Abstract Novel lead-bismuthate glasses with low OH concentration have been obtained in the Bi2O3-PbO-SrO system. The role of the different components in the glass formation has been explored from the density, refractive index measurements, indicating that the physical properties are mainly affected by Bi2O3 and PbO contents. The densities and refractive indices of these glasses are in the ranges of 7.639--7.699g/cm3 and 2.47--2.94, respectively. A wide transmitting window from visible to infrared (IR) regions and good thermal stability for some compositions of these glasses have been observed, which make them appealing candidates for different optical applications such as upconverting phosphors, new laser materials, optical waveguides and crystal-free fibre drawing.
