A method for fabricating a capacitor is applicable to a fabrication process for a mixed circuit. The method involves forming a first dielectric layer, a stop layer, and a second dielectric layer on a substrate having a conductive region. A first opening is then formed in the second dielectric layer, followed by forming a second opening in the stop layer and the first dielectric layer, so that the first opening and the second opening form a dual damascene opening for exposing the conductive region. The dual damascene opening is filled with a first conductive layer, so as to form a via plug and a lower electrode of the capacitor for connecting to the conductive region. A third dielectric layer, which is located between the lower electrode and a subsequent formed upper electrode, is then formed over the substrate, so that the lower electrode and a part of the second dielectric layer adjacent to the lower electrode are completely covered by the third dielectric layer. A patterned second conductive layer is formed on a part of the third dielectric layer, whereby an upper electrode for completely covering the lower electrode is formed.
