Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a charged particle beam device which suppresses sample deformation caused by placing a sample on a suctioning surface of an electrostatic chuck mechanism, the sample having a temperature different from the suctioning surface. Proposed is a charged particle beam device which has an electrostatic chuck mechanism, the charged particle beam device being provided with: a stage (200) which moves a sample, which is to be irradiated with a charged particle beam, relative to an irradiation position of the charged particle beam; an insulating body (203) which is disposed on the stage and constitutes a dielectric layer of the electrostatic chuck; a first support member (402) which supports the insulating body on the stage; a ring-shaped electrode (400) which encloses the surroundings of the sample and is installed on the insulating body in a contactless manner, and to which a predetermined voltage is applied; and a second support member (405) which supports the ring-shaped electrode.
