PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the positional fluctuation of a charged particle beam caused by the electrification of contamination deposited on the structure constituting a charged particle beam path. SOLUTION: The first draw 3 of an electron beam lithography device, a deflector 4, the second draw 6, an objective draw 8, a deflector 9 and an electron detector 13 are formed by a substance having a photocatalytic action, and light sources 14A to 14E are attached. A photocatalytic reaction is generated by irradiating fluorescent substance having a photocatalytic action with the light sources 14A to 14E, and the contamination deposited on the structure is removed. Besides, a light having a specific wavelength is generated from a phosphoric substance by irradiating fluorescent substance with a charged particle beam, and the contamination deposited on the structure can be decomposed by irradiation with the light to the structure having a photocatalytic action.
