Structural investigations of LiKB 4 O 7 crystals in the 13–290 K temperature range have been carried out by means of the high‐resolution powder diffraction technique applying synchrotron radiation. It is shown that the structural phase transitions are absent and all the linear thermal expansion coefficients α ij are positive in the investigated temperature range.
