In this work, we investigated the luminescent properties of YAG, Ce ceramics with an addition of barium fluoride flux. The ceramic samples were sintered from obtained YAG: Ce, BaF2 phosphor powder. Morphological, luminescent and decay time characteristics of YAG: Ce ceramics were investigated. The luminescence decay kinetics analysis of the ceramics showed that the decay time in phosphors and ceramics is different in the visual spectral range
