Abstract:
A method used in forming an array of memory cells comprises forming a vertical stack comprising transistor material directly above and directly against a first capacitor electrode material. A mask is used to subtractively etch both the transistor material and thereafter the first capacitor electrode material to form a plurality of pillars that individually comprise the transistor material and the first capacitor electrode material. Capacitors are formed that individually comprise the first capacitor electrode material of individual of the pillars. Vertical transistors are formed above the capacitors that individually comprise the transistor material of the individual pillars. Other aspects and embodiments are disclosed, including structure independent of method.
