A fabrication method for protecting an electrical component on a semiconductor device when subjected to exposure to highly energized electrons, such as those emitted during e-beam irradiation, is provided. An example method may include doping one or more lead-out regions providing an electrical connection to the electrical component of the semiconductor device. In addition, the method may further include forming the electrical component to electrically connect to at least one of the one or more lead-out regions by doping the surface of the semiconductor substrate with a second dopant. Further, the method may include forming a protective barrier on the surface of the semiconductor substrate, substantially aligned with the one or more lead-out regions. The method may further comprise creating one or more cap regions substantially covering the entire surface of the semiconductor except for the lead-out regions by doping the surface of the semiconductor with a third dopant.
