Abstract
Fingerprint recognition is a widely used biometric authentication method in LED-backlight smartphones. Due to the increasing demand for full-screen smartphones, under-display fingerprint recognition has become a popular trend. In this paper, we propose a design of an optical fingerprint recognition lens for under-display smartphones. The lens is composed of three plastic aspheric lenses, with an effective focal length (EFL) of 0.61 mm, a field of view (FOV) of 126°, and a total track length (TTL) of 2.54 mm. The image quality of the lens meets the target specifications, with MTF over 80% in the center FOV and over 70% in the 0.7 FOV, distortion less than 8% at an image height of 1.0 mm, and relative illumination (RI) greater than 25% at an image height of 1.0 mm. The lens also meets the current industry standards in terms of tolerance sensitivity and Monte Carlo analysis.
