Abstract
Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having an upwardly-extending structure with a sidewall surface. Two-dimensional-material extends along the sidewall surface. First electrostatic-doping-material is adjacent a lower region of the two-dimensional-material, insulative material is adjacent a central region of the two-dimensional-material, and second electrostatic-doping-material is adjacent an upper region of the two-dimensional-material. A conductive-gate-structure is over the first electrostatic-doping-material and adjacent to the insulative material. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.
Claims26
An integrated assembly, comprising:
- an upwardly-extending pillar structure that extends upwardly relative to an upper surface of a substrate, the upwardly-extending pillar structure having a pair of vertical sidewall surfaces along a cross-section, and having a top surface extending between the vertical sidewall surfaces;
- one of the vertical sidewall surfaces being a first vertical sidewall surface and the other of the sidewall surfaces being a second vertical sidewall surface, an entirety of the upwardly-extending pillar structure consisting of one or more insulative materials;
- two-dimensional-material in direct physical contact with the first vertical sidewall surface and extending along an entirety of the first vertical sidewall surface;
- the two-dimensional-material having a lower sidewall region, an upper vertical sidewall region, and a central vertical sidewall region between the upper and lower vertical sidewall regions;
- first electrostatic-doping-material in direct physical contact with the lower vertical sidewall region of the two-dimensional-material;
- second insulative material in direct physical contact with the central vertical sidewall region of the two-dimensional-material and on an opposing side of the two-dimensional-material from the first vertical sidewall surface of the upwardly-extending pillar structure;
- a conductive-gate-structure over the first electrostatic-doping-material, adjacent the second insulative material, and proximate the central region of the two-dimensional-material;
- and
- second electrostatic-doping-material over the conductive-gate-structure and in direct physical contact with the upper vertical sidewall region of the two-dimensional-material.
An integrated assembly, comprising:
- first conductive lines extending horizontally along a first direction;
- pillar structures extending upwardly from the first conductive lines;
- the pillar structures consisting of first insulative material;
- the pillar structures being spaced from one another by gaps along the first direction;
- two-dimensional-material extending along upper surfaces of the first conductive lines within the gaps, and along vertical sidewalls and upper surfaces of the pillar structures;
- first electrostatic-doping-material over and in direct physical contact with the two-dimensional material that is along the upper surfaces of the first conductive lines, the first electrostatic-doping-material being in direct physical contact with lower vertical sidewall regions of the two-dimensional-material;
- second insulative material over the first electrostatic-doping-material and in direct physical contact with central vertical sidewall regions of the two-dimensional-material adjacent the structures;
- second conductive lines extending along a second direction which crosses the first direction;
- the second conductive lines being over the first electrostatic-doping-material and being adjacent the second insulative material;
- a second electrostatic-doping-material over the second conductive lines and over the second insulative material, the second electrostatic-doping-material being in direct physical contact with upper vertical sidewall regions of the two-dimensional-material adjacent the structures;
- and
- storage elements coupled with the upper region of the two-dimensional-material.
