Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a pattern measurement device that is capable of highly accurately measuring a groove bottom, hole bottom, or the like, regardless of the accuracy of the formation of a deep groove or deep hole. To that end, the present invention proposes a pattern measurement device provided with a computation device for measuring the dimensions of a pattern formed on a sample on the basis of a signal obtained by a charged particle beam device, wherein the computation device determines the deviation between a first part of the pattern and a second part of the pattern at a different height than the first part and pattern dimension values on the basis of a detection signal obtained on the basis of the scanning of the sample by a charged particle beam and corrects the pattern dimension values using the deviation determined from the detection signal and relationship information indicating the relationship between the pattern dimensions and the deviation.
