Abstract
A scanning probe microscope includes a cantilever having a probe at a free end thereof; a scanner to three-dimensionally relatively move the probe and a sample; a vibrator to vibrate the cantilever based on a vibrating signal; a displacement detector to detect a displacement of the cantilever and to output a displacement signal indicating the displacement; and a phase difference information detecting section to generate a phase signal including information of a phase difference between the vibrating signal and the displacement signal. The phase difference information detecting section includes a phase regulating portion to provide, to the phase difference, a phase offset to cancel an initial phase difference present in a state in which the probe is not in contact with the sample.
