Abstract: This paper reports on the results of the experimental and theoretical investigations of thermally stimulated recombination processes in crystals of the lithium borates Li$_2$B$_4$O$_7$ and LiB$_3$O$_5$. For both types of crystals, the measurements of thermally stimulated luminescence curves, spectra, and temperature dependences of the intensities of steady-state X-ray luminescence have been performed in a single experimental cycle. In the framework of a unified model for the Li$_2$B$_4$O$_7$ and LiB$_3$O$_5$ crystals, the thermally stimulated recombination processes have been calculated and the obtained results have been interpreted talking into account all available experimental data.
