Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for differential storage in memory arrays are described. A memory device may include pairs of memory cells configured to store a single logic state (e.g., a single bit of information). Additionally, the memory device may include sense amplifiers configured to sense the logic state based on a difference between a voltage of a first ferroelectric memory cell of the pair of memory cells and a voltage of a second ferroelectric memory cell of the pair of memory cells. In one example, the memory device may include pairs of memory cells within a single memory array on a single level. Here, each memory cell pair may include a memory cells that are each coupled with a same word line and plate line. Additionally, each memory cell pair may include memory cells each coupled with different digit lines.

The channel region is adjacent to the conductive gate and is vertically disposed between the first and second source/drain regions. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for ferroelectric memory arrays with low permittivity dielectric barriers are described. In some cases, a manufacturing process to manufacture a memory array may include depositing a dielectric barrier between respective bottom electrodes of a pair of adjacent memory cells of the array. For example, the manufacturing process may include depositing a film of dielectric material over rows of bottom electrodes formed on a set of dielectric walls to at least partially fill space between adjacent bottom electrodes. Alternatively, the manufacturing process may include depositing a film of dielectric material into a set of cavities of the memory array, each cavity having a set of bottom electrodes formed on sidewalls of the cavity. Subsequently, a portion of the dielectric material may be removed to expose surfaces of the bottom electrodes, leaving behind a set of dielectric barriers between adjacent bottom electrodes.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for techniques to manufacture ferroelectric memory devices are described. In some cases, a memory array may be manufactured using a self-aligned manufacturing technique. For example, a continuous layer of dielectric material may be formed over an assembly which includes an array of transistors coupling contacts on the surface of the assembly with a set of digit lines. In some cases, an array of cavities may be etched into the dielectric material, each cavity exposing a set of contacts. A set of bottom electrodes corresponding to the set of contacts may be formed on sidewalls in each cavity, for example by depositing a layer of electrode material and etching the electrode material using a variety of hard masks.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for a ferroelectric memory architecture are described. A memory architecture may include a gap region between memory cells to reduce a capacitance between plates coupled with the memory cells. The gap region may include a fluid, such as air, which may have a relatively low dielectric constant to reduce a capacitance between plates and reduce (e.g., eliminate) undesirable coupling between plates during memory operations.

Abstract: A memory device includes an array of memory cells. A memory cell includes a transistor with a pillar that includes an upper source/drain, a lower source/drain, and a channel between the upper source/drain and the lower source/drain. The transistor includes a gate that is part of a gate line and that is proximate to the channel. The memory cell includes a capacitor having a bottom electrode, an insulator, and a top electrode. The memory cell includes a conductive contact region that couples the transistor and the capacitor and that includes the upper source/drain, a first conductive region having a right surface that abuts the upper source/drain and having a left surface that contacts a first insulator line, and a second conductive region having a left surface that abuts the upper source/drain and having a right surface that contacts a second insulator line that is parallel to the first insulator line.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for formation for memory cells are described. A semiconductor device (e.g., a memory die) may include asymmetrical rows of conductive pillars and one or more dielectric materials. For example, the memory die may include a set of conductive pillars that are arranged in rows that are asymmetrically spaced. Here, a first row of conductive pillars may be a first distance away from a second row of conductive pillars and a second, larger distance away from a third row of conductive pillars. Additionally, the memory die may include one or more dielectric materials. In some cases, when depositing a dielectric material as part of a self-aligning process, the material may conformally line exposed surfaces according to a substantially uniform depth, which may decrease a subsequent quantity of masking operations to form the memory die.

Abstract: A method used in forming an array of memory cells comprises forming a vertical stack comprising transistor material directly above insulator material. A mask is used to subtractively etch both the transistor material and thereafter the insulator material to form a plurality of pillars that individually comprise the transistor material and the insulator material. The insulator material is laterally-recessed from opposing lateral sides of individual of the pillars selectively relative to the transistor material of the individual pillars. The individual pillars are formed to comprise a first capacitor electrode that is in void space formed from the laterally recessing. Capacitors are formed that individually comprise the first capacitor electrode of the individual pillars. A capacitor insulator is aside the first capacitor electrode of the individual pillars and a second capacitor electrode is laterally-outward of the capacitor insulator.

Linear structures are above the pillars and extend along the column direction. Bottom electrodes are coupled with the upper source/drain regions. The bottom electrodes have horizontal segments adjacent the upper source/drain regions and have vertical segments extending upwardly from the horizontal segments. The vertical segments are adjacent to lateral sides of the linear structures. Ferroelectric-insulative-material and top-electrode-material are over the bottom electrodes.

One of (a) or (b) is formed over opposing sidewalls of the first gate insulator material in the vertical cross-section, where (a): conductive gate lines that are horizontally elongated through the vertical cross-section; and (b): sacrificial placeholder gate lines that are horizontally elongated through the vertical cross-section. The one of the (a) or the (b) laterally overlaps the upper source/drain region and the lower source/drain region.
