Some embodiments include a ferroelectric device having a ferroelectric insulative material which includes zinc. Some embodiments include a capacitor having a ferroelectric insulative material between a first electrode and a second electrode. The ferroelectric insulative material includes one or more metal-oxide-containing layers and one or more zinc-containing layers. Some embodiments include a memory array having a first set of first conductive structures and a second set of second conductive structures. The first conductive structures are coupled with driver circuitry, and the second conductive structures are coupled with sensing circuitry. The memory array includes an array of access devices. Each of the access devices is uniquely addressed by one of the first conductive structures in combination with one of the second conductive structures. Ferroelectric capacitors are coupled with the access devices. Each of the ferroelectric capacitors includes ferroelectric insulative material having zinc.

Ferroelectric devices

Semiconductor device interconnect structures comprising nitrided barriers are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, an interconnect structure includes a conductive material at least partially filling an opening in a semiconductor substrate, and a nitrided barrier between the conductive material and a sidewall in the opening. The nitrided barrier comprises a nitride material and a barrier material, such as tantalum, between the nitride material and the sidewall of the substrate.
