Lithium containing lead zinc borate glasseshave been prepared by melt quenching technique. X-ray diffraction reveals the amorphous nature of the glass. Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) study was carried out in the temperature range RT to 600 deg. C temperature and found glass transition temperature of these glasses decreases with increase in inter substitution of Pb and Zn lithium content. PZB glasses are stable, IR spectra of these glasses show characteristics band originating from borate groups namely [BO{sub 3}] [BO{sub 4}]and B-O-B stretching vibrations respectively, and found that structure is not affected with effect of lithium content. Refractive index of these glasses are in the range of 1.47 with increasing lithium content refractive index decreases indicating decrease in scattering of light.
