The crystalline preferred orientation of these Au nanoparticles is investigated by synchrotron hard x-ray diffraction. Nanoparticles preferentially align with the (111) direction along the substrate normal (001), whereas two in-plane orientations are found with $[110]_{SrTiO_3} \\: || \\: [110]_{Au}$ and $[100]_{SrTiO_3} \\: || \\: [110]_{Au}$.
