Abstract: A charged particle beam device includes: a stage 124 on which a sample 108 is to be placed; a charged particle optical system including a charged particle source 113 and an objective lens 121 that focuses a charged particle beam from the charged particle source onto the sample; and a detector 123 disposed between the objective lens and the stage and configured to detect electrons 109 emitted by an interaction between the charged particle beam and the sample. The stage, the charged particle optical system, and the detector are housed in a vacuum housing 112, and the detector includes a scintillator 107, a solid-state photomultiplier tube 104, and a light guide 106 provided between the scintillator and the solid-state photomultiplier tube, and an area of a light receiving surface of the scintillator is larger than an area of a light receiving surface of the solid-state photomultiplier tube.

Abstract: Provided is a sample observation apparatus including: a microscope that irradiates a sample with a probe, detects a signal from the sample, and outputs a detection signal; and a system that generates an image based on the detection signal received from the microscope. The system receives designation executed by a user for one or more trained models in a model database storing data of a plurality of trained models for estimating a high-quality image based on a low-quality image. The system generates and displays a current low-quality observation image based on the detection signal, and estimates and displays a high-quality image based on the current low-quality observation image according to each of the one or more trained models.
