A pixel structure includes a first patterned metal layer, a gate insulating layer, a semiconductor channel layer, a second patterned metal layer, a passivation layer, and a conducting layer. A gate line of the second patterned metal layer is electrically connected by the conducting layer to a gate extension electrode of the first patterned metal layer. A source electrode of the second patterned metal layer is electrically connected by the conducting layer to a second data line segment of the first patterned metal layer. A method for fabricating a pixel structure is also disclosed herein.
