ABSTRACT:
A charged particle beam apparatus in accordance with one preferred form of this invention includes an irradiation unit for irradiating a charged particle beam, an instrumentation unit which performs instrumentation of a reflection signal from a mark as obtained by scanning the mark while irradiating the charged particle beam onto the mark, and a measurement unit which uses an approximation equation defined by use of a prespecified mark shape function and an error function to perform the fitting of a waveform obtained based on the reflection signal and which measures beam resolution which becomes a parameter of the error function from the waveform obtained based on the reflection signal.
