Focused ion beam (FIB) machining has become a standard tool for sample preparation and in combination with digital image correlation (DIC) for the evaluation of local intrinsic stresses by measuring strain relaxation. However, FIB milling always leads to irradiation damage of the material. Current models for the formation of irradiation damage and the sputter yield are based on two key parameters, the threshold displacement energy (TDE) and surface binding energy (SBE), which are usually determined from unstrained systems with idealized surfaces. Here we use atomistic simulations to determine the TDE and SBE for strained silicon and aluminum and compare the results to full cascade simulations. A clear, material class dependent influence of the strain state on the TDE is observed, and surface amorphisation is shown to significantly increase the SBE of {001} surfaces.
