Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An 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 from an object side to an image side in order along an optical axis. The first lens element to the sixth lens element each include an object-side surface facing the object side and allowing imaging rays to pass through and an image-side surface facing the image side and allowing the imaging rays to pass through. The optical imaging lens satisfies: EFL/(T1+T3)≥2.300. EFL is an effective focal length of the optical imaging lens. T1 is a thickness of the first lens element along the optical axis. T3 is a thickness of the third lens element along the optical axis.
