The invention encompasses methods of forming metal nitride proximate dielectric materials. The metal nitride comprises two portions, with one of the portions being nearer the dielectric material than the other. The portion of the metal nitride nearest the dielectric material is formed from a non-halogenated metal-containing precursor, and the portion of the metal nitride further from the dielectric material is formed from a halogenated metal-containing precursor. The methodology of the present invention can be utilized for forming capacitor constructions, with the portion of the metal nitride formed from the halogenated metal-containing precursor being incorporated into a capacitor electrode.
