Abstract:
Some embodiments include apparatuses, and methods of forming and operating the apparatuses. Some of the apparatuses include a pillar including a length, a memory cell string and control lines located along a first segment of the pillar, and select lines located along a second segment of the pillar. The control lines include at least a first control line and a second control line. The first control line is adjacent the second control line. The first control line is separated from the second control line by a first distance in a direction of the length of the pillar. The select lines include at least a first select line and a second select line. The first select line is separated from the second select line by a second distance in the direction of the length of the pillar. The second distance is less than the first distance.

Claim (Index 9):
A method comprising:\n forming a first group of dielectric materials alternating with a second group of dielectric materials over a substrate, including forming each dielectric material of the first group of dielectric materials to have a first thickness; forming a first additional group of dielectric materials alternating with a second additional group of dielectric materials over the first and second groups of dielectric materials, including forming each dielectric material of the third group of dielectric materials to have a second thickness greater than the first thickness; forming pillars of materials through the first and second groups of dielectric materials and the first and second additional groups of dielectric materials; removing at least a portion of the second group of dielectric materials and least a portion of the second additional group of dielectric materials to form vacancies at the portion of the second group of dielectric materials that were removed and the portion of the second additional group of dielectric materials that were removed; and forming a conductive material in the vacancies.
