A method of scanning probe microscopy includes supplying heat to a scanning probe. The method also includes receiving a scanning probe deflection signal, where the scanning probe deflection signal is indicative of a magnitude of deflection of the scanning probe when the scanning probe is engaged with a sample. A fourth harmonic signal is separated from the scanning probe deflection signal, and an ionic character of the sample is measured using the fourth harmonic signal.

A method of compensating for an artifact in data collected using a standard atomic force microscope (AFM) operating in an oscillating mode. The artifact is caused by deflection of the probe not related to actual probe-sample interaction and the method includes compensating for thermal induced bending of the probe of the AFM by measuring a DC component of the measured deflection. The DC component of deflection is identified by calibrating the optical deflection detection apparatus and monitoring movement of the mean deflection, thereby allowing the preferred embodiments to minimize the adverse effect due to the artifact. Notably, plotting the DC deflection profile yields a corresponding temperature profile of the sample.
