Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to optical systems and optical apparatuses including the optical systems.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- To date, optical systems having a short lens length (optical length; length from a first lens adjacent to an object to an image plane) have been demanded for optical apparatuses such as digital still cameras, video cameras, and projectors.
- In general, compact optical systems having a short lens length tend to suffer from a greater amount of aberration, in particular, a greater amount of longitudinal and lateral chromatic aberration, resulting in lower optical performance.
- In particular, the amount of chromatic aberration is increased in optical systems having a shortened lens length.
- Well-known optical systems include lens systems of a so-called negative-lead type having a lens unit with a negative refractive power disposed in the anterior position and a lens unit with a positive refractive power disposed in the posterior position. Herein, the anterior position of the optical systems refers to a position adjacent to an object in the case of optical imaging systems such as cameras, or a position adjacent to a screen in the case of optical projection systems such as liquid-crystal projectors (magnification side). Also, the posterior position of the optical systems refers to a position adjacent to an image-taking side in the case of the optical imaging systems, or a position adjacent to an original picture in the case of the optical projection systems (demagnification side).
- Since optical systems of the negative-lead type have a lens unit with a negative refractive power in the anterior position, negative distortion can easily occur. In order to correct the aberration, materials having high refractive indices may be used for negative lenses in lens units having a negative refractive power.
- However, glass having a high refractive index generally has a high dispersion, and easily causes a greater amount of negative lateral chromatic aberration.
- In order to reduce the generation of chromatic aberration, materials having anomalous partial dispersion may be used, or diffractive optical elements may be disposed in optical paths.
- In general, a lens having a positive refractive power, which includes a low-dispersion optical material with an anomalous partial dispersion such as fluorite, and a lens having a negative refractive power, which includes a high-dispersion optical material, are used for reducing the occurrence of chromatic aberration. Optical systems including such lenses have been discussed in, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2002-62478 and U.S. Pat. No. 6,404,561.
- Moreover, liquid materials having a relatively high dispersion and a relatively high anomalous partial dispersion, and achromatic optical systems including such liquid materials are also known (U.S. Pat. No. 4,913,535).
- When a material having an anomalous partial dispersion is used for correcting the chromatic aberration of an optical system, the number of lenses in the optical system tends to be increased, thereby increasing the optical length. Moreover, it is very difficult to machine anomalous partial dispersion glass such as fluorite.
- Furthermore, the specific gravity of the material is relatively large compared with that of other low-dispersion glasses without anomalous partial dispersion, and thus the entire lens system tends to be increased in weight. For example, the specific gravity of fluorite is 3.18, and that of a glass known under the trade name of FK01 is 3.63.
- In contrast, the specific gravities of trade name materials FK5 and BK7 having low anomalous partial dispersion are 2.46 and 2.52, respectively.
- Surfaces of anomalous partial dispersion glasses are easily damaged, and anomalous partial dispersion glasses having large diameters can be easily cracked with sudden temperature changes. Thus, application of materials having anomalous partial dispersion to optical systems is limited.
- Liquid materials as discussed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,913,535 require structures for hermetically containing the liquid materials, resulting in difficulties in manufacturing optical systems including such materials. Also, it is difficult to apply the liquid materials to optical systems due to changes in refractive indices and dispersion characteristics according to temperature.
- At least one exemplary embodiment is directed to an optical system that can be used in an optical apparatus (e.g., silver-salt film cameras, digital still cameras, video cameras, telescopes, binoculars, projectors, copying machines, and other optical apparatus as known by one of ordinary skill in the relevant arts).
- At least one exemplary embodiment is directed to an optical system capable of appropriately correct chromatic aberration, capable of being easily manufactured, and having high optical performance.
