ABSTRACT:
A sample is supported flat in high precision by a sample chuck, and is easily mounted and dismounted.
A wafer lifting mechanism is arranged in a position separated from a rotating system of a rotatable wafer chuck, and a wafer is lifted from a supporting surface by moving the wafer lifting mechanism upward to let pins penetrate through through holes of the wafer chuck under a state that the wafer chuck is stopped at a sample mounting-and-dismounting position.
