Abstract

In accordance with embodiments, a memory array is formed with a multiple patterning process. In embodiments a first trench is formed within a multiple layer stack and a first conductive material is deposited into the first trench. After the depositing the first conductive material, a second trench is formed within the multiple layer stack, and a second conductive material is deposited into the second trench. The first conductive material and the second conductive material are etched.
