A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11927828B2) discloses an optical imaging system comprising seven lenses arranged in a specific configuration. The system includes lenses with positive and negative refractive powers, varying radii of curvature, and specific Abbe numbers to achieve optimal imaging performance. The arrangement of the lenses from the object side towards the imaging plane is crucial, with precise distances between each lens along the optical axis ensuring the desired optical properties.

Furthermore, the patent claims specify additional features such as the concavity of the image-side surface of the first lens, the positive refractive power of the fifth lens, and specific focal length ranges for the second and sixth lenses. The Abbe number of the seventh lens, along with the radii of curvature of the lenses, plays a significant role in determining the overall performance of the optical imaging system. These detailed specifications aim to enhance the imaging quality, reduce aberrations, and improve the overall efficiency of the system, making it a valuable innovation in the field of optical technology.
