The experimental and modelling results of the investigation of photovoltaic properties of the InP nanowires grown on p-Si substrate are presented. It is shown that InP 2D-layer between nanowires on Si is II-type heterojanction. The resulting structure exhibits an open-circuit voltage (Voc) of 0,37 V, a short-circuit current density (Jsc) of 10.6 mA/cm2, a fill factor (FF) of 0.61 and efficiency of 2.4% at 1 sun. The InP/p-Si structure can be applied as prototype for solar cells or the photosensitive component in an integrated circuit based on silicon technology.
