Description
本申请涉及光学技术领域,尤其涉及到透镜组件及其制备方法、透镜模组、电子设备。The present application relates to the field of optical technology, and in particular to a lens assembly and a preparation method thereof, a lens module, and an electronic device.
传统透镜主要利用折射原理对入射的光线进行折射,使得光线汇聚或发散,进而实现成像或能量收集等功能。不同于传统透镜,平面透镜主要通过微纳结构对光的衍射作用对光线进行汇聚或发散。相比于传统折射透镜,平面透镜因其独特的光学性能和潜在的应用价值受到广泛关注。Traditional lenses mainly use the principle of refraction to refract incident light, causing it to converge or diverge, thereby achieving functions such as imaging or energy collection. Unlike traditional lenses, planar lenses mainly use the diffraction effect of micro-nano structures to converge or diverge light. Compared with traditional refractive lenses, planar lenses have attracted widespread attention due to their unique optical properties and potential application value.
目前,平面透镜不能兼顾带宽性能和简便适用性,成像性能不能满足使用需求。At present, planar lenses cannot take into account both bandwidth performance and ease of use, and their imaging performance cannot meet usage requirements.

The lens assembly can meet the imaging performance requirements while having good performance in terms of bandwidth, thereby improving the imaging performance of the lens assembly.
第一方面,本申请提供一种透镜组件,该透镜组件可以应用在成像领域,例如热红外成像、近红外成像等场合。该透镜组件包括衬底、成像结构和膜层结构。成像结构和膜层结构分别设置于衬底厚度方向的两侧,衬底为成像结构和膜层结构提供支撑。其中,成像结构包括阵列设置的多个微结构,可以认为,成像结构为超构表面。任意两个微结构中心之间的距离小于目标波长的一半,以抑制目标波的高阶衍射,降低目标波的散射,进而降低对成像质量的影响。此处的目标波可以认为是透镜组件的工作波段,具体可以是光线或电磁波。当目标波穿过成像结构时,多个微结构能够对目标波进行相位调制,使得目标波的相位发生改变,进而产生折射,满足成像要求。膜层结构包括多个膜层,多个膜层沿衬底的厚度方向周期性叠置。在每个叠置周期内包括至少两个材质不同的膜层,该至少两个膜层具有一定叠置顺序,每个周期内的膜层的叠置顺序相同。对于膜层结构,多个膜层的排布周期大于等于2,依据多膜层技术(multi-layers coating),使得目标波在工作波段形成多层干涉,改变带宽实现滤波,还可以增强工作波段的光线的透射率。该膜层结构使平面透镜在工作波段的效率更高,同时抑制非工作波段的透光率,使透镜的成像性能更好。In the first aspect, the present application provides a lens assembly, which can be used in the field of imaging, such as thermal infrared imaging, near-infrared imaging and the like. The lens assembly includes a substrate, an imaging structure and a film layer structure. The imaging structure and the film layer structure are respectively arranged on both sides of the thickness direction of the substrate, and the substrate provides support for the imaging structure and the film layer structure. Among them, the imaging structure includes a plurality of microstructures arranged in an array, and it can be considered that the imaging structure is a metasurface. The distance between the centers of any two microstructures is less than half of the target wavelength to suppress the high-order diffraction of the target wave, reduce the scattering of the target wave, and thus reduce the impact on the imaging quality. The target wave here can be considered as the working band of the lens assembly, which can be light or electromagnetic wave. When the target wave passes through the imaging structure, the plurality of microstructures can phase modulate the target wave, so that the phase of the target wave changes, thereby generating refraction to meet the imaging requirements. The film layer structure includes a plurality of film layers, and the plurality of film layers are periodically stacked along the thickness direction of the substrate. At least two film layers of different materials are included in each stacking period, and the at least two film layers have a certain stacking order, and the stacking order of the film layers in each period is the same. For the film layer structure, the arrangement period of multiple film layers is greater than or equal to 2. Based on the multi-layer coating technology, the target wave forms multi-layer interference in the working band, changes the bandwidth to achieve filtering, and can also enhance the transmittance of light in the working band. This film layer structure makes the planar lens more efficient in the working band, while suppressing the transmittance of the non-working band, so that the imaging performance of the lens is better.

在光学领域,平面透镜以其结构轻巧、适用性强的优点而得到广泛关注。具体地,超构透镜是平面透镜中的代表技术。超构透镜是一种基于超构材料的平面透镜,通过微纳结构对光线的衍射作用对光线进行汇聚或发散,具有更轻薄、更高设计自由度、加工工艺与半导体工艺兼容等优点。但是,超构透镜的宽带性能较差,影响了成像性能,限制了该技术的广泛应用。In the field of optics, planar lenses have attracted widespread attention due to their lightweight structure and strong applicability. Specifically, meta-lens is a representative technology among planar lenses. Meta-lens is a planar lens based on meta-materials. It converges or diverges light through the diffraction effect of micro-nano structures on light. It has the advantages of being lighter, thinner, having higher design freedom, and its processing technology is compatible with semiconductor processes. However, the broadband performance of meta-lens is poor, which affects the imaging performance and limits the widespread application of this technology.
为此,本申请实施例提供一种透镜组件及其制备方法、透镜模组、电子设备,其中的透镜组件在满足成像性能要求的同时,在带宽方面具有良好的表现,具有更好的成像性能,适用面更广。 To this end, the embodiments of the present application provide a lens assembly and a preparation method thereof, a lens module, and an electronic device, wherein the lens assembly has good performance in bandwidth while meeting the imaging performance requirements, has better imaging performance, and is more applicable.
为了使本申请的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合附图对本申请作进一步地详细描述。In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

如图1所示,本申请实施例提供一种透镜组件10,该透镜组件10可以应用在光学领域,具体包括但不限于成像、检测监测等场合。具体地,透镜组件10包括衬底1、成像结构2以及膜层结构3。沿衬底1的厚度方向,成像结构2和膜层结构3分别设置于衬底1两侧。成像结构2包括多个微结构21,多个微结构21在衬底1背膜层结构3的表面阵列。此处,微结构21可以按照一定的规律阵列,也可以不规律阵列。微结构21为亚波长单元,可以认为成像结构2为超构表面。该膜层结构3包括多个膜层31,多个膜层31沿衬底1的厚度方向周期性叠置。滤波单元3由多个周期性叠置的膜层31形成,可以将膜层结构3看做利用多膜层技术滤波的结构。多层膜技术的原理在于利用光线或电磁波在多层膜之间的干涉作用,对特定波段形成高透射或高反射的功能。具体地,在目标波穿过多膜层结构时,多膜层能够使目标波在工作波段形成多层干涉,改变带宽实现滤波。此外,多膜层结构还可以增强目标波的光线的透射率。As shown in FIG1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a lens assembly 10, which can be used in the optical field, specifically including but not limited to imaging, detection and monitoring and other occasions. Specifically, the lens assembly 10 includes a substrate 1, an imaging structure 2 and a film layer structure 3. Along the thickness direction of the substrate 1, the imaging structure 2 and the film layer structure 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the substrate 1. The imaging structure 2 includes a plurality of microstructures 21, and the plurality of microstructures 21 are arrayed on the surface of the back film layer structure 3 of the substrate 1. Here, the microstructures 21 can be arrayed according to a certain regularity or irregularly. The microstructure 21 is a sub-wavelength unit, and the imaging structure 2 can be considered as a metasurface. The film layer structure 3 includes a plurality of film layers 31, and the plurality of film layers 31 are periodically stacked along the thickness direction of the substrate 1. The filtering unit 3 is formed by a plurality of periodically stacked film layers 31, and the film layer structure 3 can be regarded as a structure for filtering using multi-film layer technology. The principle of multilayer film technology is to use the interference of light or electromagnetic waves between multilayer films to form a high transmission or high reflection function for a specific band. Specifically, when the target wave passes through the multi-film layer structure, the multi-film layer can make the target wave form multi-layer interference in the working band, change the bandwidth to achieve filtering. In addition, the multi-film layer structure can also enhance the transmittance of the light of the target wave.
