We study the low-temperature ferroelectric quantum phase transition of SrTiO3. SrTiO3 is perfectly centrosymmetric in macroscopic scale in the whole temperature range. The local structure within the scale of several unit cells is unclear. At low temperature, SrTiO3 possesses quantum paraelectricity with multitudinous physical properties, which attracts a lot of attention. We use extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) to study the local structure of SrTiO3 and its doped variants (SrTi18O3 and Sr1-xCaxTiO3). The results show SrTiO3 has a non-centrosymmetric local structure and the ferroelectric quantum phase transition of SrTi18O3 and Sr1-xCaxTiO3 was confirmed by investigating the relative vibration of the atoms. The small non-centrosymmetric local structure of SrTiO3 and low-temperature phase transition can be used to manufacture electronic devices with special functions, such as radiation-hardness of ferroelectric memories, and array radar devices.
