摘要: Analog image data a SEM are converted into digital data, and are processed by a spatial filtering processing, histogram processing, threshold value setting, three-valued image data processing, noise reduction and the like. Area of a pattern in the three-valued image data is calculated by a labelling and calculation processing, and a pattern is sequentially detected by comparing the area of the pattern with a reference area value. The comparison and detection of the same or similar patterns repeated in the SEM image are performed by using the area of the pattern, and are not performed by a shape of the pattern, thereby resulting a precise detection at high speed by using a microprocessor. Since it is possible to perform a pattern recognition from the area value even though the pattern does not have a characteristic, it is possible to precisely detect and recognize a pattern image in high speed.

摘要: Line profile data obtained by scanning a circuit pattern with an electron beam is smoothing-differential so as to obtain a pair of approximate edge positions of the circuit pattern. Positions apart from the pair of approximate edge positions by a predetermined number of picture elements are referred to as start point and end point of automatic measuring algorithm. The automatic measuring algorithm is performed for the line profile data between the start point and the end point so as to detect precise edge positions of the circuit pattern.