本申请实施例所提供的透镜组件10,成像结构2通过多个微结构21可以抑制目标波的高阶衍射,尽可能地减少目标波的散热,降低目标波的散射对成像质量的影响。而膜层结构3通过多个膜层31可以使目标波在工作波段形成多层干涉,改变带宽实现滤波,还可以增强目标波的光线的透射率。对于膜层结构3,目标波可以是入射光,也可以是透射光。In the lens assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the imaging structure 2 can suppress the high-order diffraction of the target wave through multiple microstructures 21, reduce the heat dissipation of the target wave as much as possible, and reduce the influence of the scattering of the target wave on the imaging quality. The film layer structure 3 can make the target wave form multi-layer interference in the working band through multiple film layers 31, change the bandwidth to achieve filtering, and enhance the transmittance of the light of the target wave. For the film layer structure 3, the target wave can be incident light or transmitted light.
其中,超构表面也可以称之为超表面。超构表面是采用超构材料阵列形成的结构,超构材料的广义定义是指人工设计的具有传统自然材料不具备的物理性质的单元结构的复合体。超构材料的物理性质由亚波长单元的结构、排列和材料决定。其中,亚波长单元指的是径向尺寸远小于目标波长的结构。超构表面是超构材料的一种二维形式,即具有亚波长单元的结构构成的表面结构。基于广义斯涅耳定律(generalized laws of reflection and refraction),光线在经过超构表面时的传输规则与经过普通光学器件界面上所遵循的传输规则不同。传统光学元件依赖于光传播过程中逐渐积累的相位,而通过在波长范围内引入突变的相位变化,可以观察到这种相位沿界面线性变化的异常反射和折射现象。Among them, metasurfaces can also be called metasurfaces. Metasurfaces are structures formed by arrays of metamaterials. The broad definition of metamaterials refers to a complex of artificially designed unit structures with physical properties that traditional natural materials do not have. The physical properties of metamaterials are determined by the structure, arrangement and material of subwavelength units. Among them, subwavelength units refer to structures with radial dimensions much smaller than the target wavelength. Metasurfaces are a two-dimensional form of metamaterials, that is, surface structures composed of structures with subwavelength units. Based on the generalized laws of reflection and refraction, the transmission rules of light when passing through a metasurface are different from the transmission rules followed when passing through the interface of ordinary optical devices. Traditional optical elements rely on the phase that gradually accumulates during the propagation of light, and by introducing a sudden phase change within the wavelength range, the abnormal reflection and refraction phenomenon of linear phase change along the interface can be observed.
为了使透镜组件10具有良好的透光性,本申请实施例中的衬底1、微结构21以及膜层31均可以选用在工作波段低损耗的材料制备。此处的低损耗,指的是该材料在工作波段对工作波的吸收很低,具体可以认为该材料对工作波的吸收率低于40%。例如,该材料对工作波的吸收率为15-20%。 In order to make the lens assembly 10 have good light transmittance, the substrate 1, microstructure 21 and film layer 31 in the embodiment of the present application can be made of materials with low loss in the working band. The low loss here means that the material has very low absorption of the working wave in the working band, and specifically, it can be considered that the absorption rate of the material to the working wave is less than 40%. For example, the absorption rate of the material to the working wave is 15-20%.
具体地,如图2所示,成像结构2中微结构21可以为柱状体。在本申请实施例中,微结构21的径向尺寸d为微米级别或纳米级别。其中,径向尺寸d指的是垂直于衬底1厚度方向的尺寸。多个微结构21可以规则或不规则地排布,任意两个微结构21的中心之间的距离D小于目标波长的一半。此处的目标波,指的是该透镜组件10工作时所允许通过的光或电磁波,也即透镜组件10的工作波段。当目标波穿过成像结构2时,多个微结构21能够抑制目标波的高阶衍射,降低目标波的散射,尽可能避免影响成像质量。在具体应用中,可以通过对微结构21的形状以及排布方式进行设计,可以达到预期的成像效果。Specifically, as shown in Figure 2, the microstructure 21 in the imaging structure 2 can be a columnar body. In an embodiment of the present application, the radial dimension d of the microstructure 21 is in the micrometer level or nanometer level. Among them, the radial dimension d refers to the dimension perpendicular to the thickness direction of the substrate 1. Multiple microstructures 21 can be arranged regularly or irregularly, and the distance D between the centers of any two microstructures 21 is less than half of the target wavelength. The target wave here refers to the light or electromagnetic wave allowed to pass through when the lens assembly 10 is working, that is, the working band of the lens assembly 10. When the target wave passes through the imaging structure 2, the multiple microstructures 21 can suppress the high-order diffraction of the target wave, reduce the scattering of the target wave, and avoid affecting the imaging quality as much as possible. In specific applications, the shape and arrangement of the microstructure 21 can be designed to achieve the desired imaging effect.
其中,微结构21的形状不作限制,可以是任何亚波长单元的几何形态。微结构21可以是规则的几何形态,也可以是不规则的几何形态。示例性地,微结构21为柱状、类柱状、圆台状、类圆台状、圆锥状、类圆锥状、针状、类针状中的其中一种。示例性地,微结构21可能是规则的结构,例如图3a所示的立方体形、图3b所示的六棱柱形以及图3c所示的圆柱体形以及图3d所示的圆台形。微结构21还可能是不规则的结构,例如图3e所示的类柱状以及图3f所示的类圆台形。Among them, the shape of the microstructure 21 is not limited, and it can be any geometric form of a subwavelength unit. The microstructure 21 can be a regular geometric form or an irregular geometric form. Exemplarily, the microstructure 21 is one of a columnar, a quasi-columnar, a truncated cone, a quasi-truncated cone, a cone, a quasi-conical, a needle, and a quasi-needle. Exemplarily, the microstructure 21 may be a regular structure, such as the cube shown in FIG. 3a, the hexagonal prism shown in FIG. 3b, the cylindrical shape shown in FIG. 3c, and the truncated cone shown in FIG. 3d. The microstructure 21 may also be an irregular structure, such as the quasi-columnar shown in FIG. 3e and the quasi-truncated cone shown in FIG. 3f.
