A method and an apparatus for fabricating a high tensile stress film includes providing a substrate, forming a poly stressor on the substrate, and performing an ultra violet rapid thermal process (UVRTP) for curing the poly stressor and adjusting its tensile stress status, thus the poly stressor serves as a high tensile stress film. Due to a combination of energy from photons and heat, the tensile stress status of the high tensile stress film is adjusted in a relatively shorter process period or under a relatively lower temperature.
