Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide an electron microscope capable of obtaining a sufficient energy resolution without forming a long drift space and capable of attaining high energy discrimination detection performance with approximately the same device size as in the related art. The electron microscope according to the invention includes a pulsed electron emission mechanism configured to emit an electron beam in a pulsed manner, and discriminates energy of signal electrons by discriminating the signal electrons, which are emitted from a sample by irradiating the sample with the electron beam, according to a time of flight (see FIG. 2).

Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a charged particle beam device capable of specifying an irradiation position of light on a sample when there is no mechanism for forming an image of backscattered electrons. The charged particle beam device according to the invention determines whether an irradiation position of a primary charged particle beam and an irradiation position of light match based on a difference between a first observation image acquired when the sample is irradiated with only the primary charged particle beam and a second observation image acquired when sample is irradiated with the light in addition to the primary charged particle beam. It is determined whether the irradiation position of the primary charged particle beam and the irradiation position of the light match using the first observation image and a measurement result by a light amount measuring device.

Abstract: The purpose of the present disclosure is to propose a charged particle beam device capable of allowing specifying of a distance between irradiation points for a pulsed beam and a time between irradiation points.