多个微结构21的排列方式可能有多种。示例性地,如图4a所示,以圆柱形的微结构21为例,多个微结构21以类似于同心圆的方式阵列分布。其中,衬底1示例为圆形。There may be many ways to arrange the multiple microstructures 21. For example, as shown in Fig. 4a, taking a cylindrical microstructure 21 as an example, the multiple microstructures 21 are arranged in an array in a manner similar to concentric circles. The substrate 1 is exemplified as a circle.
图4b示出了图4a中虚线框内R区域的部分结构放大图。如图4b所示,多个微结构21包括中心微结构21a,中心微结构21a可以位于衬底1的中心位置。多个微结构21还包括多个第一微结构21b、多个第二微结构21c、多个第三微结构21d、多个第四微结构21e、多个第五微结构21f。多个第一微结构21b以中心微结构21a为中心环形阵列,多个第二微结构21c以中心微结构21a为中心环形阵列,多个第三微结构21d以中心微结构21a为中心环形阵列,多个第四微结构21e以中心微结构21a为中心环形阵列,多个第五微结构21f以中心微结构21a为中心环形阵列。沿衬底1的中心指向边缘,多个第一微结构21b、多个第三微结构21d、多个第四微结构21e、多个第五微结构21f呈同心圆式阵列分布。其中,第一微结构21b、第二微结构21c、第三微结构21d、第四微结构21e、第五微结构21f的直径可以相同,也可以不同。FIG4b shows an enlarged view of a portion of the structure of the R region within the dotted box in FIG4a. As shown in FIG4b, the plurality of microstructures 21 include a central microstructure 21a, and the central microstructure 21a can be located at the center of the substrate 1. The plurality of microstructures 21 also include a plurality of first microstructures 21b, a plurality of second microstructures 21c, a plurality of third microstructures 21d, a plurality of fourth microstructures 21e, and a plurality of fifth microstructures 21f. The plurality of first microstructures 21b are arranged in a circular array with the central microstructure 21a as the center, the plurality of second microstructures 21c are arranged in a circular array with the central microstructure 21a as the center, the plurality of third microstructures 21d are arranged in a circular array with the central microstructure 21a as the center, the plurality of fourth microstructures 21e are arranged in a circular array with the central microstructure 21a as the center, and the plurality of fifth microstructures 21f are arranged in a circular array with the central microstructure 21a as the center. From the center of the substrate 1 to the edge, the plurality of first microstructures 21b, the plurality of third microstructures 21d, the plurality of fourth microstructures 21e, and the plurality of fifth microstructures 21f are arranged in a concentric array. The diameters of the first microstructure 21 b , the second microstructure 21 c , the third microstructure 21 d , the fourth microstructure 21 e , and the fifth microstructure 21 f may be the same or different.
当然,微结构21还可能有其他的排布方式。示例性地,如图5a所示,微结构21呈圆柱形,多个微结构21呈六边形阵列。或者,如图5b所示,微结构21呈立方体形,多个微结构21矩形阵列。Of course, the microstructures 21 may have other arrangements. For example, as shown in FIG5a , the microstructure 21 is cylindrical, and multiple microstructures 21 are arranged in a hexagonal array. Alternatively, as shown in FIG5b , the microstructure 21 is cubic, and multiple microstructures 21 are arranged in a rectangular array.
在一些实施例中,如图6所示,成像结构2中微结构21可以为环状体,多个环状体呈同心圆分布。对于每个微结构21,环状体具有环中心线。此处的环中心线指的是,沿环状体的径向,环状体任意一处的环内边缘与环外边缘之间的中心点所组成的线。示例性地,图6中用虚线示出了最外侧的两个环状体的环中心线。任意两个相邻的环状体的环中心线之间的距离D2小于目标波长的一半,以期取得良好的成像效果。In some embodiments, as shown in FIG6 , the microstructure 21 in the imaging structure 2 may be an annular body, and a plurality of annular bodies are distributed in concentric circles. For each microstructure 21, the annular body has an annular centerline. The annular centerline here refers to a line formed by the center points between the inner edge of the annular body and the outer edge of the annular body at any point along the radial direction of the annular body. Exemplarily, the annular centerlines of the two outermost annular bodies are shown by dotted lines in FIG6 . The distance D2 between the annular centerlines of any two adjacent annular bodies is less than half of the target wavelength in order to achieve a good imaging effect.
本申请实施例所提供的透镜组件10中,成像结构2通过多个微结构21排布形成,使得成像结构2能够呈平面型。In the lens assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the imaging structure 2 is formed by arranging a plurality of microstructures 21 , so that the imaging structure 2 can be planar.
如图7所示,膜层结构3包括多个膜层31周期性叠置,每个叠置周期T内至少包括两个材质不同的膜层31。为了达到良好的成像效果,此处多个膜层31的叠置周期T可以设置为至少为2个。示例性地,多个膜层31的叠置周期T的数量为3,即多个膜层31具有3个叠置周期T。每个叠置周期T内具有三个膜层31,该三个膜层31分别为第一膜层 31a、第二膜层31b、第三膜层31c,每个叠置周期T内的膜层31材质均不相同。以图7所示的结构为参照,沿顶部指向底部的方向,第一膜层31a、第二膜层31b、第三膜层31c作为一个周期T内的固定搭配重复设置三层结构。在应用中,根据具体的应用需求适配性地配置多个膜层31,使得膜层结构3能够在透镜组件10的工作波段抑制非工作波段的杂光,从而提高透光率,进而提高透镜组件10的成像性能。As shown in FIG7 , the film layer structure 3 includes a plurality of film layers 31 stacked periodically, and each stacking period T includes at least two film layers 31 of different materials. In order to achieve a good imaging effect, the stacking period T of the plurality of film layers 31 can be set to at least 2. Exemplarily, the number of stacking periods T of the plurality of film layers 31 is 3, that is, the plurality of film layers 31 have 3 stacking periods T. Each stacking period T includes three film layers 31, and the three film layers 31 are respectively a first film layer 31, a second film layer 31, a third film layer 31, a fourth film layer 31, a fifth ... 31a, the second film layer 31b, the third film layer 31c, the materials of the film layers 31 in each stacking period T are different. Taking the structure shown in FIG7 as a reference, along the direction from the top to the bottom, the first film layer 31a, the second film layer 31b, and the third film layer 31c are repeatedly set as a fixed combination within a period T. In application, multiple film layers 31 are adaptively configured according to specific application requirements, so that the film layer structure 3 can suppress stray light in the non-working band in the working band of the lens assembly 10, thereby improving the transmittance, and then improving the imaging performance of the lens assembly 10.

