Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a method for acquiring an image, in which an image reducing the influence of electrification of a substrate is easily acquired. The method, in which an image of an image acquiring region is acquired by radiating an ion beam to a sample having a conducting part with a linear edge on a dielectric substrate, includes: performing an equal-width scan caused by the ion beam in a first direction that obliquely intersects the edge and sweep in a second direction intersecting the first direction, and radiating the ion beam to a scan region of a parallelogram shape wider than the image acquiring region; detecting secondary charged particles to generate image data of the scan region; calculating the image data of the scan region to generate image data of the image acquiring region; and displaying the image data of the image acquiring region.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of acquiring an image of an image acquiring region of a sample, comprising:\n a first step of irradiating and scanning an ion beam in a first scan pattern on a first scan region of a sample, the scan region including therein the image acquiring region; a second step of detecting secondary charged particles generated by irradiating and scanning the ion beam on the first scan region of the sample and generating first image data of the image acquiring region; repeating the first and second steps a plurality of times using different scan patterns on different scan regions that differ from the first scan and the first scan region and from one another, each of the different scan regions including therein the image acquiring region, and generating a plurality of image data of the image acquiring region; generating image data of the image acquiring region by synthesizing all the image data generated by scanning the different scan regions; and displaying the synthesized image data of the image acquiring region.
