| Summary:
The epitaxial growth of 111 oriented Au on MoS$_2$ is well documented despite the large lattice mismatch (~8% biaxial strain), and the fact that a Au 001 orientation results in much less elastic strain. An analysis based on density functional and linear elasticity theories reveals that the 111 orientation is stabilized by a combination of favorable surface and interfacial contributions to the energy, and the compliance of the first layer of the MoS$_2$.