The lens assembly 10 can be in a planar shape with a relatively small size, and has the advantages of being light and thin. Among them, the imaging structure 2 can use multiple microstructures 21 to phase modulate the incident light, so that the incident wave converges or disperses to achieve the desired imaging effect. The multiple film layers 31 in the membrane structure 3 can be set to have functions such as high transmission or high reflection in a specific band as needed to match the corresponding bandwidth. In addition, the membrane structure 3 can also suppress the transmittance of non-working bands and improve the optical performance of the lens assembly 10. It can be considered that the above-mentioned specific band refers to the working band or target band of the lens assembly 10 adapted to the application scenario. Of course, the optical performance of the lens assembly 10 includes but is not limited to imaging performance.
如上所述,本申请实施例所提供的透镜组件10具有较为宽泛的应用场景。以目标波为可见光或近红外光为例,成像结构2中的微结构21的材质可以为氮化硅或二氧化钛,膜层结构3中的膜层31的材质包括二氧化硅、氮化硅、二氧化钛、五氧化二钽、氟化镁、氟化钡、三氧化二铝、氟化钙、氯化钠、氯化钾、溴化钾中的至少两种。以目标波为热红外光为例,成像结构2中的微结构21的材质可以为锗、硅、硫化硒、硫化锌中的其中一种,膜层结构3中的膜层31的材质包括锗、硅、硒化锌、硫化锌、砷化镓、碲化镉、氟化钡、氯化钠、氯化钾、溴化钾中的至少两种。As described above, the lens assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application has a relatively wide range of application scenarios. Taking the target wave as visible light or near-infrared light as an example, the material of the microstructure 21 in the imaging structure 2 can be silicon nitride or titanium dioxide, and the material of the film layer 31 in the film layer structure 3 includes at least two of silicon dioxide, silicon nitride, titanium dioxide, tantalum pentoxide, magnesium fluoride, barium fluoride, aluminum trioxide, calcium fluoride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and potassium bromide. Taking the target wave as thermal infrared light as an example, the material of the microstructure 21 in the imaging structure 2 can be one of germanium, silicon, selenium sulfide, and zinc sulfide, and the material of the film layer 31 in the film layer structure 3 includes at least two of germanium, silicon, zinc selenide, zinc sulfide, gallium arsenide, cadmium telluride, barium fluoride, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and potassium bromide.
值得注意的是,微结构21可以独立于衬底1并固定于衬底1,微结构21也可以与衬底1为一体式结构,从而节省成本。当微结构21与衬底1具有一体式结构,微结构21和衬底1可以同时选用硅材料制备,具体可以为多晶硅。硅材料含量丰富,开采成本极低,能够降低制作成本。此外,硅材料的加工工艺能够与标准的半导体工艺相兼容,也能进一步降低制作透镜组件10的制作成本。It is worth noting that the microstructure 21 can be independent of the substrate 1 and fixed to the substrate 1, and the microstructure 21 can also be an integrated structure with the substrate 1, thereby saving costs. When the microstructure 21 and the substrate 1 have an integrated structure, the microstructure 21 and the substrate 1 can be made of silicon material at the same time, specifically polycrystalline silicon. The silicon material is abundant and the mining cost is extremely low, which can reduce the production cost. In addition, the processing technology of the silicon material is compatible with the standard semiconductor process, which can further reduce the production cost of the lens assembly 10.
如图8a所示,在一些实施例中,透镜组件10还包括介质结构4,该介质结构4设置于成像结构2背离衬底1的一侧。介质结构4覆盖成像结构2并填充在多个微结构21之间,可以认为,介质结构4能够包裹成像结构2中的多个微结构21。介质结构4与微结构21具有不同的折射率,光线或电磁波在穿过介质结构4与微结构21之间的界面时能够发生光线折射,从而能够满足超构表面的光线调制效果。在衬底1、成像结构2与介质结构4之间,衬底1可以与成像结构2的微结构21具有相同的材质,衬底1也可以与介质结构4具有相同的材质。当衬底1与微结构21具有相同的材质时,衬底1与成像结构21可以就有一体式结构。As shown in FIG8a, in some embodiments, the lens assembly 10 further includes a dielectric structure 4, which is disposed on the side of the imaging structure 2 facing away from the substrate 1. The dielectric structure 4 covers the imaging structure 2 and fills between the multiple microstructures 21. It can be considered that the dielectric structure 4 can wrap the multiple microstructures 21 in the imaging structure 2. The dielectric structure 4 and the microstructure 21 have different refractive indices, and light or electromagnetic waves can refract when passing through the interface between the dielectric structure 4 and the microstructure 21, thereby satisfying the light modulation effect of the metasurface. Between the substrate 1, the imaging structure 2 and the dielectric structure 4, the substrate 1 can have the same material as the microstructure 21 of the imaging structure 2, and the substrate 1 can also have the same material as the dielectric structure 4. When the substrate 1 and the microstructure 21 have the same material, the substrate 1 and the imaging structure 21 can have an integrated structure.
其中,介质结构4可以为固体,介质结构4可以覆盖微结构21背离衬底1的表面并填充多个微结构21之间的间隙,介质结构4能够对微结构21提供一定的保护作用。或者,介质结构4也可以为液体,此时需要借助覆膜等结构将液体的介质结构4保持在一定范围内,以覆盖微结构21背离衬底1的表面并填充多个微结构21之间的间隙。The dielectric structure 4 may be solid, and the dielectric structure 4 may cover the surface of the microstructure 21 away from the substrate 1 and fill the gaps between the multiple microstructures 21, and the dielectric structure 4 may provide a certain protection for the microstructure 21. Alternatively, the dielectric structure 4 may also be liquid, and in this case, the liquid dielectric structure 4 needs to be kept within a certain range by means of a coating or other structure, so as to cover the surface of the microstructure 21 away from the substrate 1 and fill the gaps between the multiple microstructures 21.
在一些实施例中,介质结构4背离衬底1的表面可以为中心对称的自由曲面。示例性地,如图8b所示,介质结构4背离衬底1的表面为凸面。这样的介质结构4,可以认为在成像结构2背离衬底1的一侧形成一凸透镜,能够对目标波起到聚光效果。或者,如图8c 所示,介质结构4背离衬底1的表面为凹面。这样的介质结构4,可以认为在成像结构2背离衬底1的一侧形成一凹透镜,能够对目标波起到发散效果。此外,还可以对介质结构4与成像结构2的结构进行调整,达到消除色差的效果。In some embodiments, the surface of the dielectric structure 4 facing away from the substrate 1 may be a centrally symmetrical free-form surface. For example, as shown in FIG8b , the surface of the dielectric structure 4 facing away from the substrate 1 is a convex surface. Such a dielectric structure 4 can be considered to form a convex lens on the side of the imaging structure 2 facing away from the substrate 1, which can have a focusing effect on the target wave. Alternatively, as shown in FIG8c As shown, the surface of the medium structure 4 facing away from the substrate 1 is a concave surface. Such a medium structure 4 can be considered to form a concave lens on the side of the imaging structure 2 facing away from the substrate 1, which can have a divergent effect on the target wave. In addition, the structure of the medium structure 4 and the imaging structure 2 can also be adjusted to achieve the effect of eliminating chromatic aberration.
