We conducted structural analysis of x Na 2 O- y Y 2 O 3 -5B 2 O 3 -3Al 2 O 3 and x Na 2 O- y La 2 O 3 -5B 2 O 3 -3Al 2 O 3 glasses to elucidate the additive effects of rare-earth ions in these sodium aluminoborate glasses, and investigated the local environment surrounding Na + in them by using 23 Na and 27 Al magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) spectroscopy. The amount of higher-coordinated Al species ( [5] Al and [6] Al) gradually increased in response to an increase in the ratios of Y 2 O 3 to Al 2 O 3 and La 2 O 3 to Al 2 O 3 in each type of glass, respectively. Moreover, the difference in the cation field strength (CFS) between Y 3+ and La 3+ was observed to affect the generation of [5] Al and [6] Al, especially when the amount of these ions in the glasses increased. In addition to the above, the coordination number of Na + ions increased with an increase in the number of rare earth ions, confirmed by comparing results with NMR spectra of crystalline Na 2 Al 2 B 2 O 7 . The latter possibly occurred due to the oxygen concentration on Al [5] and Al [6] . Finally, it was confirmed that the formation of [5] Al and [6] Al decreases molar volume in oxide glasses, which might be partially due to better atomic packing of [5] Al and [6] Al.
