We demonstrate the effect of infrared (IR) illumination on mechanical resonance frequency of scanning probe microscope (SPM) probe. The analytical estimations permit to relate the observed effect with the SPM-probe heating by IR-radiation. This effect can be used for the SPM mapping of IR-radiation spatial distribution on the emitting surfaces. The proposed method demonstrates high sensitivity to the infrared radiation and lateral resolution in the sub-micron range. It was applied to visualize complex spatial structure of lasing modes on the mirror of whispering-gallery mode GaSb/GaAlAsSb/GaInAsSb laser.
