Abstract

A charged particle beam system includes: a charged particle beam device configured to emit a charged particle beam from a charged particle source to a sample via a charged particle optical system; and a control system configured to control the charged particle beam device. The control system scans the sample with the charged particle beam in a manner of forming a scan trajectory and determines scores of signal intensities associated with different scan directions in the scan trajectory. The control system generates, based on a relation between the scores and the different scan directions, information on at least one of a focus deviation and an aberration coefficient of the charged particle optical system.
