The surface structure of SrTiO 3 (100) was analyzed at T= 120 K by means of low-energy-electron diffraction. The best theory-experiment fit results for a surface containing domains of two different layer terminations. Both of them show a first-layer puckering with oxygen ions being pulled out of the surface by s (Ti)= 0.08 Å and s (Sr)= 0.16 Å combined with a relaxation of the first two layer distances. This proves the surface to be ferroelectric different from the bulk property in agreement with theoretical predictions.
