Charged particle beam writing apparatus and charged particle beam writing method

Abstract

Drift correction is performed with high accuracy while reducing the calculation amount. According to one aspect of the present invention, a charged particle beam writing apparatus includes an emitter emitting a charged particle beam, a deflector adjusting an irradiation position of the charged particle beam with respect to a substrate placed on a stage, a shot data generator generating shot data from writing data, the shot data including a shot size, a shot position, and a beam ON⋅OFF time per shot, a drift corrector referring to a plurality of pieces of the shot data for every predetermined area irradiated with the charged particle beam, or for every predetermined number of shots of the charged particle beam irradiated, calculating a drift amount of the irradiation position of the charged particle beam with which the substrate is irradiated, based on the shot size, the shot position and the beam ON⋅OFF time, and generating correction information for correcting an irradiation position displacement based on the drift amount, and a deflection controller controlling a deflection amount achieved by the deflector based on the shot data and the correction information.
