    摘要: Provided is a scanning electron microscope provided with an energy selection and detection function for a SE1 generated on a sample while suppressing the detection amount of a SE3 excited due to a BSE in the scanning electron microscope that does not apply a deceleration method. Provided are: an electron optical system that includes an electron source 21 generating an irradiation electron beam and an objective lens 12 focusing the irradiation electron beam on a sample; a detector 13 that is arranged outside an optical axis of the electron optical system and detects a signal electron generated when the sample is irradiated with the irradiation electron beam; a deflection electrode that forms a deflection field 26 to guide the signal electron to the detector; a disk-shaped electrode 23 that is arranged to be closer to the electron source than the deflection field and has an opening through which the irradiation electron beam passes; and a control electrode arranged along the optical axis to be closer to the sample than the deflection field. The sample and the objective lens are set to a reference potential. A potential lower than the reference potential is applied to the disk-shaped electrode, and a potential higher than the reference potential is applied to the control electrode.

    摘要: A charged particle beam device includes: a charged particle source that emits a charged particle beam; a boosting electrode disposed between the charged particle source and a sample to form a path of the charged particle beam and to accelerate and decelerate the charged particle beam; a first pole piece that covers the boosting electrode; a second pole piece that covers the first pole piece; a first lens coil disposed outside the first pole piece and inside the second pole piece to form a first lens; a second lens coil disposed outside the second pole piece to form a second lens; and a control electrode formed between a distal end portion of the first pole piece and a distal end portion of the second pole piece to control an electric field formed between the sample and the distal end portion of the second pole piece.

    摘要: This scanning electron microscope is provided with: a deceleration means that decelerates an electron beam (5) when the electron beam is passing through an objective lens; and a first detector (8) and a second detector (7) that are disposed between the electron beam and the objective lens and have a sensitive surface having an axially symmetric shape with respect to the optical axis of the electron beam. The first detector is provided at the sample side with respect to the second detector, and exclusively detects the signal electrons having a high energy that have passed through a retarding field energy filter (9A). When the distance between the tip (13) at the sample side of the objective lens and the sensitive surface of the first detector is L1 and the distance between the tip at the sample side of the objective lens and the sensitive surface of the second detector is L2, then L1/L2≦5/9. As a result, when performing low-acceleration observation using a deceleration method by means of a scanning electron microscope, it is possible to detect signal electrons without the effect of shading in a magnification range of a low magnification on the order of hundreds of times to a high magnification of at least 100,000×. Also, it is possible to highly efficiently detect backscattered electrons, of which the amount generated is less than that of secondary electrons.

    摘要: The objective of the present invention is to simply perform image observation through transmitted charged particles. A sample irradiated by a charged particle beam is disposed directly or via a predetermined member on a light-emitting element (23) whereinto charged particles that have traversed or scattered inside the sample enter, causing a light to be emitted therefrom, which is collected and detected efficiently using a light transmission means (203) to generate a transmission charged particle image of the sample.
