Patent attributes
Disclosed is an imaging lens capable of improving weatherability, reducing performance degradation, and obtaining an optical performance excellent across a wide wavelength region from the visible wavelength region to the near-infrared wavelength region. An imaging lens for forming an image of visible and near-infrared light includes, in order from the object side: a front group that has a positive power; an aperture stop; and a rear group that has a negative power. In the imaging lens, the rear group includes a negative meniscus lens that is disposed closer to the object side and has a surface convex toward the object side, and a biconvex lens that is disposed closer to the image side. In addition, all the lenses constituting the imaging lens are single lenses.
