Abstract

Memory array structures might include a first conductive plate connected to memory cells of a first dummy block of memory cells and to memory cells of a second dummy block of memory cells on opposing sides of a first isolation region; a second conductive plate connected to memory cells of the first dummy block of memory cells and to memory cells of the second dummy block of memory cells on opposing sides of a second isolation region; first and second conductors selectively connected to a first global access line, and connected to the first conductive plate on opposing sides of the first isolation region; third and fourth conductors selectively connected to a second global access line, and connected to the second conductive plate on opposing sides of the second isolation region; and a fifth conductor connected to the third conductor and connected to the second conductor.
