Abstract

The present invention provides: a stage device that can suppress bending deformation of a mirror, and that can reduce the positioning error of a stage by reducing the measurement error of the position of the stage; and a charged particle beam device comprising this stage device. The stage device according to the present invention comprises: a table () on which a sample () is placed; a bar mirror () installed on the table (); a laser interferometer () that irradiates the bar mirror () with laser light and receives reflected light from the bar mirror (), thereby measuring the position of the table (); a drive mechanism () that moves the table (); and a plurality of elastic members () installed between the bar mirror () and the table ().
