New glasses with high Li2O content have been obtained in the system Li20-Bi203-PbO. The role of the different components in the glass formation has been explored from the density and thermal measurements. A wide transmitting window having sharp cut-off in both ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS) and Infrared (IR) regions for almost all compositions of these glasses has been observed, making them an appealing candidate for different spectral devices.
