Abstract
A method for acquiring a settling time includes forming, using a deflector, a reference pattern so that a deflection movement amount of the beam may be smaller than an evaluation deflection movement amount; forming, while variably setting the settling time of the DAC amplifier, an evaluation pattern such that both ends of the width dimension of the evaluation pattern being the same design width dimension as that of the reference pattern, for each of times set variably, such that a deflection movement amount of a second beam shot of two beam shots successively shot is equivalent to the evaluation deflection movement amount; calculating a difference between the width dimension of the evaluation pattern concerned and that of the reference pattern, for each of the times set variably; and acquiring a settling time of the DAC amplifier necessary for the deflection movement amount, using the difference.
