In situ <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">\textit{C}\!\!-\!\!\textit{V}</tex-math> </inline-formula> measurements show a significant shift in the flat band voltages and increased oxide in the border and interface due to charge trapping. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements of Al 2p and O 1s core levels revealed the pre-existing oxygen defects in Al<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">_{\text{2}}</tex-math> </inline-formula>O<inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">_{\text{3}}</tex-math> </inline-formula>, which increase with fluence. The deconvoluted peaks of Al 2p at 74.6 eV designated to Al-sub oxide and the O 1s peak variation in the FWHM signifies the increase in the O defects.
