Abstract:

A method used in forming integrated circuitry comprises forming a stack comprising vertically-alternating first tiers and second tiers. A stair-step structure is formed into the stack. A first liquid is applied onto the stair-step structure. The first liquid comprises insulative physical objects that individually have at least one of a maximum submicron dimension or a minimum submicron dimension. The first liquid is removed to leave the insulative physical objects touching one another and to have void-spaces among the touching insulative physical objects. A second liquid that is different from the first liquid is applied into the void-spaces. The second liquid is changed into a solid insulative material in the void-spaces. Other embodiments, including structure, are disclosed.
