In this chapter, the physical properties of group III-nitride compound semiconductors are reviewed in the context to act as semiconducting material in photoelectrocatalytic solar fuel structures. The band alignments in the InN-GaN-AlN-InN alloy system are summarized and discuss with respect to potential catalysts HOMO and LUMO states, providing efficient charge transfer in photoelectrochemical cell structures. The present status in group III-nitride materials fabrication and ternary alloy formation, stabilization and integration into envisioned materials structures is presented, together with challenges that have to be addressed to enable the full potential of group III-nitrides to contribute to high-efficient energy generation and utilization.
