The fuel nozzle has a tubular heat shield which surrounds a nozzle stem to form an air gap between the nozzle stem and the heat shield. A radiation layer is located on an inner wall of the heat shield and an outer wall of the nozzle stem. The radiation layer is a layer or plating using a metal having a low emissivity, such as gold (Au).
