Integrated assemblies having thicker semiconductor material along one region of a conductive structure than along another region, and methods of forming integrated assemblies

Abstract:

Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having a conductive structure which includes a semiconductor material over a metal-containing material. A stack of alternating conductive levels and insulative levels is over the conductive structure. A partition extends through the stack. The partition has wall regions, and has corner regions where two or more wall regions meet. The conductive structure includes a first portion which extends directly under the corner regions, and includes a second portion which is directly under the wall regions and is not directly under the corner regions. The first portion has a first thickness of the semiconductor material and the second portion has a second thickness of the semiconductor material. The first thickness is greater than the second thickness. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.