- An optical system according to an aspect of the present invention includes at least one first refractive optical element which includes a solid material satisfying the following conditional expression (1), and at least one second refractive optical element which includes a solid material satisfying the following conditional expression (2):
-
−1.33×10−3 ×νd+6.7×10−1 <θgF (1) -
−1.63×10−3 ×νd+6.2×10−1 >θgF (2) - where νd and θgF indicate the Abbe number and the partial dispersion ratio, respectively. The Abbe number νd and the partial dispersion ratio θgF are defined by the following expressions:
-
νd=(Nd−1)/(NF−NC) -
θgF=(Ng−NF)/(NF−NC) - where Ng, Nd, NF, and NC indicate refractive indices of the corresponding materials with respect to g line (wavelength of 435.8 nm), F line (wavelength of 486.1 nm), d line (wavelength of 587.6 nm), and C line (wavelength of 656.3 nm).

FIGS. 1 , 3, 5, and 7 are cross-sectional views of lenses at a wide-angle end.FIGS. 2A to 2C , 4A to 4C, 6A to 6C, and 8A to 8C illustrate aberration at the wide-angle end (A), at an intermediate position of a zoom range (B), and at a telephoto end (C).FIGS. 10 and 12 illustrate aberration when a focus of an optical system is adjusted to an object at infinity. - Optical systems (e.g., OL1-OL6) according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention can be used for imaging and/or optical apparatus (e.g., silver-salt film cameras, digital still cameras, video cameras, telescopes, binoculars, projectors, copying machines, and other optical apparatus as known by one of ordinary skill in the relevant arts). In the cross-sectional views of the lenses, the left side is adjacent to an object (the anterior position), and the right side is adjacent to an image-taking side (the posterior position).
- When the optical systems according to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are used as projector lenses for projectors, the left side is adjacent to a screen and the right side is adjacent to an original picture.
- In the cross-sectional views of the lenses, reference characters OL, SP, FS, and FC indicate an optical system, an aperture stop, an F-number stop, and a flare-cutting stop, respectively.
- Reference characters Lij indicate ith lens units where i indicates the ordinal position of the lens unit from the object side, and j identifies a particular exemplary embodiment's lens unit (e.g., L1 a-f, L2 a-f, L3 a-f, L4 a-f, L5 a-c, and L6 a).
- An image plane IP corresponds to an imaging surface (e.g., the imaging surface) of a solid-state image-pickup device (photoelectric transducer) such as a charge-coupled device (CCD) sensor and a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) sensor when the optical systems are used for video cameras or digital still cameras; and corresponds to a film surface when the optical systems are used for silver-salt film cameras.
- Arrows denote tracks of the lens units during zooming from the wide-angle end to the telephoto end (e.g., A1-A4; B1-B4; C1-C4; D1-D4; and E1-E3).
- In the aberration drawings, reference characters d and g denote d line and g line, respectively; and reference characters ΔM and ΔS denote a meridional image surface and a sagittal image surface, respectively. The lateral chromatic aberration is illustrated with the g line. A reference character SC denotes the offence against the sine condition. Fno and ω indicate the F-number, and the half-angle of view, respectively, and the Y-axis in the spherical aberration's graph is entrance pupil radius, the Y-axis in the astigmatism's, distortion's and chromatic aberration of magnification's graphs is image height.
- The optical systems according to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention include one or more first refractive optical elements which include a solid material satisfying the following conditional expression (1), and one or more second refractive optical elements which include a solid material satisfying the following conditional expression (2):
-
−1.33×10−3 ×νd+6.7×10−1 <θgF (1) -
−1.63×10−3 ×νd+6.2×10−1 >θgF (2) - Herein, the term “solid materials” refers to materials in a solid state while the optical systems are used, and can be in any state before the optical systems are used, for example, during manufacturing. For example, materials that are in a liquid state during manufacturing and are hardened into solids correspond to the solid materials here.
- Moreover, the term “refractive optical elements” herein refers to refractive lenses that affect incident light by the action of refraction, and do not include diffractive optical elements that affect incident light by the action of diffraction.
