Abstract: Some embodiments include methods of forming memory. A series of photoresist features may be formed over a gate stack, and a placeholder may be formed at an end of said series. The placeholder may be spaced from the end of said series by a gap. A layer may be formed over and between the photoresist features, over the placeholder, and within said gap. The layer may be anisotropically etched into a plurality of first vertical structures along edges of the photoresist features, and into a second vertical structure along an edge of the placeholder. A mask may be formed over the second vertical structure. Subsequently, the first vertical structures may be used to pattern string gates while the mask is used to pattern a select gate. Some embodiments include methods of forming conductive runners, and some embodiments may include semiconductor constructions.

Abstract: A nonvolatile memory cell comprising a pair of spaced apart shallow trench isolation regions formed in a substrate and defining a substrate active region. A tunnel dielectric is formed on the substrate active region. A floating gate is formed on the tunnel dielectric and is self aligned between the spaced apart shallow trench isolation regions. A dielectric layer is formed on the floating gate and a control gate formed on the dielectric layer. A source region and a drain region are formed in the substrate active region on opposite sides of the floating gate.
