摘要: A method of forming a microelectronic device includes forming a first dielectric stack over a semiconductor base structure including pillar structures separated by filled isolation trenches. Digit line contacts are formed to partially vertically extend through the first dielectric stack and into digit line contact regions of the pillar structures. Digit lines are formed over and in contact with the digit line contacts, and partially vertically extend through the first dielectric stack. A second dielectric stack is formed over the digit lines and the first dielectric stack. Storage node contacts are formed to vertically extend partially through the second dielectric stack, completely through the first dielectric stack, and into storage node contact regions of the pillar structures. Redistribution layer structures are formed over and in contact with the storage node contacts, and partially vertically extend through the second dielectric stack. Microelectronic devices, memory devices, and electronic systems are also described.

摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for thin film transistor deck selection in a memory device are described. A memory device may include memory arrays arranged in a stack of decks formed over a substrate, and deck selection components distributed among the layers to leverage common substrate-based circuitry. For example, each memory array of the stack may include a set of digit lines of a corresponding deck, and deck selection circuitry operable to couple the set of digit lines with a column decoder that is shared among multiple decks. To access memory cells of a selected memory array on one deck, the deck selection circuitry corresponding to the memory array may each be activated, while the deck selection circuitry corresponding to a non-selected memory array on another deck may be deactivated. The deck selection circuitry, such as transistors, may leverage thin-film manufacturing techniques, such as various techniques for forming vertical transistors.
