Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Present embodiments provide for an optical imaging lens. The optical imaging lens includes a first lens element, a second lens element, a third lens element, a fourth lens element, a fifth lens element and a sixth lens element positioned sequentially from an object side to an image side. Through arrangement of convex or concave surfaces of the six lens elements, the length of the optical imaging lens may be shortened while providing better optical characteristics and imaging quality.
