Abstract
A charged particle beam writing apparatus includes a stage configured to mount a sample placed thereon; an electron optical column including a charged particle gun and deflector, wherein the charged particle gun is configured to emit a charged particle beam, and the deflector includes a plurality of deflecting electrodes configured to control a path of the charged particle beam; an ozone introducing mechanism configured to introduce ozone into the electron optical column; a first voltage supply unit configured to apply a deflection voltage to the plurality of deflecting electrodes to deflect the charged particle beam; and a second voltage supply unit configured to apply an identical negative DC voltage to the plurality of deflecting electrodes, wherein a negative voltage in which the deflection voltage and the negative DC voltage are added is applied to the plurality of deflecting electrodes while the sample is irradiated by the charged particle beam.
