The invention relates to an apparatus for inspecting a surface of a sample, wherein the apparatus comprises: at least one charged particle source for generating an array of primary charged particle beams, a condenser lens for directing all charged particle beams to a common cross-over, a lens system for directing the primary charged particle beams from the common cross-over towards the sample surface and for focusing all primary charged particle beams into an array of individual spots on the sample surface, and a position sensitive secondary electron detector positioned at least substantially in or near a plane comprising said common cross-over. |
