Electron spin resonance spectral parameters of V4+ ions in vanadate-lithium-borate glasses have been calculated by the crystal-field theory. The theoretical results are g = 1.940, g = 1.983 and A = -175×10-4 cm-1, A = -65×10-4 cm-1 which are good agreement with the experimental values (g = 1.939(3), g = 1.998(3) and A = (170.6-176.4)×10-4 cm-1, A = (61.3-71.4)×10-4 cm-1). In addition, the bond lengths of the local lattice structure are, respectively, R = 1.5 Å and R = 1.95 Å which have been shown to have a compressed tetrahedral geometry along the C4 axis.
