Abstract

A charged particle beam lithography system has a high-throughput and inexpensive system configuration. The system configuration is constituted by a plurality of charged particle optical systems each adapted to focus and deflect a beam of charged particles and irradiate the beam onto a specimen so that the beam draws a desired pattern on the specimen, a plurality of deflection distortion correcting circuits each associated with each of the charged particle optical systems for correcting a deflection distortion of each charged particle optical system, and a common pattern data control circuit for supplying data of a pattern to be drawn to each of the plurality of deflection distortion correcting circuits.
