    摘要: There is provided a charged particle device for a charged particle inspection apparatus for projecting an array of sub-beams towards a sample, the charged particle device comprising: a charged particle optical element and a detector. The charged particle optical element has an up-beam surface having a plurality of openings to generate an array of sub-beams from a charged particle beam. In the charged particle optical element are defined: sub-beam apertures and monitoring apertures. The sub-beam aperture extend through the charged particle element for paths of the array of sub-beams towards a sample. The monitoring aperture extends through the charged particle element. The detector is in the monitoring aperture. At least part of the detector is down-beam of the up-beam surface. The detector measures a parameter of a portion of the charged particle beam incident on the detector.
