Structural and optical properties of ion - conducting lithium bismuthate glasses are reported here. The structure of these glasses has been explored from the compositional variation of the density, molar volume, and glass transition temperature. The optical study in the visible and infrared region indicates a large transmission window for these glasses. The BiO6 octahedra were identified as the main structural unit from the Raman spectra of these bismuthate glasses.
