Abstract

Provided is a charged particle beam device capable of stably obtaining an effect of improving the depth of focus or the effect of correcting spherical aberration. The charged particle beam device includes an aperture having an annular slit or an electrode having an annular slit and is provided with means for adjusting the incident angle at which the charged particle beam is incident on the aperture or the electrode. Since the incident angle at which the charged particle beam is incident on the aperture or electrode having an annular slit can be made closer to perpendicular, the effect of improving the depth of focus or the effect of correcting spherical aberration can be stably obtained.
