ABSTRACT:
An aberration adjusting method of a charged particle beam optical system. The method includes an aberration measuring step of measuring N aberrations of the charged particle beam optical system, an aberration sensitivity acquiring step of changing M control amounts to control optical elements included in the charged particle beam optical system, obtaining variations of the N aberrations by executing the aberration measuring step, and obtaining aberration sensitivities of the M control amounts. The method further includes a control amount deciding step of deciding the M control amounts on the basis of the N aberrations and the aberration sensitivities of the M control amounts to set the N aberrations to target aberrations. The aberration is a displacement of each image height of charged particles beams. The control amount is an amount for controlling a position of the charged particle beams, and M<N, in which M and N are positive integers.
