Abstract: A method of forming an array of gated devices includes forming a plurality of semiconductor material-comprising blocks individually projecting elevationally from a substrate and spaced from one another along rows and columns. A gate line is formed laterally proximate each of two opposing sidewalls of the blocks along individual rows of the blocks. After forming the gate lines, semiconductor material of the blocks is removed laterally between the gate lines to form pairs of pillars from the individual blocks that individually have one of the gate lines laterally proximate one of two laterally outermost sidewalls of the pair and another of the gate lines laterally proximate the other of the two laterally outermost sidewalls of the pair. Other methods are disclosed.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a gate structure with a spacer on its side may be used as a mask o form self-aligned trenches in microelectronic memory, such as a flash memory. A first portion of the gate structure may be used to form the mask, together with sidewall spacers, in some embodiments. Then, after forming the shallow trench isolations, a second portion of the gate structure may be added to form a mushroom shaped gate structure.

Abstract: A method of forming an array of gated devices includes forming trenches between walls that longitudinally extend in rows and project elevationally from a substrate. The walls comprise semiconductor material. Gate dielectric is formed within the trenches laterally over side surfaces of the walls and conductive gate material is formed within the trenches laterally over side surfaces of the gate dielectric. Side surfaces of an elevationally inner portion of the gate material within the trenches are laterally covered with masking material and side surfaces of an elevationally inner portion of the gate material within the trenches are laterally uncovered by the masking material. The elevationally outer portion of the gate material that is laterally uncovered by the masking material is removed while the side surfaces of the elevationally inner portion of the gate material are laterally covered by the masking material to form gate lines within the trenches laterally over elevationally inner portions of the walls.
