Abstract
A charged particle beam device scans a specimen with a charged particle beam and generates an image based on a detected signal from a detector that detects a signal generated from the specimen based on the scan performed by the charged particle beam. The charged particle beam device includes: a blanker that performs blanking of the charged particle beam; an image acquisition unit that acquires a plurality of images by controlling the blanking during the scan performed by the charged particle beam, the plurality of images including pixels corresponding to a region of the specimen that is irradiated with the charged particle beam and pixels corresponding to a region of the specimen that is not irradiated with the charged particle beam; and an integrated image generation unit that generates an integrated image by integrating the plurality of acquired images.