以图8a所示的结构为例,如图9所示,为了提高透镜组件10的抗反射效果,在介质结构4背离衬底1的表面还可以设置一抗反射层5。Taking the structure shown in FIG. 8 a as an example, as shown in FIG. 9 , in order to improve the anti-reflection effect of the lens assembly 10 , an anti-reflection layer 5 may be further provided on the surface of the dielectric structure 4 facing away from the substrate 1 .
以衬底1与微结构21为一体式结构为例,本申请实施例还提供一种透镜组件的制备方法,图10示出了还制备方法的制备流程示意图。该制备方法具体可以包括以下步骤:Taking the substrate 1 and the microstructure 21 as an integrated structure as an example, the present application embodiment also provides a method for preparing a lens assembly, and FIG10 shows a schematic diagram of the preparation process of the preparation method. The preparation method may specifically include the following steps:
S1:提供一衬底,该衬底具有第一表面和第二表面,第一表面和第二表面沿衬底的厚度方向相对。S1: Provide a substrate having a first surface and a second surface, wherein the first surface and the second surface are opposite to each other along a thickness direction of the substrate.
如图11a所示,衬底1具有第一表面a1和第二表面a2,此处衬底1的第二表面a2朝上,第一表面a1朝下。As shown in FIG. 11 a , the substrate 1 has a first surface a1 and a second surface a2 , wherein the second surface a2 of the substrate 1 faces upward and the first surface a1 faces downward.
S2:在衬底的第二表面设置多个膜层,多个膜层沿衬底的厚度方向周期性叠置;多个膜层的叠置周期大于等于2,每个叠置周期内包括至少两个材质不同的膜层。S2: multiple film layers are arranged on the second surface of the substrate, and the multiple film layers are periodically stacked along the thickness direction of the substrate; the stacking period of the multiple film layers is greater than or equal to 2, and each stacking period includes at least two film layers of different materials.
如图11b所示,在衬底1的第二表面a2依次叠置多个膜层31,该多个膜层31能够形成膜层结构3。设置膜层31的工艺包括但不限于蒸镀、溅射镀等工艺。其中,该多个膜层31的周期性叠置规律可以参照图7所示例。As shown in FIG. 11b , a plurality of film layers 31 are sequentially stacked on the second surface a2 of the substrate 1, and the plurality of film layers 31 can form a film layer structure 3. The process of setting the film layer 31 includes but is not limited to evaporation, sputtering and other processes. The periodic stacking rule of the plurality of film layers 31 can be illustrated with reference to FIG. 7 .
S3:在衬底的第一表面形成多个微结构,任意两个微结构的中心之间的距离小于目标波长的一半。S3: forming a plurality of microstructures on the first surface of the substrate, wherein the distance between the centers of any two microstructures is less than half of the target wavelength.
如图11c所示,在衬底1的第一表面a1形成多个微结构21,该多个微结构21能够形成成像结构2,以对入射的光或电磁波进行调制满足光学需求。此处,微结构21示例性地为柱状体,任意两个微结构21的中心之间的距离小于目标波长的一半,微结构21能够抑制目标波的高阶衍射,降低目标波的散射,以优化成像质量。应当理解,微结构21与衬底1具有一体式结构,因此,微结构21背离衬底1的表面也即衬底1的第一表面a1。As shown in FIG11c, a plurality of microstructures 21 are formed on the first surface a1 of the substrate 1, and the plurality of microstructures 21 can form an imaging structure 2 to modulate the incident light or electromagnetic wave to meet the optical requirements. Here, the microstructure 21 is exemplarily a columnar body, and the distance between the centers of any two microstructures 21 is less than half of the target wavelength. The microstructure 21 can suppress the high-order diffraction of the target wave and reduce the scattering of the target wave to optimize the imaging quality. It should be understood that the microstructure 21 has an integrated structure with the substrate 1, and therefore, the surface of the microstructure 21 facing away from the substrate 1 is also the first surface a1 of the substrate 1.
一并参照图11b和图11c所示,在设置多个微结构21时,膜层结构3位于衬底1的底部。微结构21相较于透镜组件10是较为微小的结构,先制作膜层结构3,再制作微结构21,不会出现微结构21位于衬底1底部的情况,能够对微结构21起到一定的保护作用。Referring to FIG. 11b and FIG. 11c , when a plurality of microstructures 21 are provided, the film layer structure 3 is located at the bottom of the substrate 1. The microstructure 21 is a relatively small structure compared to the lens assembly 10. The film layer structure 3 is made first, and then the microstructure 21 is made. The microstructure 21 will not be located at the bottom of the substrate 1, and the microstructure 21 can be protected to a certain extent.
当透镜组件10还设置有实体结构的介质结构4时,介质结构4可以覆盖微结构21背离衬底1的表面并填充多个微结构21之间的间隙,介质结构4能够对微结构21提供一定的保护作用。此时,可以先在衬底1的第一表面a1制作多个微结构21以及介质结构4,然后将衬底1倒置,使得介质结构4和多个微结构21位于衬底1的底部,进而在衬底1的第二表面a2再制备膜层结构3。在这种制备流程中,可以认为上述步骤S2和步骤S3是先后倒置进行的。When the lens assembly 10 is also provided with a dielectric structure 4 of a solid structure, the dielectric structure 4 can cover the surface of the microstructure 21 away from the substrate 1 and fill the gaps between the multiple microstructures 21, and the dielectric structure 4 can provide a certain protection for the microstructure 21. At this time, multiple microstructures 21 and the dielectric structure 4 can be first made on the first surface a1 of the substrate 1, and then the substrate 1 can be inverted so that the dielectric structure 4 and the multiple microstructures 21 are located at the bottom of the substrate 1, and then the film layer structure 3 is prepared on the second surface a2 of the substrate 1. In this preparation process, it can be considered that the above steps S2 and S3 are successively inverted.
在具体实施时,如图12所示,上述步骤S3所示的在衬底的第一表面形成多个沿第一表面排布的微结构,具体可以包括以下步骤:In a specific implementation, as shown in FIG. 12 , forming a plurality of microstructures arranged along the first surface on the first surface of the substrate as shown in the above step S3 may specifically include the following steps:
S31:在衬底的第一表面形成多个第一结构。S31: forming a plurality of first structures on a first surface of a substrate.
