ABSTRACT:
An object of the present invention is to provide a standard specimen for a charged particle beam enabling highly precise measurement of sub-micron to several 10 μm in size on an image and an apparatus using the standard specimen. In order to attain the above described object, the present invention provides a standard specimen for a charged particle beam including two different specimens for magnification or measurement calibration and a charged particle beam apparatus using the specimens.
