Abstract
The present invention relates to an imaging lens, the imaging lens including, in an ordered way from an object side, a first lens having positive (+) refractive power and convexly formed at an object side surface; a second lens having positive (+) refractive power and concavely formed at an object side surface; and a third lens having negative (−) refractive power, wherein the imaging lens meets a conditional expression of 1.6<ND3<1.7, where ND3 is a refractive index of the third lens.
Claims12
An imaging lens comprising, in an ordered way from an object side:
- a first lens having positive (+) refractive power;
- a second lens having positive (+) refractive power;
- a third lens having negative (−) refractive power;
- a photo-detector;
- and
- a filter placed between the photo-detector and the third lens, wherein the filter is closer to the third lens than it is to the photo-detector;
- wherein an object side surface of the first lens is convexly formed at an optical axis of the imaging lens, an image side surface of the first lens is convexly formed at the optical axis of the imaging lens, an object side surface of the second lens is concavely formed at the optical axis of the imaging lens, an image side surface of the second lens is convexly formed at the optical axis of the imaging lens, an object side surface of the third lens is convexly formed at the optical axis of the imaging lens, and an image side surface of the third lens is concavely formed at the optical axis of the imaging lens, an object side surface of the third lens is convexly formed at an optical axis of the imaging lens,
- wherein the imaging lens meets a conditional expression of 1.5<ND<1.53, where ND is a refractive index of the first and second lenses,
- wherein the refractive index of the first lens is the same as that of the second lens,
- wherein the imaging lens meets a conditional expression of 1.6<ND3<1.7, where ND3 is a refractive index of the third lens;
- wherein the imaging lens meets a conditional expression of 20<Vd3<30, where Vd3 is an Abbe's number of the third lens;
- wherein the imaging lens meets a conditional expression of 50<Vd<60, where Vd is an Abbe's number of the first and second lenses;
- wherein a power of the second lens is greater than that of the first and third lenses, and
- wherein a first distance between the image side surface of the first lens and the object side surface of the second lens is larger than a second distance between an image side surface of the second lens and the object side surface of the third lens at the optical axis.
