    Abstract: Methods of operating a memory, and memory configured to perform similar methods, might include applying a positive first voltage level to a first node selectively connected to a string of series-connected memory cells while applying a negative second voltage level to a control gate of a transistor connected between the first node and the string of series-connected memory cells, and increasing the voltage level applied to the first node to a third voltage level while increasing the voltage level applied to the control gate of the transistor to a fourth voltage level lower than the third voltage level and higher than the first voltage level.

    Abstract: A microelectronic device comprises a memory array region, a control logic region, and an additional control logic region. The memory array region comprises a stack structure comprising vertically alternating conductive structures and insulating structures, and vertically extending strings of memory cells within the stack structure. The control logic region underlies the stack structure and comprises control logic devices configured to effectuate a portion of control operations for the vertically extending strings of memory cells. The additional control logic region overlies the stack structure and comprises additional control logic devices configured to effectuate an additional portion of the control operations for the vertically extending strings of memory cells. Methods of forming a microelectronic device, and additional microelectronic devices and electronic systems are also described.

    Abstract: Some embodiments include an integrated structure having a semiconductor base and an insulative frame over the semiconductor base. The insulative frame has vertically-spaced sheets of first insulative material, and pillars of second insulative material between the vertically-spaced sheets. The first and second insulative materials are different from one another. Conductive plates are between the vertically-spaced sheets and are directly against the insulative pillars. Some embodiments include capacitors, and some embodiments include methods of forming capacitors.
