Zinc Alumino Lithium borate (ZnAlLiB) glasses of different compositions doped with Cu 2+ and Mn 3+ ions have been prepared using a conventional melt quenching technique. Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) studies have been carried out for ZnAlLiB glasses. The physical properties have been measured. The FT‐IR studies indicate that insertion of Cu 2+ ions produces [BO 3 ] and [BO 4 ] basic structural units by breaking the boroxol (B 3 O 6 ) ring, while manganese ions are found to gradually depolymerize MnO 2 ─B 2 O 3 glass matrix. This report presents the synthesis and FT‐IR studies of zinc alumino lithium borate glasses doped with CuO and MnO 2 . The local structure of copper and manganese ions in the glass system can be studied.
