Abstract: A method used in forming a memory array comprising strings of memory cells comprises forming a stack comprising vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers. The stack comprises laterally-spaced memory-block regions that have horizontally-elongated trenches there-between. Channel openings extend through the first tiers and the second tiers in the memory-block regions. Channel material of channel-material strings is formed in the channel openings and the channel material is formed in the horizontally-elongated trenches. The channel material is removed from the horizontally-elongated trenches and the channel material of the channel-material strings is left in the channel openings. After removing the channel material from the horizontally-elongated trenches, intervening material is formed in the horizontally-elongated trenches laterally-between and longitudinally-along immediately-laterally-adjacent of the memory-block regions. Other embodiments, including structure independent of method, are disclosed.

Abstract: A method used in forming a memory array comprising strings of memory cells comprises forming a conductor tier comprising conductor material on a substrate. A lower portion of a stack is formed, with the stack ultimately comprising vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers above the conductor tier. The stack comprises laterally-spaced memory-block regions. Material of the first tiers is of different composition from material of the second tiers. A lowest of the first tiers comprises conductive first sacrificial material. Conductive second material is directly electrically coupled to the conductive first sacrificial material. The conductive first sacrificial material and the conductive second material have different reduction potentials that are at least 0.5V away from one another. A lowest of the second tiers is insulative and below the lowest first tier. The vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers of an upper portion of the stack are formed above the lower portion.

Abstract: Integrated circuitry comprising a memory array comprises strings of memory cells comprising laterally-spaced memory blocks that individually comprise a first vertical stack comprising alternating insulative tiers and conductive tiers. Strings of memory cells comprise channel-material strings that extend through the insulative tiers and the conductive tiers. The conductive tiers individually comprise a horizontally-elongated conductive line. A second vertical stack is aside the first vertical stack. The second vertical stack comprises an upper portion and a lower portion. The upper portion comprises alternating first insulating tiers and second insulating tiers. The lower portion comprises a lowest insulator tier directly above conductor material of a conductor tier. The lowest insulator tier comprises solid carbon and nitrogen-containing material. An immediately-adjacent tier is directly above the solid carbon and nitrogen-containing material of the lowest insulator tier.

Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure are drawn to projecting light on a surface and analyzing the scattered light to obtain spatial information of the surface and generate a three dimensional model of the surface. The three dimensional model may then be analyzed to calculate one or more surface characteristics, such as roughness. The surface characteristics may then be analyzed to provide a result, such as a diagnosis or a product recommendation. In some examples, a mobile device is used to analyze the surface.

Abstract: Some embodiments include a method in which a first stack of alternating first and second levels is formed. At least some of the first and second levels are configured as steps. Each of the steps has one of the second levels and one of the first levels. An etch-stop material and a liner are formed over the stack. A first material is formed over the etch-stop material. Openings are formed to extend through the first material to the etch-stop material. Sacrificial material is formed within the openings. A second stack is formed over the first stack. A second material is formed over the first material. Conductive layers are formed within the first levels. Additional openings are formed to extend to the sacrificial material, and are then extended through the sacrificial material to the conductive layers within the steps. Some embodiments include integrated assemblies.

Abstract: A method used in forming a memory array comprising strings of memory cells comprises forming a lower portion of a stack that will comprise vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers on a substrate. The stack comprises laterally-spaced memory-block regions. Material of the first tiers is of different composition from material of the second tiers. Horizontally-elongated lines are formed in the lower portion that are individually between immediately-laterally-adjacent of the memory-block regions. The lines comprise sacrificial material. The lines individually comprise laterally-opposing projections longitudinally there-along in a lowest of the first tiers. The vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers of an upper portion of the stack are formed above the lower portion and the lines, and channel-material strings are formed that extend through the first tiers and the second tiers in the upper portion to the lower portion.

Abstract: A method used in forming a memory array comprising strings of memory cells comprises forming a stack comprising vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers. The stack comprises laterally-spaced memory-block regions that have horizontally-elongated trenches there-between. Sacrificial material is formed in the trenches. Vertical recesses are formed in the sacrificial material. The vertical recesses extend across the trenches laterally-between and are longitudinally-spaced-along immediately-laterally-adjacent of the memory-block regions. Bridge material is formed in the vertical recesses to line and less-than-fill the vertical recesses and form bridges there-from that have an upwardly-open cup-like shape. The sacrificial material in the trenches is replaced with intervening material that is directly under the bridges. Additional methods and structures independent of methods are disclosed.
