We propose and apply to the KBr(001) surface a new procedure for species recognition in scanning force microscopy (SFM) of ionic crystal surfaces which show a high symmetry of the charge arrangement. The method is based on a comparison between atomistic simulations and site-specific frequency versus distance measurements. First, by taking the difference of force-distance curves extracted at a few judiciously chosen surface sites we eliminate site-independent long-range forces. The obtained short-range force differences are then compared with calculated ones assuming plausible tip apex models. This procedure allows for the first time identification of the tip apex polarity and of the positive and negative sublattices in SFM images of the (001) cleavage surface of an ionic crystal with the rock salt structure.
