Abstract:
A method of forming an array of capacitors and access transistors there-above comprises forming access transistor trenches partially into insulative material. The trenches individually comprise longitudinally-spaced masked portions and longitudinally-spaced openings in the trenches longitudinally between the masked portions. The trench openings have walls therein extending longitudinally in and along the individual trench openings against laterally-opposing sides of the trenches. At least some of the insulative material that is under the trench openings is removed through bases of the trench openings between the walls and the masked portions to form individual capacitor openings in the insulative material that is lower than the walls. Individual capacitors are formed in the individual capacitor openings. A line of access transistors is formed in the individual trenches. The line of access transistors electrically couples to the individual capacitors that are along that line. Other aspects, including structure independent of method, are disclosed.
