Abstract
Present embodiments provide for a mobile device and an optical imaging lens thereof. The optical imaging lens comprises an aperture stop and four lens elements positioned sequentially from an object side to an image side. Through controlling the convex or concave shape of the surfaces of the lens elements and designing parameters satisfying at least one inequality, the optical imaging lens shows better optical characteristics and the total length of the optical imaging lens is shortened.
Claims19
An optical imaging lens, sequentially from an object side to an image side along an optical axis, comprising first, second, third, and fourth lens elements, each of said first, second, third, and fourth lens elements having refracting power, an object-side surface facing toward the object side, an image-side surface facing toward the image side, and a central thickness defined along an optical axis, wherein:
- said first lens element has negative refracting power, said object-side surface of said first lens element comprises a convex portion in a vicinity of a periphery of the-first lens element, said image-side surface of said first lens element comprises a concave portion in a vicinity of the optical axis and a concave portion in a vicinity of a periphery of the-first lens element;
- said second lens element has positive refracting power, said object-side surface of said second lens element comprises a convex portion in a vicinity of the optical axis and a convex portion in a vicinity of a periphery of the second lens element;
