Abstract
Some embodiments include an integrated assembly with a semiconductor base having a horizontally-extending upper surface, and having a recessed region. A transistor gate is supported by the semiconductor base. The transistor gate has a first segment over the horizontally-extending upper surface, and has a second segment over the recessed region. The first segment has a first vertically-extending surface along an outer edge. The second segment has a ledge along an edge of the recessed region. The ledge has an upper surface which is lower than the horizontally-extending upper surface. The second segment has a second vertically-extending surface extending upwardly from an inner portion of the ledge. A first spacer is along the first vertically-extending surface. A second spacer is along the second vertically-extending surface. The second spacer has a bottom edge beneath the horizontally-extending upper surface of the base.
