Abstract
An object of the invention is to provide a device for observing the same field of view with a charged particle beam device and a camera without increasing a size of a housing. A charged particle beam device according to an aspect of the invention includes: a lens barrel that irradiates a sample with a charged particle beam; an imaging unit that images an optical image of the sample; a sample table on which the sample is placed; and a stage that is movable and on which the sample table is placed, wherein when a distance between a physical central axis of the sample table and a physical optical axis of the imaging unit is defined as a first distance, and a distance between a virtual central axis of the sample table and a physical central axis of the imaging unit, or between the physical central axis of the sample table and a virtual central axis of the imaging unit, or between the virtual central axis of the sample table and the virtual central axis of the imaging unit is defined as a second distance, the second distance is shorter than the first distance.
