We present a synchrotron x-ray study of the equilibrium polarization structure of ultrathin PbTiO3 films on SrRuO3 electrodes epitaxially grown on SrTiO3 (001) substrates, as a function of temperature and the external oxygen partial pressure (pO(2)) controlling their surface charge compensation. We find that the ferroelectric Curie temperature (T-C) varies with pO(2) and has a minimum at the intermediate pO(2), where the polarization below T-C changes sign. The experiments are in qualitative agreement with a model based on Landau theory that takes into account the interaction of the phase transition with the electrochemical equilibria for charged surface species. The paraelectric phase is stabilized at intermediate pO(2) when the concentrations of surface species are insufficient to compensate either polar orientation.
