METHODS OF FORMING MICROELECTRONIC DEVICES, AND RELATED MICROELECTRONIC DEVICES AND ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
A method of forming a microelectronic device comprises forming a microelectronic device structure comprising a base structure, a doped semiconductive material overlying the base structure, a stack structure overlying the doped semiconductive material, cell pillar structures vertically extending through the stack structure and the doped semiconductive material and into the base structure, and digit line structures vertically overlying the stack structure. An additional microelectronic device structure comprising control logic devices is formed. The microelectronic device structure is attached to the additional microelectronic device structure to form a microelectronic device structure assembly. The base structure and portions of the cell pillar structures vertically extending into the base structure to are removed to expose the doped semiconductive material. The doped semiconductive material is then patterned to form at least one source structure over the stack structure and coupled to the cell pillar structures. Microelectronic devices and electronic systems are also described.

Laterally unconfined structure
Techniques are employed to mitigate the anchoring effects of cavity sidewall adhesion on an embedded conductive interconnect structure, and to allow a lower annealing temperature to be used to join opposing conductive interconnect structures. A vertical gap may be disposed between the conductive material of an embedded interconnect structure and the sidewall of the cavity to laterally unpin the conductive structure and allow uniaxial expansion of the conductive material. Additionally or alternatively, one or more vertical gaps may be disposed within the bonding layer, near the embedded interconnect structure to laterally unpin the conductive structure and allow uniaxial expansion of the conductive material.

Method for fabricating semiconductor device with heat dissipation features
The present application provides a method for fabricating a semiconductor device. The method includes providing a carrier substrate, forming through semiconductor vias in the carrier substrate for thermally conducting heat, forming a bonding layer on the carrier substrate, providing a first die structure including through semiconductor vias, forming an intervening bonding layer on the first die structure, bonding the first die structure onto the bonding layer through the intervening bonding layer, and bonding a second die structure onto the first die structure. The carrier substrate, the through semiconductor vias, and the bonding layer together configure a carrier structure. The second die structure and the first die structure are electrically coupled by the through semiconductor vias.

Semiconductor devices with redistribution structures configured for switchable routing
Semiconductor devices having redistribution structures, and associated systems and methods, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a semiconductor package includes a first semiconductor die including a first redistribution structure and a second semiconductor die including a second redistribution structure. The first and second semiconductor dies can be mounted on a package substrate such that the first and second redistribution structures are aligned with each other. In some embodiments, an interconnect structure can be positioned between the first and second semiconductor dies to electrically couple the first and second redistribution structures to each other. The first and second redistribution structures can be configured such that signal routing between the first and second semiconductor dies can be altered based on the location of the interconnect structure.
