14. CNTs from SES Research were suspended in deionized H 2O with sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate surfactant, then dispersed by spin-coating (one 20 μl drop, 3 min wait, 4000 rps for 30 s, 3 repeats).
15. Switching pulses to the electrodes/CNT were applied via ZN50R-10-BeCu needle probes (Lake Shore CPX probe station, Agilent 81110A pulse generator). Switching pulses to the Bruker MESP tips were applied directly on the Veeco Dimension V AFM. For PFM imaging, typical parameters were 20 kHz drive frequency, 3000 mV drive amplitude, and 3 μm/s tip velocity.

18. For the AFM-written domains, the radius was extracted from the total domain area obtained from the binarized PFM phase image. For the CNT and electrode-edge-written domains, the average half-width/width was extracted from a linear portion of the domain.
