摘要: A memory array comprising strings of memory cells comprises conductor tier comprising conductor material. Laterally-spaced memory blocks individually comprising a vertical stack comprises alternating insulative tiers and conductive tiers. Channel-material strings of memory cells extend through the insulative tiers and the conductive tiers. Conducting material of a lower of the conductive tiers directly electrically couples together the channel material of individual of the channel-material strings and the conductor material of the conductor tier. The conducting material in the lower conductive tier comprises upper conductively-doped semiconductive material, lower conductively-doped semiconductive material, and intermediate material vertically there-between. Other embodiments, including method, are disclosed.

摘要: Some embodiments include an assembly which has channel material pillars, and which has memory cells along the channel material pillars. A conductive structure is under the channel material pillars. The conductive structure has doped semiconductor material in direct contact with bottom regions of the channel material pillars. One or more of magnesium, scandium, yttrium and lanthanide elements is along the bottom regions of the channel material pillars. Some embodiments include methods of forming assemblies. A structure is formed, and a mass is formed against an upper surface of the structure. Plugs are formed within openings in the mass. The plugs comprise a second material over a first material. The first material includes one or more of magnesium, scandium, yttrium and lanthanide elements. Openings are formed to terminate on the first material, and are then extended through the first material. Channel material pillars are formed within the openings.

摘要: An apparatus comprises a conductive structure, another conductive structure, and a laminate spacer structure interposed between the conductive structure and the another conductive structure in a first direction. The laminate spacer structure comprises a dielectric spacer structure, another dielectric spacer structure, and an additional dielectric spacer structure interposed between the dielectric spacer structure and the another dielectric spacer structure. The additional dielectric spacer structure comprises at least one dielectric material, and gas pockets dispersed within the at least one dielectric material. Additional apparatuses, memory devices, electronic systems, and a method of forming an apparatus are also described.

摘要: An integrated assembly having an insulative mass with a first region adjacent to a second region. The first region has a greater amount of one or more inert interstitial elements incorporated therein than does the second region. Also, an integrated assembly which has vertically-extending channel material pillars, and which has memory cells along the channel material pillars. A conductive structure is under the channel material pillars. The conductive structure includes doped semiconductor material in direct contact with bottom regions of the channel material pillars. An insulative mass is along the bottom regions of the channel material pillars. The insulative mass has an upper region over a lower region. The lower region has a greater amount of one or more inert interstitial elements incorporated therein than does the upper region. Also, methods of forming integrated assemblies.
