According to ref. [16] each nanodomain is terminated at the surface by a large in-plane and small out-of-plane polarization to minimize the electrostatic energy.

Note that we chose a Ti composition of 60% rather than 80% because this effective Hamiltonian was technically built for concentrations close to 50%. As such both PbZr0.4Ti0.6O3 and PbZr0.2Ti0.8O3 have the same tetragonal P4mm ground state in their bulk forms.

Due to the sensitive nature of PFM local measurement (in respect of local regions selection, probes and environment, i.e., temperature, humidity, noise level, etc.), the loops presented in Figure 5 were obtained within one hour using one same probe at several typical local points, respectively.
