Provided is a method of evaluating carbon concentration of a silicon sample, which includes: forming an oxide film on at least a part of a surface of an evaluation-target silicon sample; irradiating a particle beam onto a surface of the oxide film; irradiating excitation light having energy larger than a band gap of silicon onto the surface of the oxide film, onto which the particle beam has been irradiated; measuring intensity of photoluminescence emitted from the evaluation-target silicon sample irradiated with the excitation and evaluating carbon concentration of the evaluation-target silicon sample on the basis of the measured intensity of photoluminescence, wherein the photoluminescence is band-edge luminescence of silicon.
