摘要 |
In one aspect, the invention encompasses a semiconductor processing method. Two silicon-comprising masses are provided. A first of the two masses comprises a higher dopant concentration than a second of the two masses. The two masses are exposed to common conditions which etch the second mass faster than the first mass. In another aspect, the invention encompasses another embodiment semiconductor processing method. A substrate is provided. The substrate has at least one doped polysilicon mass formed thereover, and has regions not proximate the at least one doped polysilicon mass. Roughened polysilicon is formed along the at least one doped polysilicon mass and over said regions of the substrate. A dopant concentration in the roughened polysilicon is increased along the at least one doped polysilicon mass relative to any dopant concentration in the roughened polysilicon over said regions of the substrate. After the dopant concentration is increased, the roughened polysilicon along the at least one doped polysilicon mass and the roughened polysilicon over said regions of the substrate are exposed to common conditions. The common conditions remove the roughened polysilicon from over said regions of the substrate and leave the roughened polysilicon along the doped polysilicon mass.
