with platinum electrodes subjected to hydrogen annealing using strain imaging. The polarization remains downward, when the applied voltage is below 3Vpp. This is caused by a positive internal electric field produced by space charges created in areas with upper platinum electrodes. The freezing of polarization induces a significant reduction in remanent polarization but does not cause large changes in permittivity.
