Nd:BaCl2 transparent ceramic was fabricated by the spark plasma sintering method and scintillation properties were investigated. The sample had a high transmittance of approximately 80% in the near-infrared region. The scintillation peaks due to the 4f–4f transitions of Nd3+ appeared at 880, 1060, and 1330 nm. The scintillation decay time constant of the sample was approximately 500 μs.
