Abstract
A charged particle beam adjustment method includes scanning, with a charged particle beam an emission current of which is set to a first adjustment value smaller than a target value, an aperture substrate including a hole disposed to be a focus position of the charged particle beam using each of lens values in an electron lens and calculating first resolution, calculating a first function of lens values and the first resolution and calculating a lens value range, scanning, with the charged particle beam the emission current of which is set to a second adjustment value, the aperture substrate using each of lens values set to avoid the lens value range and calculating second resolution, calculating a second function of lens values and the second resolution and estimating a lens value at a just focus, and adjusting the electron lens to the lens value at the just focus.