如图13a所示,多个第一结构61沿衬底1的第一表面a1排布,在工艺设计中,第一结构61的排布规律与设计的微结构21的排布规律相对应。任意两个第一结构61之间相互隔离,可以认为,多个第一结构61是凸出于衬底1的第一表面a1的多个独立结构。As shown in FIG13a, a plurality of first structures 61 are arranged along the first surface a1 of the substrate 1. In the process design, the arrangement rule of the first structures 61 corresponds to the arrangement rule of the designed microstructure 21. Any two first structures 61 are isolated from each other, and it can be considered that the plurality of first structures 61 are a plurality of independent structures protruding from the first surface a1 of the substrate 1.
S32:刻蚀多个第一结构之间的衬底。S32: Etching the substrate between the plurality of first structures.
以多个第一结构61为参照,刻蚀多个第一结构61之间衬底1,使得衬底1的第一表 面a1形成多个微结构21,多个微结构21与多个第一结构61一一对应。Taking the plurality of first structures 61 as reference, the substrate 1 between the plurality of first structures 61 is etched so that the first surface of the substrate 1 A plurality of microstructures 21 are formed on the surface a1 , and the plurality of microstructures 21 correspond to the plurality of first structures 61 one by one.
S33:去除所述第一结构。S33: removing the first structure.
该步骤中,可以采用溶解等方式将图13b中的第一结构61去除,最终得到图11c所示的结构,即在衬底1的第一表面a1一侧形成多个微结构21,透镜组件10完成制作。In this step, the first structure 61 in FIG. 13b can be removed by dissolving or the like, and finally the structure shown in FIG. 11c is obtained, that is, a plurality of microstructures 21 are formed on one side of the first surface a1 of the substrate 1, and the lens assembly 10 is completed.
应当理解,上述制备方法是基于微结构21与衬底1具有一体式结构实现的,也就是说,微结构21是通过在衬底1的第一表面a1刻蚀形成的。当微结构21是独立于衬底1的结构时,可以在衬底1的第一表面a1设置一层用于形成微结构21的结构层,以第一结构61为参照刻蚀该结构层形成多个微结构21。It should be understood that the above preparation method is implemented based on the microstructure 21 and the substrate 1 having an integrated structure, that is, the microstructure 21 is formed by etching the first surface a1 of the substrate 1. When the microstructure 21 is a structure independent of the substrate 1, a structural layer for forming the microstructure 21 can be provided on the first surface a1 of the substrate 1, and the structural layer is etched with reference to the first structure 61 to form a plurality of microstructures 21.
其中,如图14所示,上述步骤S31中的在衬底的第一表面形成多个第一结构可以包括以下步骤:As shown in FIG. 14 , forming a plurality of first structures on the first surface of the substrate in the above step S31 may include the following steps:
S3111:在衬底的第一表面涂覆光刻胶并固化形成牺牲层。S3111: coating a photoresist on the first surface of the substrate and curing the photoresist to form a sacrificial layer.
具体地,可以采用旋涂的方式在衬底1的第一表面a1涂覆光刻胶并固化。经过步骤S3111后的结构可以参照图15a所示,该光刻胶形成覆盖衬底1的第一表面a1的牺牲层6。光刻胶的种类与厚度可以根据制作工艺进行选择。应当理解,光刻胶只是牺牲层6一种具体的材料,在具体制作过程中,还可能有其他的材料替换,本申请实施例只是对牺牲层6的结构与功能进行限。当然,牺牲层6可能还会有其他的名称,其作用主要体现在制备过程中,在最终制备得到的结构中并不存在牺牲层6。Specifically, a photoresist can be applied to the first surface a1 of the substrate 1 by spin coating and cured. The structure after step S3111 can be shown in FIG. 15a, and the photoresist forms a sacrificial layer 6 covering the first surface a1 of the substrate 1. The type and thickness of the photoresist can be selected according to the manufacturing process. It should be understood that the photoresist is only a specific material of the sacrificial layer 6. In the specific manufacturing process, other materials may be replaced. The embodiment of the present application only limits the structure and function of the sacrificial layer 6. Of course, the sacrificial layer 6 may have other names, and its role is mainly reflected in the preparation process. The sacrificial layer 6 does not exist in the structure finally prepared.
S3112:采用掩膜版曝光工艺,使牺牲层形成被照射的多个第一结构和未被照射的第二结构,第二结构填充于多个第一结构之间。S3112: using a mask exposure process to form a plurality of irradiated first structures and unirradiated second structures on the sacrificial layer, wherein the second structures are filled between the plurality of first structures.
如图15b所示,掩膜版7具有镂空区域。在掩膜版7背离牺牲层6的一侧施加光照,光线经过掩膜版7上的镂空区域后,可以照射到牺牲层6上。被光线照射的牺牲层6形成多个第一结构61,未被光线照射的牺牲层6形成第二结构62。可以认为,第二结构62位于多个第一结构61的间隙之间,第一结构61和第二结构62为互补分布。其中,箭头所示的光线可以为紫外光。As shown in FIG. 15b , the mask 7 has a hollow area. Light is applied to the side of the mask 7 away from the sacrificial layer 6. After the light passes through the hollow area on the mask 7, it can be irradiated onto the sacrificial layer 6. The sacrificial layer 6 irradiated by the light forms a plurality of first structures 61, and the sacrificial layer 6 not irradiated by the light forms a second structure 62. It can be considered that the second structure 62 is located between the gaps of the plurality of first structures 61, and the first structure 61 and the second structure 62 are complementary. Among them, the light indicated by the arrow can be ultraviolet light.
在具体实施时,掩膜版7的尺寸较大,而透镜组件10的尺寸较小,光线经过掩膜版7后可以通过光刻机的透镜8进行缩小而等比例地照射到牺牲层6上。In a specific implementation, the size of the mask 7 is relatively large, while the size of the lens assembly 10 is relatively small. After passing through the mask 7 , the light can be reduced by the lens 8 of the photolithography machine and irradiated onto the sacrificial layer 6 in equal proportion.
S3113:采用显影技术去除第二结构。S3113: removing the second structure using development technology.
具体地,可以将图15b所示的结构浸没在显影液中,利用显影液溶解第二结构62,以得到图13a所示的结构。Specifically, the structure shown in FIG. 15 b may be immersed in a developer, and the developer is used to dissolve the second structure 62 to obtain the structure shown in FIG. 13 a .
应当理解的是,当以第一结构61为参照刻蚀衬底1以形成微结构21时,第二结构62为多余结构而被显影去除。当以第二结构62为参照刻蚀衬底1以形成微结构21时,则可以将第一结构61显影去除。当然,去除第一结构61所选用的显影液与去除第二结构62所选用的显影液不同。It should be understood that when the substrate 1 is etched with the first structure 61 as a reference to form the microstructure 21, the second structure 62 is a redundant structure and is removed by development. When the substrate 1 is etched with the second structure 62 as a reference to form the microstructure 21, the first structure 61 can be removed by development. Of course, the developer selected to remove the first structure 61 is different from the developer selected to remove the second structure 62.
