Abstract
To align two-stage aperture holes with high precision.SOLUTION: A beam detector includes a first aperture substrate formed with a first passage hole smaller than the inter-beam pitch of the multi-charged particle beam, a second aperture substrate formed with a second passage hole through which one detection target beam that has passed through the first passage hole can pass, and a sensor that detects a beam current of the detection target beam that has passed through the second passage hole. The second aperture substrate includes a conductive material, and a plurality of third passage holes through which light can pass are formed around the second passage hole.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
