摘要: Provided is a charged particle beam device for which deterioration in throughput in the event of abnormality of multiple beams can be prevented. The charged particle beam device includes: a stage 11 on which a sample is mounted; a charged particle optical system configured to irradiate the sample with multiple beams including multiple primary beams; a detector 15 configured to detect secondary beams generated by interactions between the primary beams and the sample and output detection signals; and a control unit 17 configured to control the stage and the charged particle optical system to generate image data based on the detection signals from the detector obtained by scanning the sample with the multiple beams using a first scanning method. The control unit changes, when the abnormality of the multiple beams is detected based on the image data, the multiple beams to scan the sample using a second scanning method, and a scanning width of the multiple beams for scanning the sample is greater in the second scanning method than in the first scanning method.

摘要: A charged particle beam device is provided which minimizes the beam irradiation amount while maintaining a high measurement success rate. The charged particle beam device includes a control device for controlling a scan deflector on the basis of selection of a predetermined number n of frames, wherein the control device controls the scan deflector so that a charged particle beam is selectively scanned on a portion on a sample corresponding to a pixel satisfying a predetermined condition or a region including the portion on the sample from an image obtained by scanning the charged particle beam for a number m of frames (m≥1), the number m of frames being smaller than the number n of frames.

摘要: The invention provides a charged particle beam device capable of reducing a positional shift between secondary beams generated in a beam separator. The charged particle beam device includes a charged particle beam source configured to irradiate a sample with a plurality of primary beams, a plurality of detectors configured to detect secondary beams emitted from the sample in correspondence to the primary beams, and a beam separator configured to deflect the secondary beams in a direction different from that of the primary beams. The charged particle beam device further includes a deflector provided between the beam separator and the detector to correct a positional shift between the secondary beams generated in the beam separator.
