Abstract:
Some embodiments include a memory cell which has, in the following order; a control gate, charge-blocking material, charge-trapping material, a first oxide, a charge-passage structure, a second oxide, and channel material. The charge-passage structure has a central region sandwiched between first and second regions. The central region has a lower probability of trapping charges and/or a lower rate of trapping charges than the first and second regions. Some embodiments include an integrated structure having a vertical stack of alternating conductive levels and insulative levels, and having a charge-passage structure extending vertically along the vertical stack. Some embodiments include a NAND memory array having a vertical stack of alternating insulative levels and wordline levels, and having a charge-passage structure extending vertically along the vertical stack.
