How openQCM enabled it: → custom firmware for multi-overtone acquisition (1st, 3rd, 5th) → modular USB holder fit into a 3D-printed humidity chamber
Open hardware = adaptability.

🔬 openQCM goes to the synchrotron.
A new Open Access paper in @LangmuirACS (2025) shows how our openQCM Q-1 + Dissipation Module was coupled with GI-SAXS at @DiamondLightSou to crack open a long-standing challenge in lipid biophysics.
Thread 👇
The solution: QCM + GI-SAXS simultaneously, under controlled humidity.
Result on DMPC bilayers: ✅ 2 mg sample (100× less) ✅ 2-hour measurement (vs days) ✅ bilayer thickness & interbilayer repulsion in agreement with 40+ years of literature ✅ access to low water content regime
