Inspection device
First Claim
1. An inspection device for inspecting a surface of an inspection object using a beam comprising:
- a beam generator which is capable of generating one of either charge particles or an electromagnetic wave as a beam;
a primary optical system which is capable of guiding and irradiating the beam to the inspection object supported within a working chamber;
a secondary optical system which is capable of including a first movable numerical aperture and a first detector which detects secondary charge particles generated from the inspection object, the secondary charge particles passing through the first movable numerical aperture;
an image processing system which is capable of forming an image based on the secondary charge particles detected by the first detector; and
a second detector arranged between the first movable numerical aperture and the first detector and which detects a location and shape at a cross over location of the secondary charge particles generated from the inspection object.
