Abstract
Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having active-region-pillars extending upwardly from a base. Each of the active-region-pillars has a pair of storage-element-contact-regions, and a digit-line-contact-region between the storage-element-contact-regions. The integrated assembly includes, along a cross-section, a first digit-line-contact-region adjacent a first storage-element-contact-region. The first digit-line-contact-region is recessed relative to the first storage-element-contact-region. A first digit-line is coupled with the first digit-line-contact-region. A second digit-line is laterally offset from the first digit-line. An insulative material is between the first digit-line and the first storage-element-contact-region. A cup-shaped indentation extends into the insulative material and the first storage-element-contact-region. Insulative spacers are along sidewalls of the first and second digit-lines, and include first material. First and second insulative pillars are over the first and second digit-lines, and include second material. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.
