The secondary electron emission (SEE) yield of coaxially AlN or GaN coated ZnO nanoneedle heterostructures has been measured. The SEE yield of the heterostructures is enhanced significantly by the inherited nanostructures from the ZnO nanoneedle templates as compared to the AlN and GaN thin films on...
