Piezoelectric response hysteresis curves of Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O-3-based capacitors have been measured by piezoresponse force microscopy. The piezoelectric coefficient d(33) was found to vary considerably depending on the position of the probing tip on the top electrode for films possessing a c/a/c domain structure. d(33) values up to 125 pm/V, which is twice the theoretical value for a clamped film, have been measured. The spatial variations of the piezoelectric response amplitude is explained by a local movement of ferroelastic 90 degrees a domains. This work experimentally proves the local enhancement of the polarization near the 90 degrees wall boundaries, as predicted by Ishibashi.