在另一种制备方法中,如图16所示,上述步骤S31中的在衬底的第一表面形成多个第一结构可以包括以下步骤:In another preparation method, as shown in FIG. 16 , forming a plurality of first structures on the first surface of the substrate in the above step S31 may include the following steps:
S3121:在衬底的第一表面涂覆光刻胶形成牺牲层。S3121: Coating photoresist on the first surface of the substrate to form a sacrificial layer.
具体地,可以采用旋涂的方式在衬底1的第一表面a1涂覆光刻胶形成牺牲层6,其结构可以参照图15a所示。需要注意的是,图15a所示的步骤S3111后得到的牺牲层6是光刻胶固化后的,而本步骤S3121中的牺牲层6是光刻胶未固化的状态。Specifically, a photoresist may be coated on the first surface a1 of the substrate 1 by spin coating to form a sacrificial layer 6, and its structure may be shown in FIG15a. It should be noted that the sacrificial layer 6 obtained after step S3111 shown in FIG15a is a photoresist cured, while the sacrificial layer 6 in step S3121 is a photoresist uncured state.
S3122:采用模板压印牺牲层并固化形成多个第一结构。 S3122: using a template to imprint a sacrificial layer and solidifying it to form a plurality of first structures.
具体地,如图17a所示,模板9包括基板91以及设置于基板91上的多个凸起92。将多个凸起92朝向牺牲层6。此时,牺牲层6未固化,比较柔软。将模板9具有凸起92的一侧压在牺牲层6上并对基板91施加压力,如图17b所示,多个凸起92挤压牺牲层6至多个凸起92与衬底1的第一表面a1接触,多个凸起92能够将牺牲层6挤压分隔。施加紫外光固化后,脱模移走模板9,牺牲层6能够形成图13a所示的多个第一结构61。Specifically, as shown in FIG17a, the template 9 includes a substrate 91 and a plurality of protrusions 92 disposed on the substrate 91. The plurality of protrusions 92 are directed toward the sacrificial layer 6. At this time, the sacrificial layer 6 is not cured and is relatively soft. The side of the template 9 with the protrusions 92 is pressed onto the sacrificial layer 6 and pressure is applied to the substrate 91. As shown in FIG17b, the plurality of protrusions 92 squeeze the sacrificial layer 6 until the plurality of protrusions 92 contact the first surface a1 of the substrate 1, and the plurality of protrusions 92 can squeeze and separate the sacrificial layer 6. After applying ultraviolet light curing, the template 9 is demoulded and removed, and the sacrificial layer 6 can form a plurality of first structures 61 as shown in FIG13a.
在一些透镜组件的制备方法中,如图18所示,在衬底的第二表面设置多个膜层之后,在衬底的第一表面形成多个沿第一表面排布的微结构之前,还包括以下步骤:In some methods for preparing lens assemblies, as shown in FIG. 18 , after a plurality of film layers are disposed on the second surface of the substrate and before a plurality of microstructures arranged along the first surface are formed on the first surface of the substrate, the following steps are further included:
S2’:对衬底的第一表面进行减薄处理。S2’: performing thinning processing on the first surface of the substrate.
对衬底1的第一表面a1进行减薄处理,可以对衬底1的第一表面a1的固有缺陷进行一定量的去除和修补,改善第一表面a1的质量,有利于在第一表面a1形成微结构21。By thinning the first surface a1 of the substrate 1 , a certain amount of inherent defects of the first surface a1 of the substrate 1 can be removed and repaired, thereby improving the quality of the first surface a1 and facilitating the formation of the microstructure 21 on the first surface a1 .

In such a lens module 100, there may be a distance between any two lens assemblies 10 along the thickness direction of the lens assembly 10. When light or electromagnetic waves pass through the lens module 100, they will sequentially pass through a plurality of lens assemblies 10. By designing the structural parameters of the plurality of lens assemblies 10, the aberration problem in the imaging process can be eliminated, and a better imaging effect can be achieved. It should be understood that the plurality of lens assemblies 10 can be assembled and fixed by an external bracket 20. In a specific application scenario, the bracket 20 may be a structure such as the housing of an electronic device.

Specifically, there are 6 lens assemblies 10, and the 6 lens assemblies 10 are arrayed in 3 rows and 2 columns. Figure 19b shows a top view of the lens module 100. Combined with the front view of the lens module 100 shown in Figure 19c, a plurality of lens assemblies 10 are sequentially spliced along the plane where the lens assemblies 10 are located, and the plurality of lens assemblies 10 are almost kept in the same plane. At this time, for the convenience of manufacturing, the substrate 1 of the plurality of lens assemblies 10 can have an integrated structure. Of course, the splicing form of the plurality of lens assemblies 10 is not limited, and can also be honeycomb splicing, rectangular splicing, etc. In this lens module 100, the plurality of lens assemblies 10 can be used in light field imaging occasions.

如图20a所示,外壳200可以为一具有开口的盒状结构,透镜单元400设置于外壳200的开口处。外界环境具有能够发出远红外范围内的辐射光线的人或物,该人或物发出的远红外辐射光线经过远距离传输后呈一组近似平行的光线进入透镜单元400。此处以发出红外光的物侧为人进行示例,人身上某一点P发出的红外光示例性有光线p1、光线p2、光线p3、光线p4、光线p5。这些光线经过长距离的输送后以近似平行的一组光线进入透镜单元400。该组光线以平行于透镜单元400的光轴Q的方式进入透镜单元400。图像传感器300设置于透镜单元400的聚焦面处,透镜单元400可以将该组光线聚焦到聚焦面上图像传感器300。图像传感器300用于捕获外部远红外范围内的辐射并生成热成像图像数据。 应当理解,在实际应用中,物侧发出的光线会有多组光线,该多组光线进入透镜单元400时会与光轴Q之间存在不同的角度,每组光线都能被透镜单元400聚焦到聚焦面上而被图像传感器300捕捉到。不同组光线在聚焦面上的聚焦点位置不同,能够在聚焦面上呈现不同位置的分布,从而被图像传感器300捕捉。As shown in FIG. 20a , the housing 200 may be a box-shaped structure with an opening, and the lens unit 400 is disposed at the opening of the housing 200. The external environment has a person or object that can emit radiation light in the far-infrared range, and the far-infrared radiation light emitted by the person or object enters the lens unit 400 as a group of approximately parallel light rays after long-distance transmission. Here, the object side that emits infrared light is taken as an example of a person, and the infrared light emitted from a certain point P on the person is exemplified by light rays p1, light rays p2, light rays p3, light rays p4, and light rays p5. After being transported over a long distance, these light rays enter the lens unit 400 as a group of approximately parallel light rays. The group of light rays enters the lens unit 400 in a manner parallel to the optical axis Q of the lens unit 400. The image sensor 300 is disposed at the focusing surface of the lens unit 400, and the lens unit 400 can focus the group of light rays onto the image sensor 300 on the focusing surface. The image sensor 300 is used to capture radiation in the external far-infrared range and generate thermal imaging image data. It should be understood that in actual applications, there are multiple groups of light emitted from the object side, and when the multiple groups of light enter the lens unit 400, there are different angles between them and the optical axis Q, and each group of light can be focused by the lens unit 400 onto the focusing plane and captured by the image sensor 300. Different groups of light have different focus points on the focusing plane, and can be distributed at different positions on the focusing plane, so as to be captured by the image sensor 300.
