Highlights: Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Peak of Cu{sup 2+} is found to be maximum at around 794 nm for lithium boro tellurite glasses. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Variation in g{sub ||} and A{sub ||} values is due to change in environment of Cu{sup 2+} ion due to the structural change in the glass. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer BO{sub 3}-BO{sub 4}{sup -} ring structure is interconnected by TeO{sub 3}{sup -} and TeO{sub 4}{sup -} groups, where the BO{sub 4}{sup -} groups are neighbors of TeO{sub 3}{sup -}groups. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer The structure comprising, isolate a BO{sub 3}{sup -}, B{sub 2}O{sub 5}, BO{sub 4}{sup -}, and metaborates, which enables glass forming for Borate rich glasses. Black-Right-Pointing-Pointer Distorted TeO{sub 4/2} network with BO{sub 3}{sup -}-BO{sub 4}{sup -} ring structure and TeO{sub 3}{sup -} group is enables glass forming for tellurite rich glasses. -- Abstract: xTeO{sub 2} + (70 - x)B{sub 2}O{sub 3} + 5TiO{sub 2} + 24R{sub 2}O:1CuO (x = 10, 35 and 60; R = Li, Na and K) glass system were studied by spectroscopic techniques such as ESR, optical absorption, Raman and IR. From ESR spectra, the spin Hamiltonian parameter values indicate that the ground state of Cu{sup 2+} is d{sub x{sup 2}-y{sup 2}} and the site symmetry around the Cu{sup 2+} ion is tetragonally distorted octahedral coordination. Bonding parameters calculated from optical absorption and ESR data are found to change with alkali oxide and TeO{sub 2} content. Bonding parameters indicate a slight covalency for the in-plane {sigma} bonding as compared to in-plane and out-of-plane {pi} bonds. Both Raman and IR results show that glass network consists of TeO{sub 3}, TeO{sub 4}, BO{sub 3}, BO{sub 4} and RiO{sub 4} group as basic structural groups. BO{sub 3}-BO{sub 4}{sup -} ring structure interconnected by TeO{sub 3}{sup -} and TeO{sub 4}{sup -} groups, where the BO{sub 4}{sup -} groups are neighbors of the TeO{sub 3}{sup -} groups. BO{sub 3} {yields} BO{sub 4} transition is also observed, which correlates with the transition of TeO{sub 4} {yields} TeO{sub 3} via TeO{sub 3+1}.
