Microscope image measuring device and microscope image measuring method

Abstract

In a measurement of a microscope image, a measurement can be conducted with high accuracy when measuring a measuring object including a step having a depth larger than a depth of focus or comparing patterns at different positions along the optical axis of a microscope. A microscope image measuring device includes: a microscope for obtaining a magnified image of a surface of a measuring object by irradiating the surface with white incident light; a spectral camera for obtaining a spectral image of the magnified image; and an image processing part for extracting the spectral image at each wavelength and performs an image measuring process. The microscope forms an image of a different focal position at each wavelength on the imaging surface of the spectral camera, and the image processing part extracts a spectral image with a wavelength where a measuring point has the highest contrast, and performs edge detection.
