Future HEP experiments present stringent challenges to inorganic\nscintillators in both fast timing response and radiation tolerance. This paper\nreports recent progress in developing ultrafast inorganic scintillators with\nsub-ns decay time for future precision timing detectors and high-rate\nexperiments. Performance of fast and ultrafast crystals with mass production\ncapability are compared to CsI crystals which are used for the Mu2e\ncalorimeter. Examples are LYSO:Ce, BaF2 and BaF2:Y, which are considered for\nMu2e-II. Crystal radiation hardness against gamma-rays and hadrons is reported.\nCurrent status and development effort for the BaF2:Y crystals are discussed.\n
