  • Publication number: 20240069416
    Abstract: A light path folding element includes a first surface, a second surface, a first reflecting surface and a second reflecting surface. A light travels from the first surface into the light path folding element. The second surface is disposed relative to the first surface along a first direction and is parallel to the first surface, and the first direction is perpendicular to the first surface. The first reflecting surface connects the first surface and the second surface, an acute angle is formed between the first reflecting surface and the first surface, and the light forms an internal reflection via the first reflecting surface. The light forms another internal reflection via the second reflecting surface. The light path folding element further includes a light blocking structure, which extends from at least one of the first surface and the second surface into the light path folding element.

  • Publication number: 20230247273
    Abstract: An imaging lens includes a light blocking sheet that includes an inner ring surface, a plurality of tapered light blocking structures, and a nanostructure layer. The inner ring surface surrounds an optical axis and defines a light passage opening. The tapered light blocking structures are disposed on the inner ring surface, and each tapered light blocking structure protrudes from the inner ring surface and tapers off towards the optical axis. The tapered light blocking structures are periodically arranged to surround the optical axis. The contour of each tapered light blocking structure has a curved part in a view along the optical axis. The curved part forms a curved surface on the inner ring surface. The nanostructure layer is disposed on the curved surface and has a plurality of ridge-like protrusions that extend non-directionally, and the average structure height of the nanostructure layer ranges from 98 nanometers to 350 nanometers.
