  • Publication number: 20200292298
    Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to propose a height measuring device which performs height measurement with high accuracy at each height with a relatively simple configuration even when the sample surface height changes greatly. A height measuring device which includes a projection optical system configured to project a light ray onto an object to be measured and a detection optical system including a detection element configured to detect a reflected light ray from the object to be measured, where the projection optical system includes a light splitting element (103) which splits a trajectory of the light ray with which the object to be measured is irradiated into a plurality of parts, and thus it is possible to project a light ray to a predetermined position even when the object to be measured is located at a plurality of heights, is proposed.
