The authors introduce here an extended phase-field model with a biquadratic polarization-gradient coupling that enables the spontaneous emergence of Bloch-type polarization in ferroelectric skyrmion bubbles. Using SrTiO/PbTiO/SrTiO heterostructures as a model system, the authors find a coupling-driven transition from achiral to chiral skyrmions and ultimately to mixed-chiral bubbles. While random initial states yield racemic chirality, homochiral vortex precursors deterministically imprint uniform skyrmion handedness under an applied electric field.
