PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus and a method for inspecting a substrate, capable of highly sensitively detecting a defect of the substrate, and to provide a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, which is excellent in yield. SOLUTION: In the apparatus for inspecting the substrate, a movable aperture plate 81 having a plurality of apertures whose shapes and sizes correspond to portions of an object to be inspected, is disposed at a focal plane of a secondary electron beam, and apertures 81Bα-81Bγ, 81Dα-81Dγare selected such that the secondary electron beam which is emitted from an arbitrary portion of the object to be inspected at a high secondary-emission coefficient, passes through the movable aperture plate 81 and provides an image on a detection surface of an MCP detector 31.
