    摘要: Provided is a technique capable of removing a damaged layer of a sample piece generated through an FIB fabrication sufficiently but at the minimum. A charged particle beam device includes a first element ion beam optical system unit (110) which performs a first FIB fabrication to form a sample piece from a sample, a second element ion beam optical system unit (120) which performs a second FIB fabrication to remove a damaged layer formed on a surface of the sample piece, and a first element detector (140) which detects an first element existing in the damaged layer. A termination of the second FIB fabrication is determined if an amount of the first element existing in the damaged layer becomes smaller than a predefined threshold value.

    摘要: An ion beam processing apparatus includes an ion beam irradiation optical system that irradiate a rectangular ion beam to a sample held on a first sample stage, an electron beam irradiation optical system that irradiates an electron beam to the sample, and a second sample stage on which a test piece, extracted from the sample by a probe, is mounted. An angle of irradiation of the ion beam can be tilted by rotating the second sample stage about a tilting axis. A controller controls the width of skew of an intensity profile representing an edge of the rectangular ion beam in a direction perpendicular to a first direction in which the tilting axis of the second sample stage is projected on the second sample stage surface so that the width will be smaller than the width of skew of an intensity profile representing another edge of the ion beam in a direction parallel to the first direction.

    摘要: A charged particle beam apparatus of the present invention comprises a transmission electron detector (113; 206) having a detection portion divided into multiple regions (201 to 205; 301 to 305), wherein a film thickness of a sample is calculated by detecting a transmission electron beam (112) generated from the sample when the sample is irradiated with an electron beam (109), as a signal of each of the regions in accordance with scattering angles of the transmission electron beam, and thereafter calculating the intensities of the individual signals. According to the above, there is provided a charged particle beam apparatus capable of performing accurate film thickness monitoring while suppressing an error due to an external condition and also capable of processing a thin film sample into a sample having an accurate film thickness, which makes it possible to improve the accuracy in structure observations, element analyses and the like.
