Charged particle beam apparatus and control method

A charged particle beam apparatus acquires an image that is not affected by movement of a stage at a high speed. The apparatus includes: a charged particle source for irradiating a sample with a charged particle beam; a stage on which the sample is placed; a measurement unit for measuring a movement amount of the stage; a deflector; a deflector offset control unit, which is a feedback control unit for adjusting a deflection amount of the deflector according to the movement amount of the stage; a plurality of detectors for detecting secondary charged particles emitted from the sample by irradiation of the charged particle beam; a composition ratio calculation unit that calculates composition ratios of signals output from the detectors based on the deflection amount adjusted by the feedback control unit; and an image generation unit for generating a composite image by compositing the signals using the composition ratio.
