The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. Phased Array Ultrasonic NDE of Plasma Facing Components

    SBC: ACOUSTIC IDEAS, INC.            Topic: 34

    Realizing the promise of nuclear fusion depends in part on effective plasma facing components (PFCs) that can withstand the intense heat loads, forces, and neutron bombardment of long-pulse high-power reactor operation. A single reactor such as ITER will require thousands of PFCs. Because imperfections in the joints of just one PFC could have disastrous consequences for reactor operation, joint ...

  2. Hybrid Ceramic/Metallic Recuperator for SOFC Generators

    SBC: Atrex Energy, Inc.            Topic: 15

    Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are one of the most efficient and cleanest power generating systems being developed. A key component is the cathode air heat exchanger, or recuperator, which ensures that the cathode air, and thereby the cells, are at sufficient temperature to permit ion mobility ¿ and thereby improve overall SOFC system efficiency. At present, commercially available metallic recu ...

  3. Unresolved Resident Space Object (RSO) Characterization Using Time-Frequency Analysis

    SBC: ATMOSPHERIC & ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF071283

    Defense of U.S. space assets depends on the successful detection and monitoring of potential threats, including the ability to recognize abnormal spacecraft activities. Although work has been done in this area using resolved images from ground- and space-based sensors, methodologies to characterize unresolved resident space objects (RSO) have received little attention. We propose to develop tech ...

  4. Real-Time Specification of Battlespace Environment

    SBC: ATMOSPHERIC & ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF06248

    A system is proposed for real-time specification of the Battlespace Environment and integrated sensor management designed to optimize the joint operational capabilities of radio-frequency (RF), electro-optical (EO) and infrared (IR) sensors in the detection, tracking, surveillance, and characterization of space objects. To meet this objective, we present a framework for integrating phenomenologica ...

  5. Development of Aircraft Borne 13CH4 Analyzer Using a Continuous Wave Quantum Cascade Infrared Laser Spectrometer

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 47

    Methane is the second most important atmospheric greenhouse gas after CO2, yet its global sources and sinks are still inadequately characterized. Recent observations that industrial plants may account for a substantial fraction of atmospheric methane have lead to an increased emphasis on studies of ecosystem CH4 fluxes, with particular interest in using isotopic composition to identify specific p ...

  6. Aerosol Mass Spectrometry via Laser-Induced Incandescence Particle Vaporization

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 50

    Aerosol particles have important impacts on visibility, acid deposition, climate, and human health. A large fraction of the anthropogenic aerosol is generated from energy-related activities, and carbonaceous species are known to constitute a significant fraction of ambient aerosol mass in many locations. In particular, black carbon (BC), formed in combustion processes, is believed to have a stro ...

  7. Chemical Quick-Quench Probe for Aircraft Engine Emissions Measurements

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: AF05301

    The chemical composition of the exhaust streams of aircraft engines (augmented and non-augmented) and combustors are required for the determination of combustion efficiency and for understanding pollutant formation. Typically, extractive sampling is used to measure aircraft emissions; however, these measurements are biased by chemistry that can occur as the gas sample travels through the probe and ...

  8. Broadly Tunable Quantum Cascade Laser Technology for Remote Sensing

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 01

    National security interests related to the nonproliferation of weapons of mass destruction require the remote detection of trace gases associated with the nuclear fuel cycle. Newly developed, mid-infrared, quantum cascade lasers have the potential to contribute to this application. These small solid state lasers produce relatively high power in the infrared band of light where many gases can be ...

  9. CAPS-Based Particle Single Scattering Albedo Monitor

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 09

    Aerosol particles affect the radiative balance of the earth directly, by scattering and absorbing solar and terrestrial radiation, and indirectly, by acting as cloud condensation nuclei. It is now recognized that atmospheric loading of aerosols, generated through human activities, can exert an influence on the earth¿s radiation budget comparable in magnitude with greenhouse gases. However, unce ...

  10. Precision and Stable Fiber Optical Gyroscope Made of Air-Core Fiber

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: AF071216

    Agiltron proposes to systematic study the un-stable mechanisms, leading to the establishment of space qualification procedure for fiber optic gyros (FOGs). The approach leverages our industry experiences in satellite FOG component and sensor system fabrication. This program will lead to development of a certification service for the air-core photonic band-gap fiber components and navigation-grade ...
