Abstract

A first electron biprism is disposed in a condenser optical system and an observation region of a specimen is irradiated simultaneously with two electron beams of different angles. The two electron beams that have simultaneously transmitted the specimen are spatially separated and focused with a second electron biprism disposed in an imaging optical system and two electron microscopic images of different irradiation angles are obtained. The two picture images are obtained by a detecting unit. Based on the two picture images, a stereoscopic image or two images having different kinds of information of the specimen is/are produced and displayed on a display device.
