A supplying system of adding gas into the polishing slurry and method thereof are described. The supplying system includes a slurry container, a gas-mixed container, an adjusting device, a first flow controller, and a second flow controller. The supplying system utilizes the adjusting device to mix the polishing slurry with gas for forming the gas-mixed polishing slurry. The supplying system of adding the gas into the polishing slurry and method thereof are capable of increasing the material removal rate of the surface of the substrate in order to improve the processing quality of the substrate.

1. A supplying system of adding a gas into a polishing slurry, which is applicable to a planarization process apparatus to be used in a substrate, for polishing the substrate, the supplying system comprising: a slurry container, for storing the polishing slurry;a gas-mixed container connected to the slurry container, for receiving the polishing slurry;a gas container, for storing the gas and transporting the gas to the gas-mixed container;an adjusting device connecting the gas-mixed container to the gas container, for controlling the gas container to transport the gas with a predetermined flow rate to the gas-mixed container; anda first flow controller connected to the gas-mixed container, for controlling the gas-mixed container to output a gas-mixed polishing slurry into the planarization process apparatus to allow the planarization process apparatus for polishing the substrate by using the supplying system when the gas is dissolved in the polishing slurry to form the gas-mixed polishing slurry, wherein a solubility of the gas in the polishing slurry of the supplying system is positively related to a partial pressure of the gas in the polishing slurry, and the gas in the gas-mixed polishing slurry serves as main reaction gas for the substrate during the planarization process to increase a removal rate of the substrate. 2. The supplying system of claim 1, further comprising a pressure gauge connected to the gas-mixed container, for displaying a first pressure value of the gas stored in the gas-mixed container. 3. The supplying system of claim 1, further comprising a gas sensor connected to the gas-mixed container, for sensing a gas content of the gas-mixed polishing slurry stored in the gas-mixed container. 4. The supplying system of claim 1, wherein the gas is selected from one group consisting of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and the combinations. 5. The supplying system of claim 1, further comprising a second flow controller connecting the gas-mixed container to the slurry container, for controlling a flow rate of the polishing slurry outputted from the slurry container to the gas-mixed container. 6. A supplying method of adding a gas into a polishing slurry, which is applicable to a planarization process apparatus to be used in a substrate, for polishing the substrate, the method comprising the steps of: storing the polishing slurry by a slurry container;receiving the polishing slurry from the slurry container by a gas-mixed container;storing the gas and transporting the gas to the gas-mixed container by a gas container;controlling the gas container by an adjusting device for transporting the gas with a predetermined flow rate to the gas-mixed container; andcontrolling the gas-mixed container by a first flow controller for outputting a gas-mixed polishing slurry into the planarization process apparatus to allow the planarization process apparatus for polishing the substrate by using the supplying system when the gas is dissolved in the polishing slurry to form the gas-mixed polishing slurry, wherein a solubility of the gas in the polishing slurry of the supplying system is positively related to a partial pressure of the gas the polishing slurry, and the gas in the gas-mixed polishing slurry serves as main reaction gas for the substrate during the planarization process to increase a removal rate of the substrate. 7. The supplying method of claim 6, further comprising a step of displaying a first pressure value of the gas stored in the gas-mixed container by a pressure gauge. 8. The supplying method of claim 6, further comprising a step of sensing a gas content of the gas-mixed polishing slurry stored in the gas-mixed container by a gas sensor. 9. The supplying method of claim 6, wherein the gas is selected from one group consisting of oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and the combinations. 10. The supplying method of claim 6, further comprising a step of controlling a flow rate of the polishing slurry outputted from the slurry container to the gas-mixed container by a second flow controller.
