摘要:
(1) part or all of the number, coordinates and size/shape and imaging sequence of imaging points each for observation, the imaging position change method and imaging conditions can be calculated automatically from CAD data, (2) a combination of input information and output information for imaging recipe creation can be set arbitrarily, and (3) decision is made of imaging or processing at an arbitrary imaging point as to whether to be successful/unsuccessful and in case a failure is determined, a relief process can be conducted in which the imaging point or imaging sequence is changed.

This invention relates to a SEM system constructed to create imaging recipes or/and measuring recipes automatically and at high speed, and improve inspection efficiency and an automation ratio, and to a method using the SEM system; a method for creation of imaging recipes and measuring recipes in the SEM system is adapted to include, in a recipe arithmetic unit, the steps of evaluating a tolerance for an imaging position error level at an evaluation point, evaluating a value predicted of the imaging position error level at the evaluation point when any region on circuit pattern design data is defined as an addressing point, and determining an imaging recipe and a measuring recipe on the basis of a relationship between the tolerance for the imaging position error level at the evaluation point and the predicted value of the imaging position error level at the evaluation point.

In the spectrometer, heavy loads are arranged centrally inside a case having a height smaller than a width, and having a depth smaller than the height. The heavy loads include a vacuum chamber, a vacuum pump which evacuates the vacuum chamber, a sample introduction unit which introduces a sample to be measured and evaporates the sample, an ionization unit which ionizes the evaporated sample and provides it to the vacuum chamber, and an ion detection unit which is connected to the vacuum chamber. Circuit board storage units which store a plurality of circuit boards with a predetermined space therebetween are formed on both sides along a width direction of the case.

An image forming method and a charged particle beam apparatus suitable for suppressing the inclination of charging when scanning a two-dimensional area with a charged particle beam. A third scanning line located between a first scanning line and a second scanning line is scanned. After the first, second and third scanning lines have been scanned, a plurality of scanning lines are scanned between the first and third scanning lines and between the second and third scanning lines.

An object of the present invention is to provide a scanning electron microscope for reducing a process concerning inspection positioning or an input operation, thereby functioning with high precision at high speed. To accomplish the above object, the present invention provides a scanning electron microscope having a function for identifying a desired position on the basis of a pattern registered beforehand, which includes a means for setting information concerning the pattern kind, the interval between a plurality of parts constituting the pattern, and the size of parts constituting the pattern and a means for forming a pattern image composed of a plurality of parts on the basis of the information obtained by the concerned means.
摘要:
A method of measuring pattern dimensions includes evaluating a relationship between cross-sectional shapes of a pattern and measurement errors of a pattern in a specified image processing technique, and conducting an actual measurement in which dimension measurement of an evaluation objective pattern from image signals of a microscope is carried out, and revising errors of the dimension measurement of the evaluation objective pattern based on the relationship between the cross-sectional shapes of a pattern and the measurement errors of a pattern previously evaluated.
