In this study, Ar/N2-plasma sputtering gas pressure dependence on LaBxNy insulator was investigated to improve the dielectric characteristics.The sputtering gas pressure was changed from 0.19 Pa to 0.65 Pa by changing the Ar/N2 gas flow ratio from 4/2.8 sccm to 14/9.8 sccm. The maximum capacitance of 0.59 mF/cm2 and smallest EOT of 4.8 nm were shown at sputtering gas pressure of 0.19 Pa. The Dit was decreased from 6.5×1012 cm-2eV-1 to 3×1012 cm-2eV-1 by decreasing the sputtering gas pressure from 0.65 Pa to 0.19 Pa. It would be promising for organic-based floating-gate memory with low operation voltage.
