The comprehensive spectral study of lithium metagallate LiGaO2 crystal has been done including methods of pump-probe techniques, optical absorption, photoluminescence, luminescence kinetics, thermoluminescence and polarised luminescence in broad temperature region. Luminescence spectrum of the crystal contains the main emission bands at 4.43, 3.76, 2.38 and 1.77 eV. The novel data on luminescence excitation spectra including VUV area, kinetics and polarization are presented. The correlation between pump-probe experiment results and luminescence properties is found. Conclusions are done about the recombination character of all the observed emission bands, implying tunnel recombination of donor-acceptor pairs.