如图20b所示,外壳200可以为一具有开口的盒状结构,透镜单元400与图像传感器300均设置于外壳200内,且透镜单元400位于图像传感器300与外壳200的开口处,且外壳200的开口口径小于透镜单元400。可能地,外壳200的开口处可以设置一光阑500。示例性地,人身上某一点P发出的红外光示例性有光线p1、光线p2、光线p3、光线p4、光线p5、光线p6、光线p7,该组光线在经过外壳200的开口时,被外壳200的开口遮挡而允许一部分光线进入外壳200内。进入外壳200内的光线经过透镜单元400后聚焦到聚焦面上而被图像传感器300捕捉到。As shown in FIG. 20b , the housing 200 may be a box-shaped structure with an opening, and the lens unit 400 and the image sensor 300 are both disposed in the housing 200, and the lens unit 400 is located at the opening between the image sensor 300 and the housing 200, and the opening of the housing 200 has a smaller diameter than the lens unit 400. Possibly, an aperture 500 may be disposed at the opening of the housing 200. Exemplarily, the infrared light emitted from a point P on a person's body includes light rays p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6, and p7. When the group of light rays passes through the opening of the housing 200, they are blocked by the opening of the housing 200 and a portion of the light rays are allowed to enter the housing 200. The light rays entering the housing 200 are focused on the focusing plane after passing through the lens unit 400 and are captured by the image sensor 300.
其中,光阑500与透镜单元400之间可以存在间隙,实现对视场角的更好控制,进一步减少杂光。There may be a gap between the aperture 500 and the lens unit 400 to achieve better control of the field of view angle and further reduce stray light.
示例性地,如图21a所示,当透镜单元400为透镜组件10,可以将透镜组件10安装在外壳200内,透镜组件10位于外壳200的开口与图像传感器300之间。具体地,透镜组件10的膜层结构3可以朝向物侧,透镜组件10的成像结构2可以朝向图像传感器300。当然,透镜组件10的具体朝向仅做示例。Exemplarily, as shown in FIG21a, when the lens unit 400 is a lens assembly 10, the lens assembly 10 can be installed in the housing 200, and the lens assembly 10 is located between the opening of the housing 200 and the image sensor 300. Specifically, the film layer structure 3 of the lens assembly 10 can be oriented toward the object side, and the imaging structure 2 of the lens assembly 10 can be oriented toward the image sensor 300. Of course, the specific orientation of the lens assembly 10 is only an example.
示例性地,如图21b所示,当透镜单元400为透镜模组100,以三个透镜组件10沿厚度方向依次排布组成的透镜模组100为例,三个透镜组件10分别为第一透镜组件10a、第二透镜组件10b以及第三透镜组件10c。将该透镜模组100安装到外壳200时,可以将第一透镜组件10a安装在外壳200的开口处,第二透镜组件10b和第三透镜组件10c依次安装在第一透镜组件10a与图像传感器300之间。其中,第三透镜组件10c与外壳200的内径相适配并固定于外壳200的内壁。第二透镜组件10b则通过外壳200内的安装座201固定安装。Exemplarily, as shown in FIG. 21b, when the lens unit 400 is a lens module 100, taking the lens module 100 composed of three lens assemblies 10 arranged in sequence along the thickness direction as an example, the three lens assemblies 10 are respectively a first lens assembly 10a, a second lens assembly 10b and a third lens assembly 10c. When the lens module 100 is mounted to the housing 200, the first lens assembly 10a can be mounted at the opening of the housing 200, and the second lens assembly 10b and the third lens assembly 10c can be mounted in sequence between the first lens assembly 10a and the image sensor 300. Among them, the third lens assembly 10c is adapted to the inner diameter of the housing 200 and fixed to the inner wall of the housing 200. The second lens assembly 10b is fixedly mounted by the mounting seat 201 in the housing 200.
在另一些实施例中,如图21c所示,当透镜单元400包括第一透镜组件10a、第二透镜组件10b以及第三透镜组件10s。其中,第一透镜组件10a和第二透镜组件10b为上述实施例中提供的透镜组件10,具有成像结构2和滤波结构3。第三透镜组件10s为普通的透镜组件。也就是说,可以将本申请实施例所提供的透镜组件10与普通的透镜组件结合在一起使用,达到所需要的成像效果。这样的设计,能够降低成本和结构体积,提高设计自由度。应当理解,图21c中的普通透镜组件设置于两个透镜组件10仅为示例性说明,本申请实施例并不对透镜组件10与普通透镜组件结合的数量与位置关系进行限定。In other embodiments, as shown in FIG. 21c, when the lens unit 400 includes a first lens assembly 10a, a second lens assembly 10b and a third lens assembly 10s. Among them, the first lens assembly 10a and the second lens assembly 10b are the lens assemblies 10 provided in the above-mentioned embodiments, and have an imaging structure 2 and a filtering structure 3. The third lens assembly 10s is an ordinary lens assembly. In other words, the lens assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used in combination with an ordinary lens assembly to achieve the required imaging effect. Such a design can reduce costs and structural volume and improve design freedom. It should be understood that the ordinary lens assembly in FIG. 21c is arranged in two lens assemblies 10 for exemplary purposes only, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit the number and position relationship of the lens assembly 10 combined with the ordinary lens assembly.
综上,本申请实施例提供的透镜组件10将超构表面与多膜层技术结合,实现平面透镜的同时实现轻薄化,在应用中,依据不同的应用场景,选择不同的膜层结构3,可以提升透镜组件10的带宽性能,拓宽透镜组件10的应用范围。将该透镜组件10单独使用或组合成透镜模组100使用时,能够提高成像性能,取得更好的成像效果。具有该透镜组件10的成像设备也更容易实现小型化,符合当下终端设备的发展需求。In summary, the lens assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application combines the metasurface with the multi-film layer technology to realize a planar lens while achieving lightness and thinness. In application, according to different application scenarios, different film layer structures 3 are selected to improve the bandwidth performance of the lens assembly 10 and broaden the application scope of the lens assembly 10. When the lens assembly 10 is used alone or combined into a lens module 100, the imaging performance can be improved and a better imaging effect can be achieved. The imaging device with the lens assembly 10 is also easier to achieve miniaturization, which meets the development needs of current terminal devices.
