Methods Of Forming Pluralities Of Vertical Transistors, And Methods Of Forming Memory Arrays

摘要

Some embodiments include methods of forming vertical transistors. A construction may have a plurality of spaced apart fins extending upwardly from a semiconductor substrate. Each of the fins may have vertical transistor pillars, and each of the vertical transistor pillars may have a bottom source/drain region location, a channel region location over the bottom source/drain region location, and a top source/drain region location over the channel region location. Electrically conductive gate material may be formed along the fins while using oxide within spaces along the bottoms of the fins to offset the electrically conductive gate material to be above the bottom source/drain region locations of the vertical transistor pillars. The oxide may be an oxide which etches at a rate of at least about 100 Å/minute with dilute HF at room temperature. In some embodiments the oxide may be removed after the electrically conductive gate material is formed.
