CHARGED PARTICLE BEAM WRITING APPARATUS, CHARGED PARTICLE BEAM WRITING METHOD, AND SHOT CORRECTION METHOD OF CHARGED PARTICLE BEAM WRITING METHOD

In a charged particle beam writing apparatus, a charged particle optical system includes a first, second, and third deflection control system configured to form a shot of a charged particle beam, control a shape and size of the shot, and control an irradiation position of the shot respectively. A shot data generation processing device generates shot data of writing a latent image on a resist layer in a sample, using (1) design data of a pattern to be formed in a member, wherein the member is formed in a sample, and the resist layer is formed on the member, and (2) correction information of a shot size and an irradiation shot position obtained from in-plane distribution data of an XY dimension variation amount of dimension measurement patterns. The dimension measurement patterns are formed by writing test patterns on a resist layer and transferring the test patterns onto a member.
