  • Patent number: 11961701
    Abstract: When adjusting optical axes of a multi-beam charged particle beam device, because parameters of optical systems are inter-dependent, the time required to adjust the parameters increases. Thus, the present invention provides a charged particle beam device provided with an optical parameter setting unit for setting parameters of optical systems for emitting a plurality of primary charged particle beams to a sample, detectors for individually detecting a plurality of secondary charged particle beams discharged from the sample, a plurality of memories for storing signals detected by the detectors and converted into digital pixels in the form of images, evaluation value derivation units for deriving evaluation values of the primary charged particle beams from the images, and a GUI capable of displaying the images and receiving an input from a user, wherein the GUI displays the images and evaluation results based on the evaluation values and changes various optical parameters in real-time.
