ABSTRACT:
A sample measurement method is a sample measurement method by an electron microscope and includes the film formation step of forming a sample on a projection on the major surface of a substrate, the electron beam irradiation step of irradiating the sample with an electron beam from a side of the projection, and the measurement step of detecting an electron beam which is generated or reflected from or has passed through the sample irradiated with the electron beam. Since the sample is formed on the projection on the major surface of the substrate, the sample on the projection can be formed as a thin film. For this reason, sample measurement can be executed only by irradiating the sample from a side of the projection.
