    Abstract: A method of forming a pattern on a substrate includes forming spaced first features derived from a first lithographic patterning step. Sidewall spacers are formed on opposing sides of the first features. After forming the sidewall spacers, spaced second features derived from a second lithographic patterning step are formed. At least some of individual of the second features are laterally between and laterally spaced from immediately adjacent of the first features in at least one straight-line vertical cross-section that passes through the first and second features. After the second lithographic patterning step, all of only some of the sidewall spacers in said at least one cross-section is removed.

    Abstract: Some embodiments include methods of forming electrically conductive lines. Photoresist features are formed over a substrate, with at least one of the photoresist features having a narrowed region. The photoresist features are trimmed, which punches through the narrowed region to form a gap. Spacers are formed along sidewalls of the photoresist features. Two of the spacers merge within the gap. The photoresist features are removed to leave a pattern comprising the spacers. The pattern is extended into the substrate to form a plurality of recesses within the substrate. Electrically conductive material is formed within the recesses to create the electrically conductive lines. Some embodiments include semiconductor constructions having a plurality of lines over a semiconductor substrate. Two of the lines are adjacent to one another and are substantially parallel to one another except in a region wherein said two of the lines merge into one another.

    Abstract: Substrates and methods of forming a pattern on a substrate. The pattern includes a repeating pattern region and a pattern-interrupting region adjacent to the repeating pattern region. A mask is formed on the substrate, with the mask including the repeating pattern region and the pattern-interrupting region and which are formed using two separate masking steps. The mask is used in forming the pattern into underlying substrate material on which the mask is received. Substrates comprising masks are also disclosed.
