Zusammenfassung:The present invention is related to a new direct piezoelectric force microscope (1) and the method for imaging and/or characterizing ferroelectric and/or piezoelectric samples using the direct piezoelectric force microscope (1). This device and this method obtain a direct quantitative measurement of the piezoelectric constant in piezoelectric and/or ferroelectrics samples by using amplifier means (5) and a probe that comprises a tip (3) which is adapted to discharge all the superficial charge and strain a piezoelectric material in order to collect the charge build up by the direct piezoelectric effect.
