摘要: The invention provides a charged particle beam apparatus capable of preventing image errors in a display image and capturing a clear display image. A display image displayed on a display unit has a rectangular shape having sides that are substantially parallel to coordinate axes of a rectangular coordinate system determined by wafer alignment. A charged particle beam is radiated onto an area including a display image in a direction that is not parallel to the coordinate axes of the reference rectangular coordinate system to scan the area. Then, among image information obtained by scanning, only information of a position within the display image is displayed on the image display unit. In this way, a clear display image without brightness variation is obtained.

摘要: This charged particle beam microscope is characterized by being provided with selection means (153, 155) for a measurement processing method for detected particles (118) and by this means selecting a different measurement processing method for a scanning region with a large number of secondary electrons (115) emitted from a sample (114) and for a region with a small number of secondary electrons. Thus, in sample scanning using a charged particle beam microscope, an image in which the contrast of bottom holes and channel bottoms with few emitted secondary electrons is emphasized and images that emphasize shadow contrast can be acquired in a short period of time.

摘要: The electron beam device includes a source of electrons and an objective deflector. The electron beam device obtains an image on the basis of signals of secondary electrons, etc. which are emitted from a material by an electron beam being projected. The electron beam device further includes a bias chromatic aberration correction element, further including an electromagnetic deflector which is positioned closer to the source of the electrons than the objective deflector, and an electrostatic deflector which has a narrower interior diameter than the electromagnetic deflector, is positioned within the electromagnetic deflector such that the height-wise position from the material overlaps with the electromagnetic deflector, and is capable of applying an offset voltage. It is thus possible to provide an electron beam device with which it is possible to alleviate geometric aberration (parasitic aberration) caused by deflection and implement deflection over a wide field of view with high resolution.
