  • Patent number: 11928801
    Abstract: With respect to a charged particle beam apparatus, provided is a technology capable of preventing a deterioration in image quality of a captured image. The charged particle beam apparatus includes an imaging device that irradiates a sample with a charged particle beam and forms an image from information of the sample and a computer. The computer stores each of images (scanned images) obtained by scanning the same area multiple times, classifies each of images into an image including a deteriorated image and an image not including the deteriorated image, and stores a target image obtained by performing image integration from the image not including the deteriorated image. The charged particle beam apparatus includes a database that stores data such as information obtained from an imaging device including the scanned image, classification results, and the target image.
