ABSTRACT:
According to the invention, to achieve the above objective, there is provided a charged particle beam apparatus that creates a first image by irradiating a charged particle beam on a sample to scan a first pattern of the sample, controls on the basis of the first image the focus of the charged particle beam and the brightness and/or contrast of the image, and irradiates the charged particle beam to correctly scan a second pattern different from the first pattern by using the control conditions used to control the focus of the charged particle beam and the brightness and/or contrast of the image.
