    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To observe the phenomenon generated within a device by directly applying voltage at a specific position within an LSI with design dimensions of about 0.1 μm. SOLUTION: This method comprises, in addition to a process for processing arbitrary area of an object sample into a fine sample piece by using charged particle beam and extracting the sample piece, a process for attaching fine conductors 30a and 30b to the extracted fine sample piece 72, and a process for applying voltage to the attached fine conductors.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify work from a sample preparation to an observation, to prepare a sample in one device, and to easily transfer the prepared sample to an analyzer. SOLUTION: This sample preparing device is constituted of at least an irradiation optical system for emitting an ion beam, a secondary particle detecting means for detecting a secondary particle generated from a sample piece by irradiation of the ion beam, a side entry type of sample stage for mounting a sample holder for mounting the sample piece to fix the analytical sample, and a transfer means for transferring the picked-up sample provided by separating one portion of the sample piece to the sample holder. The work from the sample preparation up to the observation is simplified thereby, the sample is prepared in one device, the prepared sample is easy to be transferred to the analyzer, and the possibility of sample damage is reduced thereby.
