Far-infrared camera lens, lens unit, and imaging apparatus
First Claim
1. A far-infrared camera lens comprising:
- a first lens that is formed of ZnS and has a middle portion that is a meniscus, which is convex on an object side and concave on an image surface side, and a peripheral portion, which is concave on the object side and convex on the image surface side;
a second lens that is formed of ZnS and has a middle portion that is a meniscus, which is concave on an object side and has positive refractive power, and a peripheral portion, which is convex on the object side; and
a third lens that is formed of ZnS, is provided adjacent to the second lens, and has a middle portion which has a convex meniscus shape on an object side and a peripheral portion which is concave on the object side, whereina diffraction surface is formed in either lens surface, anda viewing angle is 50°
to 70°

Abstract
Three lenses formed of ZnS are used in combination. A first lens is a meniscus lens having a middle portion which is convex on an object side. A second lens has a middle portion that is a meniscus, which is concave on an object side and has positive refractive power, and a peripheral portion, which is convex on the object side. The first and second lenses have positive refractive power in combination. A third lens is provided adjacent to the second lens with a distance therebetween 1 mm or less and has a middle portion, which is a convex meniscus on an object side, and a peripheral portion which is concave on the object side. A diffraction surface is formed in either surface of the lens.
