ABSTRACT:
In order to easily evaluate defects of the silicon wafer affecting the characteristic of a device, the present invention provides a defect inspection apparatus for detecting defects existing on a surface of a sample and/or inside the sample, which comprises a display apparatus for displaying a distribution of the defects on a graph having coordinate axes of distance from a central position of the sample and the depth where the defect exists based on the depth information and the positional information obtained by a detecting means.
