Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to eliminate the effort in placement and extraction of samples in observations using transmitted charged particles. A charged particle beam device (601) is characterized by having: a charged particle optical lens tube that irradiates a sample (6) with a primary charged particle beam; a sample stage on which a light emitting member (500) that emits light because of charged particles that have come by transmission internally in the sample (6) or scattering therefrom or a sample platform (600) having the light emitting member (500) is attachably and detachably disposed; and a detector (503) that detects the light emitted by the light emitting member.
