A method of forming a field effect transistor relative to a monocrystalline silicon substrate, where the transistor has an elevated source and an elevated drain, includes: a) providing a transistor gate over the monocrystalline silicon substrate, the gate being encapsulated fin electrically insulative material; b) providing outer exposed monocrystalline silicon substrate surfaces adjacent the transistor gate; c) cleaning the outer exposed substrate surfaces to remove oxide and impurities therefrom; d) within a rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition reactor and after the cleaning step, chemical vapor depositing conductively doped non-polycrystalline silicon layer over the cleaned substrate surfaces adjacent the transistor gate, the non-polycrystalline silicon layer having an outer surface, the substrate not being exposed to oxidizing or contaminating conditions between the time of cleaning and the chemical vapor depositing; and e) after chemical vapor depositing, exposing the doped non-polycrystalline silicon layer to high temperature annealing conditions effective to, i) produce doped monocrystalline silicon extending outwardly from the substrate surface, and ii) produce doped polycrystalline silicon extending inwardly from the outer surface; the doped monocrystalline silicon and doped polycrystalline silicon joining at an interface which is displaced elevationally outward of the substrate surfaces. A field effect transistor is also claimed.
