Supporting Information

Supporting information includes: (i) measured reflection of the FLAT and NW devices, to complement the data presented in Figure 2; (ii) the implied photocurrent density losses, due to reflection and parasitic absorption, as function of height and cross section of the nanowires. The two pictures are complementary to the data presented in Figure 6 of this manuscript.
