lens assembly and the recognition accuracy of the lens assembly are effectively improved. Meanwhile, various aberrations are corrected, and the resolution and the image quality of the iris lens assembly are improved. A surface type x of each aspheric surface is defined by the following formula:

[00001]$\begin{array}{cc}x=\frac{c.Math.h^2}{1+\sqrt{1-\left(k+1\right).Math.c^2.Math.h^2}}+.Math.A.Math.i.Math.h^i& \left(1\right)\end{array}$

[0085] When an aspheric surface is at a height h along the optical axis, x is the distance sagittal height to the vertex of the aspheric surface; c is the paraxial curvature of the aspheric surface, and c=1/R (i.e., the paraxial curvature c is the reciprocal of the radius of curvature R in Table 1 above); k is the conic coefficient (given in Table 1 above); and Ai is the correction coefficient of the i-th order of the aspheric surface. Table 2 below shows the high-order coefficients A.sub.4, A.sub.6, A.sub.8, A.sub.10, A.sub.12, A.sub.14 and A.sub.16 that can be applied to the aspheric mirror surfaces S1-S4 in embodiment 1.

[0086] Table 3 shows the total effective focal length f of the iris lens assembly of embodiment 1, the effective focal length f1 of the first lens L1, the effective focal length f2 of the second lens L2, the total optical length TTL of the iris lens assembly (i.e., the distance from the object side surface S1 of the first lens L1 to the image plane S7 of the iris lens assembly on the optical axis), and the half of the diagonal length ImgH of the effective pixel area of the electronic photosensitive element on the image plane S7 of the iris lens assembly.

[0087] According to Table 3, it can be obtained that the total optical length TTL of the iris lens assembly, the half of the diagonal length ImgH of the effective pixel area of the electronic photosensitive element on the image plane S7, and the total effective focal length f of the iris lens assembly satisfy: TTL/(ImgH*f)=0.67 mm.sup.−1.

[0088] In this embodiment, the edge thickness ET1 of the first lens L1 and the center thickness CT1 of the first lens L1 on the optical axis satisfy: ET1/CT1=0.74. The effective radius DT11 of the object side surface S1 of the first lens L1 and the effective radius DT22 of the image side surface S4 of the second lens satisfy: DT11/DT22=0.80.
