* The case of silver apppears to be somewhat unique in that the work functions measured for different crystal faces are significantly different. For polycrystalline silver a value of 4.26 eV has been measured, but for a single crystal a value of 4.74 eV has been measured for the (111) face, with intermediate values of 4.64 eV (100) and 4.52 eV (110).
