DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
[0028] The lens assembly of the present disclosure is described in greater detail with illustrating embodiments thereof.
[0029] In one present disclosure, the optical system with an lens assembly, sequentially arranged from an object-side to an image-side along an optical axis, comprises an aperture stop, a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element and an IR-cut filter (infrared-cut filter) and an image plane. The first lens element with positive refractive power having a convex object-side surface is made of plastic which cooperating with an aperture stop deposed ahead can control the total light rays passing through the system and reduce the vignetting. The second lens element made of plastic with negative refractive power having a concave image-side surface and an object-side surface being concave in a peripheral region, which can balance the refractive power of the whole system and help to reduce the field curvature. The plastic third lens element with negative refractive power has a concave object-side surface and a convex image-side surface, which can modify the sensitivity of the system and readjust the principal point. The plastic fourth lens element with positive refractive power has an image-side surface being concave in a paraxial region and convex in a peripheral region, which provides better modification on spherical aberration of the system and refine the field of curve performance. An IR-cut filter is applied here to prevent infrared light from being absorbed by the sensor, which is able to maintain a steady image quality.
[0030] In the aforementioned disclosure of lens assembly, TTL is the total track length and BFL is the back focal length, R5 is the curvature radius of the object-side surface of said third lens element and R6 is the curvature radius of the image-side surface of said third lens element, T represents the total center thickness of four lens elements, AT represents the total center air thickness counted from the first lens element to the IR-cut filter, HFOV represents the half field of view of said lens assembly.
[0031] When 0.36<RI.sub.min<0.65 is satisfied, the image will be more uniform and favorable for human eyes. Meanwhile, manufacturing of lens assembly can be easier.
[0032] The lens assembly satisfies: HFOV33.67 so that effective field of view will be extended.
[0033] The relation that R5/R62.47 is preferred for extending in back focal length.
[0034] When T/AT2.35 is satisfied, it will be favorable to modified field of curve and fewer manufacturing difficulties will be encountered during the lens production process.
[0035] When the relation 0.299AC30.653 is satisfied, higher resolution ability of the module can be guaranteed and also the distortion and astigmatism can be effectively reduced
[0036] When the relation 0.101AC40.182 is satisfied, the spherical aberration and coma caused by off-axis rays can be modified.
[0037] The relation 1.855ASUM0.558 prevent the high order spherical aberration from becoming too large.
[0038] If the relation 6.62TTL/BFL8.21 satisfied, there will be more sufficient space to accommodate other components in the lens assembly.
[0039] Here, items like spherical aberration, field curvature and distortion were used to evaluate imaging quality, and for example, the value of distortion should be under 3%; the smaller the distances between three lines are in the longitudinal aberration, the better the chromatic property is. Also, smaller space between S and T curves will be better. In each aberration Figure, the Y-axis is the field of view counted from 0 to 1 field. If we select appropriate aspheric coefficients of lens surface, a good relative illumination value over 36% under any field can be achieved.
