Abstract

See full text

Some embodiments include semiconductor constructions having an active region surrounded by insulating material. A groove crosses the active region to divide the active region into first and second portions. A conductive wordline material is within the groove. First and second diffusion regions are within the first portion of the active region, and vertically arranged to sandwich a part of the first portion therebetween. Third and fourth diffusion regions are within the second portion of the active region, and are vertically arranged to sandwich a part of the second portion therebetween. First and second conductive regions are in electrical contact with the first and second diffusion regions, respectively. Third and fourth conductive regions are in an electrical contact with the third and fourth diffusion regions, respectively.
