“…Indeed, there is usually a thin layer with different mechanical properties close to the surface due to surface preparations, such as the FIB polishing which can create a damaged layer (Kheradmand, 2012;Idrissi et al, 2016;Chen, 2020). In order to study the interactions between dislocations, GBs and surfaces, the elastic fields due to one single dislocation in anisotropic bi-materials and half-spaces have been largely investigated for perfect GB and half-space surface models with two-dimensional elasticity theory (Tucker and Crocker, 1968;Gemperlova and Saxl, 1968;Suo, 1990;Ting, 1992;Belov, 1992;Chu and Pan, 2014;Zhang et al, 2016;Chen et al, 2020;Chen, 2020).…”
