Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent contamination of samples in a simple structure without deterioration of resolution in an electron beam inspection device. SOLUTION: The electron beam inspection device irradiates electron beam from an electron gun in an electron gun chamber onto samples placed in a sample room and detects secondary electron and reflected electron generated from the samples. With this kind of the electron beam inspection device, a means for generating active species of hydrogen is provided in the sample room, where hydrocarbon system gas remaining in the sample room is dissolved into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) through oxidization by activated species of oxygen, to eliminate hydrocarbon system gas from inside the sample room, thus, contamination of the samples can be cut off.
