What would you discover if measurement limitations disappeared?
Radically better X-Ray data—so you can see what others miss and move faster than ever.
+1,000 researcher worldwide use our service
More than 1,000 researchers across the globe already collaborate with us!
Whether you’re working in academic research or developing materials in industry—we support both.
What happens when world-class X-ray measurement becomes accessible?
For too long, researchers have had to compromise: accessible measurements with limited data quality, or high-end synchrotron facilities with long wait times.
Momentum Transfer removes this trade-off. We measure your samples using advanced X-ray techniques at ESRF’s beamline ID31—giving you synchrotron-quality data with consistent 7-day turnaround.
You send us your samples, we handle the rest: setup, measurement, and transparent data delivery tailored to your workflow.
Whether you’re working on five samples or five thousand, we scale with your research—no beamline access, no complex onboarding, and no delays.
It’s high-precision measurement, finally designed around the way research actually works.

Access advanced X-ray techniques
We offer HR-XRPD, Total Scattering, PDF analysis, and SAXS—powerful tools to uncover structural details from atomic order to nanoscale morphology.
"Momentum Transfer data have been incredibly valuable for my research. You can see things that just aren't visible in laboratory measurements."

The high resolution data were considerably superior to all other data we have collected for the same samples...Such high resolution data are fundamental to discriminate several minor phases in cement samples and also extremely useful to distinguish polymorphism and minor contamination.

Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina
Overall, the XRD data quality is superb and your help plus documentation with reducing/fitting data is very helpful…. I hope we can keep using Momentum Transfer in the future. It’s really nice to be able to combine Rietveld+PDF.
Prof. Yoji Kobayashi
KAUST
The XRD look amazing. Previously, I thought our peak widths were materials-limited, but turns out they are definitely instrument limited on our lab instrument…. We will definitely consider sending you samples in the future.
Prof. Frederik Haase
Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg
Overall, I found your measurements are fast, the data reduction is very professional and saved me time from doing data reduction such as background correction, so I just need to focus on data analysis.

Built by researchers, for researchers
Our platform makes submitting samples, tracking progress, and accessing data seamless—so nothing slows down your research.
It was developed by researchers who know the process from the inside out: Dr. Maxwell Terban (Materials Scientist), Dr. Bernd Hinrichsen (Mineralogist), and Dr. Sebastian Winkler (Physicist) built the platform they once needed themselves.
From sample to data in days—not weeks or months
Collaborate with our scientists through a simple, guided process that delivers high-resolution data you can trust.
