    摘要: A workpiece size measurement method suitable for length measurement of multilayered circuit elements with increased complexities is disclosed. This method employs a technique for changing measurement conditions in a way pursuant to either an image of workpiece or the situation of a target semiconductor circuit element to be measured when measuring pattern sizes on the workpiece image using design data of the semiconductor circuit element. With such an arrangement, adequate measurement conditions are selectable in accordance with the state of workpiece image and/or the state of a circuit element formed on the workpiece, thereby making it possible to improve the measurement efficiency. A workpiece size measurement apparatus using the technique is also disclosed.

    摘要: A pattern matching method which is capable of selecting a suitable measurement object pattern, even on a sample containing a periodic structure, and a computer program for making a computer execute the pattern matching. In a pattern matching method which executes matching between the design data-based first image of an object sample, and a second image, whether or not a periodic structure is included in a region to execute the matching is determined, so as to select a pattern, based on distance between an original point which is set in said image, and the pattern configuring said periodic structure, in the case where the periodic structure is included in said region, and to select a pattern based on coincidence of the pattern in said image, in the case where the periodic structure is not included in said region, and a computer program product.
