A method for fabricating a semiconductor structure includes: providing a substrate with a dielectric layer and a passivation layer formed on the substrate; forming a via through the dielectric layer and exposing the substrate; forming a first conductive layer to fill the via with a top surface of the first conductive layer leveled with a top surface of the passivation layer; forming a patterned layer with an opening on the passivation layer. The opening is located above the first conductive layer with a dimension larger than the dimension of the via. The method also includes forming a trench in the dielectric layer; forming a second conductive layer to fill the trench and to electrically connect to the first conductive layer; then removing a portion of the second conductive layer, the patterned layer, and the passivation layer to make a top surface of the second conductive layer level with a top surface of the dielectric layer.
