    Abstract: A voltage contrast defect analysis method including the following steps is provided. A voltage contrast defect detection is performed on a die to be tested by using an electron beam inspection machine to find out a defect address of a voltage contrast defect. A first scanning electron microscope image at the defect address of the die to be tested is obtained by using a scanning electron microscope. A first critical dimension of the first scanning electron microscope image at the defect address of the die to be tested is measured. The first critical dimension on the die to be tested is compared with a corresponding second critical dimension on a reference die where no voltage contrast defect occurs at the defect address to determine whether the first critical dimension and the second critical dimension are the same.
