Vacuum thermal annealing of as-sputtered Mo films results in noticeable change in preferred crystallographic orientation from (1 1 0) to (2 1 1) plane. Correlation between structural and Raman spectroscopy study indicates that Mo film with predominantly (2 1 1) orientation results in pronounced formation of MoS2 compared to the film with the higher degree of (1 1 0) orientation. Planar packing factor, which depends on crystallographic orientation is proposed to play a crucial role in determining the degree of MoS2 formation. � 2018 Elsevier B.V.
