Stable and polarity‐switchable free charges are written on the surface of a LaAlO 3 /SrTiO 3 heterostructure using conducting atomic force microscopy. These charges reversibly tune the conductance at the LaAlO 3 /SrTiO 3 interface in a non‐volatile way. The modulation in carrier density is large, ≈3 × 10 13 cm −2 , comparable to the maximum modulation achieved by the normal field effect.
