Abstract

To provide a charged particle beam device which enables observation and evaluation of the surface and the inside of a sample with low damage to the sample, the charged particle beam device has: a charged particle beam source 2; a sample table 9 in which the sample 210 is placed; a charged particle beam optical system which pulsates a charged particle beam 100 and irradiates the charged particle beam to the sample at an acceleration voltage within a range of 0 kV to 5 kV; a split distance selector 125 for selecting a measurement object of the sample; and a split distance setting unit 124 for setting a split distance in one line scanning of the charged particle beam on the sample.
