摘要： The present invention improves inspection efficiency in detailed inspections of defects performed based on inspection information from a defect inspection. Particles and defects are detected by a defect inspection device 1. If the cause of the particles and defects are to be determined by performing a detailed inspection with a details inspection device 3 using an SEM or the like, attributes are determined on the particles and defects detected by the defects inspection device 1 before the detailed inspection is performed. The attributes are determined with an attribute inspection device using an optical microscope or the like. Based on these attributes, the defects and particles are separated into those that require detailed inspection and those that do not require detailed inspection or that cannot be inspected in detail. A details inspection device 3 is used to inspect the particles and defects requiring detailed inspection.

摘要： During closer inspection with a local defect area being magnified, it is desirable to reduce image acquisition time by making the number of stage moves as few as possible so that a defect can be observed efficiently. To accomplish this, the invention offers a method of observing samples characterized by: acquiring a reference sample image not including any defect on a sample by capturing an image of the sample, based on the information on the defect developed on the sample and detected by an inspection apparatus; adjusting the position of the sample so that the defect will fall within the field of view of image capture, based on the above information; acquiring a defective sample image including the defect on the sample by capturing an image of the sample in the adjusted position; locating the defect on the defective sample image by comparing the reference sample image and the defective sample image; acquiring a magnified image of the defect by capturing a magnified view of the local area where the located defect exists within the field of view of image capture; and displaying the magnified image of the defect on a screen.
