Abstract
A method for forming a semiconductor device is provided. The method includes forming a first dielectric layer over a semiconductor substrate and forming a first conductive feature extending into the first dielectric layer. The first conductive feature has a planar top surface. The method also includes forming a second dielectric layer over the first conductive feature. The method further includes forming a hole in the second dielectric layer to expose the planar top surface of the first conductive feature. In addition, the method includes partially removing the first conductive feature from the planar top surface of the first conductive feature to form a curved surface of the first conductive feature. The method further includes forming a second conductive feature to fill the hole after the curved surface of the first conductive feature is formed.
