Abstract
A method for inspecting a specimen with an array of primary charged particle beamlets in a charged particle beam device having an optical axis. The method includes generating a primary charged particle beam; illuminating a multi-aperture lens plate with the primary charged particle beam to generate the array of primary charged particle beamlets; and correcting a field curvature of the charged particle beam device with a first and a second field curvature correction electrode. The method further includes applying a voltage to the first and to the second field curvature correction electrode. At least one of the field strength provided by the first and the second field curvature correction electrode varies in a plane perpendicular to the optical axis of the charged particle beam device. The method further includes focusing the primary charged particle beamlets on separate locations on the specimen with an objective lens.
