This invention stabilizes positioning and provides improved positioning accuracy in a scanning electron microscope provided with stage-driving means utilizing an effect of rolling friction. In this scanning electron microscope that includes a sample stage equipped with an x-table, a y-table, a z-table, a rotation table, and a tilting table, and moved by means of stepping motors each connected to a ball screw via a coupling, a sliding friction element is disposed at a position close to the ball screw, between the x-table and the y-table and between a tilting base and the x-table. |