- Features of dispersion characteristics of the optical materials used for the optical systems will now be described.
- In general, during correction of lateral chromatic aberration in lens systems having a wide angle of view, the g line becomes overcorrected when the C line and the F line are appropriately corrected with respect to the d line serving as a reference wavelength, whereas the F line becomes undercorrected when the C line and the g line are appropriately corrected with respect to the d line serving as the reference wavelength.
- In contrast, during correction of lateral chromatic aberration in telephoto lens systems, the g line becomes undercorrected when the C line and the F line are appropriately corrected with respect to the d line serving as the reference wavelength, whereas the F line becomes overcorrected when the C line and the g line are appropriately corrected with respect to the d line serving as the reference wavelength.
- In order to appropriately correct the above types of aberration, a positive lens, which includes a material having a small partial dispersion ratio θgF, or a negative lens, which includes a material having a large partial dispersion ratio θgF, can be disposed adjacent to the object remote from the aperture stop in the lens systems having a wide angle of view, for example.
- Alternatively, a positive lens, which includes a material having a large partial dispersion ratio θgF, or a negative lens, which includes a material having a small partial dispersion ratio θgF, can be disposed adjacent to the image-taking side remote from the aperture stop.
- In the telephoto lens systems, a positive lens, which includes a material having a large partial dispersion ratio θgF, or a negative lens, which includes a material having a small partial dispersion ratio θgF, can be disposed adjacent to the object remote from the aperture stop.
- Alternatively, a positive lens, which includes a material having a small partial dispersion ratio θgF, or a negative lens, which includes a material having a large partial dispersion ratio θgF, can be disposed adjacent to the image-taking side remote from the aperture stop.
- These lenses are not used unconditionally. The Petzval sum of all the optical systems, effects on aberration such as spherical aberration and distortion, and fixing of the lens systems to lens barrels should be considered in order to find the best solution.
- Accordingly, the optical systems according to the exemplary embodiments of the present invention include at least one first refractive optical element such as a lens and a film having a refractive power, which includes a solid material satisfying the above-described conditional expression (1), and at least a second refractive optical element satisfying the above-described conditional expression (2).
- A non-limiting example of a solid material that satisfies the conditional expressions (1) and (2) include a resin containing inorganic particulates dispersed therein.
- For example, solid materials that satisfy the conditional expression (1) include an ultraviolet (UV) curable resin (Nd=1.635, νd=22.7, θgF=0.69), and an N-polyvinylcarbazole (Nd=1.696, νd=17.7, θgF=0.69).
- Other solid materials can be employed as long as the conditional expression (1) is satisfied.
- Solid materials that satisfy the conditional expression (2) include a UV curable acrylic polymer containing indium-tin oxide (ITO) particulates in a mixture ratio of about 1 to 20%, the acrylic polymer being used as materials for replica aspheric lenses. When the mixture ratio is 20%, Nd, νd, and θgF of the material are 1.56987, 13.27, and 0.289, respectively.
- Other sold materials can be employed as long as the conditional expression (2) is satisfied.
- Signs of refractive power of the lenses or the films having a refractive power which includes the solid materials can be arbitrarily selected regardless of directions of correction of the lateral chromatic aberration as long as the conditional expressions (1) and (2) are satisfied. As a result, the lateral chromatic aberration can be appropriately corrected, and at the same time, corrections of, for example, the longitudinal aberration and the oblique aberration are facilitated.
- Moreover, correction of the lateral chromatic aberration using a plurality of refractive optical elements facilitates balancing the lateral chromatic aberration against the longitudinal chromatic aberration.
- A more useful range of the conditional expressions (1) and (2) can be set as below:
-
−1.33×10−3 ×νd+7.0×10−1 <θgF (1a) -
−1.63×10−3 ×νd+5.0×10−1 >θgF (2a) - Next, features of the individual exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described.
- A first exemplary embodiment shown in
