Abstract: 

The features of obtaining a nanocomposite consisting of the CaWO4 core which is a scintillation nanocrystal and a mesoporous SiO2 shell (CaWO4@MPSiO2) are considered. The results of the investigation of microscopic and optical parameters of CaWO4@MPSiO2 nanocomposite are presented. The mesoporous SiO2 shell applied to the nanocrystal can be used both as a host for the photosensitizer, and set the necessary distance between the donor and the energy acceptor.
