Abstract

Some embodiments include a NAND memory array having a vertical stack of alternating insulative levels and conductive levels. The conductive levels include terminal regions, and include nonterminal regions proximate the terminal regions. The terminal regions are vertically thicker than the nonterminal regions, and are configured as segments which are vertically stacked one atop another and which are vertically spaced from one another. Blocks are adjacent to the segments and have approximately a same vertical thickness as the segments. The blocks include high-k dielectric material, charge-blocking material and charge-storage material. Channel material extends vertically along the stack and is adjacent to the blocks. Some embodiments include integrated assemblies. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.
