Radial profiles of stellar mass surface density for SFGs, categorized into three stellar mass intervals and eight redshift intervals. For each bin, we present the median Σ* as a function of radius, normalized by the Re (top row) and in physical units of kiloparsec (bottom row). To ensure the reliability of the profiles, we limit the radial range to regions where more than 50% of galaxies in the bin satisfy the adopted criterion for the signal-to-noise ratio. The shaded regions in the top panels denote the 25th–75th percentile distribution of Σ* at each radius. Due to the close of the profiles in physical units across different redshifts, we omit the corresponding distribution in the bottom panels for clarity. We also show the extent of the PSF FWHM using a shaded gray region in the bottom panel. For results in physical units, we also performed a linear extrapolation of the outer profiles, which is shown as a dashed line, to infer the stellar mass surface density in the galaxy outskirts.
