Abstract

Devices, systems, and methods for forming twisted conductive lines are described herein. One method includes: forming a first row and a second row of a first number of vertical conductive line contacts, the vertical contacts in each row are arrayed in a first horizontal direction and the first row is spaced from the second row in a second horizontal direction; forming a number of conductive lines with curved portions, each conductive line making contact with alternating conductive line contacts of the first and second rows of the first number of vertical conductive line contacts; and forming a second number of conductive lines with one or more curved portions, each conductive line making contact with the remaining ones of the conductive line contacts of the first and second rows of the first number of vertical conductive line contacts that have not been contacted by the first number of conductive lines.
