What is the difference between impeachment and criminal trial?
I'm disappointed in you for not knowing this. Impeachment is a political process that involves the House and then the Senate votes if the the person should be removed. This is done by the legislature. The head of the Supreme Court does sit in on the proceedings, but it is a legislative function, not a judicial one - where it would be held in a court.

You are correct except that an impeachment is held in the House of Congress and only the Chief Justice sits over the proceeding.

The House of Reprsentatives can impeach.
The Senate will hold a trial and decide whether or not the impeachment will lead to the removal of the President from his office.
The only time of this coming close to happening was in the impeachment trial against President Nixon. When Nixon saw that the votes in the Senate were going toward his removal, he chose to resign.
He was then tried later by the DOJ and found guilty only to be pardoned later by President Ford.
