Indium gallium nitride (InGaN) nanowire arrays (Eg approximate to 1.75 eV) are monolithically integrated on a Si solar cell through a Si tunnel junction. With such a nearly ideal energy bandgap configuration, a saturated photocurrent density of 16.3 mA cm-2 is achieved under AM1.5G one sun illumination. The applied-biasphoton- to-current efficiency reaches 8.3% at 0.5 V versus normal hydrogen electrode.
