An anisotropic conductive film (ACF) is formed with an ordered array of discrete regions that include a conductive carbon-based material. The discrete regions, which may be formed at small pitch, are embedded in at least one adhesive dielectric material. The ACF may be used to mechanically and electrically interconnect conductive elements of initially-separate semiconductor dice in semiconductor device assemblies. Methods of forming the ACF include forming a precursor structure with the conductive carbon-based material and then joining the precursor structure to a separately-formed structure that includes adhesive dielectric material to be included in the ACF. Sacrificial materials of the precursor structure may be removed and additional adhesive dielectric material formed to embed the discrete regions with the conductive carbon-based material in the adhesive dielectric material of the ACF.
