    Abstract: A method of forming a microelectronic device comprises forming a conductive shielding material over a conductive shielding structure and a first dielectric structure horizontally adjacent the conductive shielding structure. A second dielectric structure is formed on first dielectric structure and horizontally adjacent the conductive shielding material. The conductive shielding material and the second dielectric structure are patterned to form fin structures extending in parallel in a first horizontal direction. Each of the fin structures comprises two dielectric end structures integral with remaining portions of the second dielectric structure, and an additional conductive shielding structure interposed between the two dielectric end structures in the first horizontal direction. Conductive lines are formed to extend in parallel in the first horizontal direction and to horizontally alternate with the fin structures in a second horizontal direction orthogonal to the first horizontal direction. Microelectronic devices, memory devices, and electronic systems are also described.

    Abstract: A method used in fabrication of integrated circuitry comprises forming metal material outwardly of a substrate. At least a majority (i.e., up to and including 100%) of the metal material contains ruthenium in at least one of elemental-form, metal compound-form, or alloy-form. A masking material is formed outwardly of the ruthenium-containing metal material. The masking material comprises at least one of nine specifically enumerated materials or category of materials. The masking material is used as a mask while etching through an exposed portion of the ruthenium-containing metal material to form a feature of integrated circuitry that comprises the ruthenium-containing metal material.

    Abstract: Some embodiments include an apparatus having a structure with a surface which comprises tungsten. The apparatus has titanium-nitride-containing protective material along and directly against the surface. The structure may be a digit line of a memory array. Some embodiments include a method in which an assembly is formed to have a tungsten-containing layer with an exposed tungsten-containing upper surface. Titanium-nitride-containing protective material is formed over and directly against the tungsten-containing upper surface. Additional material is formed over the protective material, and is spaced from the tungsten-containing upper surface by the protective material. The additional material may comprise silicon nitride and/or silicon dioxide.
