Abstract
In a charged particle beam device, a control unit performs processing for: operating a deflector based on movement information to move a visual field of a deflector from a first visual field to a second visual field; capturing the sample image with the second visual field to obtain a reference image; operating the deflector to move the visual field from the second visual field to the first visual field; operating the sample stage based on the movement information to move the visual field from the first visual field to a third visual field; capturing the sample image with the third visual field to obtain a comparison image; calculating a positional deviation amount between the reference image and the comparison image; determining whether the positional deviation amount is equal to or less than a designated positional deviation amount; and operating the sample stage based on the positional deviation amount.
