Abstract: The present invention relates to a charged particle beam apparatus enabling a selection of a charged particle beam in a specified energy range by symmetrically arranging cylindrical electrostatic lenses deflecting a path of the charged particle beam and disposing an energy selection aperture between the cylindrical electrostatic lenses. Since an integral structure in which a central electrode and a plurality of electrodes that are arranged at a front portion and a rear portion in relation to the central electrode of a monochromator are fixed to each other through insulator, is applied, a mechanism for adjusting an offset with respect to an optical axis is simplified as compared to the case of separately providing the lenses at the front portion and the rear portion, respectively, and a secondary aberration is canceled in an exit plane due to symmetry of an optical system.
