Microscopic-measurement apparatus
First Claim
1. A microscopic-measurement apparatus for acquiring optical information from desired portions of a sample by moving a measuring optical axis on a surface of the sample, comprising:
- an observation-image display section for displaying a sample surface image as an observation image, in a range of visual field which is observable at a present sample position;
an optical-axis display section for displaying areas to be measured and a present position of the measuring optical axis in an overlapped state with the observation image;
an area setting section capable of setting measuring areas by performing an action to the areas to be measured, selected from the group consisting of expanding, reducing, changing in shape and moving, and combinations thereof; and
an optical-information acquisition section for measuring one set measuring area or several set measuring areas successively with an instruction to start measuring.

Abstract
A microscopic-measurement apparatus capable of conducting measurement successively in several set areas regardless of the type of stage driving system or the precision of the stage driving system. The microscopic-measurement apparatus for acquiring optical information from desired portions of a sample by moving a measuring optical axis on a surface of the sample includes an observation-image display section for displaying a sample surface image as an observation image, in a range of visual field which is observable at a present sample position; an optical-axis display section for displaying areas to be measured and a present position of the measuring optical axis in an overlapped state with the observation image; an area setting section capable of setting measuring areas by expanding, reducing, changing in shape and moving the areas to be measured; and an optical-information acquisition section for measuring one set measuring area or several set measuring areas successively with an instruction of starting measurement.
