Highly‐oriented indium tin oxide nanocolumns are prepared by glancing‐angle deposition with nitrogen. The tapered column profiles, which function as a graded‐refractive‐index layer, offer superior antireflective characteristics. The nanostructured material serves as the conductive antireflective layer for GaAs solar cells, demonstrating a viable efficiency‐boosting strategy for next‐generation photovoltaics.
