Abstract
A defect inspection device includes a sample support member, a negative voltage, an imaging element, an ultraviolet light source, a movement stage, and a control device. The control device controls the movement stage such that a portion of a linear part included in the image or a location on an extensional line of the linear part is positioned at a specific location in an irradiated region of the electron beam. The control device also repeats the control of the movement stage until an end of the linear part is positioned within the irradiated region of the electron beam.
