Award Data
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.

Prediction of Emergent SCIENce and Technology (PRESCIENT)
SBC: Systems & Technology Research LLC Topic: DTRA162005We propose to develop Prediction of Emergent SCIENce & Technology (PRESCIENT), a system that mines a text corpus of scientific patents and publications to discover emerging technologies that may impact WMD or CWMD. PRESCIENT will take as input patents and

Layered Network of Differential Pressure Sensors
SBC: Goldfinch Sensor Technologies and Analytics LLC Topic: DTRA172001Detection of car bomb blasts and unsanctioned nuclear test monitoring need accurate determination of the properties of the blast waves. Differential pressure transducers have the required performance sensitivity but must be scaled up in sensor housing, numbers of sensors in the network, and efficient processing of the data stream. Our data and modeling of differential pressure transducers and embe ...

Low-Cost Sensing Array for Infrasound
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: DTRA172001Infrasound and seismic measurements are used by DTRA and the DoD for nuclear test monitoring, terrorist blast forensics, battle damage assessment, and environmental monitoring. However, these long wavelength physical signals are typically recorded through single-point sensors or sparse low density arrays. As a result, the critical signals of interest are often corrupted or masked by noise or inter ...

A Robust, Machine Independent, Software Toolkit for Topology Aware Process Mapping on Distributed Memory HPC Architectures
SBC: CONTINUUM DYNAMICS INC Topic: DTRA172002A significant performance gap exists between the theoretical number of Floating Point Operations (FLOPS) that a HPC machine is capable of sustaining and the number of FLOPS realized by real-world HPC applications. One of the principle reasons for this gap is the parasitic work that computational processes must do to communicate with one another. It has been shown that this communication work can b ...

Integrated Multi-mode Handheld RIID
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: DTRA152007The goal of the project is to develop a handheld instrument that detects, identifies, and categorizes radioactive sources based on gamma, thermal-, and fast-neutron signatures. Existing radioisotope identification devices (RIIDs) are typically biased toward gamma spectroscopy; some instruments may use an additional inefficient neutron counter in form of a He-3 tube. The recent development of mat ...

Improvements in Scintillation Technology for Detection of Nuclear Radiation
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: DTRA07004High-resolution scintillation crystals and crystal arrays are important components of current and future handheld and arrayed detectors (used for DOD/DTRA applications), and scintillation spectrometers (routinely used in high energy physics research, medical imaging, diffraction, homeland security, nuclear waste clean-up, nuclear treaty verification and safeguards, and geological exploration). Un ...

Portable Time of Flight Mass Spectrometer for Nuclear Forensics
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: DTRA08004Analysis of nuclear material samples in the field has many advantages over laboratory analysis. Laboratory analyses can be slow, involve increased expense, lead to additional waste generation and disposal problems, and may introduce errors due to sample degradation or mishandling. In situ analysis mitigates all of these problems. The specific aim of this project is the development of a truly por ...

Advanced nanocomposite scintillator for gamma radiation detection
SBC: AGILTRON, INC. Topic: DTRA08005Until now gamma radiation detection has required large single crystals of sensitive materials that are difficult to produce consistently on an industrial scale. In collaboration with a research group at the University of Texas at Arlington, Agiltron proposes to develop a new class of nanocomposite scintillator materials. The radiation detection characteristics of the synthetic nanoparticles in the ...

INTENSE GAMA-RAY BEAMS
SBC: Applied Research Associates, Inc. Topic: N/ASTANDARD MONTE CARLO AND FN METHODS FOR RADIATION TRANSPORT WILL BE USED TO STUDY A NEWLY PROPOSED SHIELD CONFIGURATION FOR PROTECTION AGAINST PARALLEL OR SLIGHTLY DIVERING GAMA RAY BEAMS IN A SPACE (NON-SCATTTERING) ENVIRONMENT. THE NEW CONFIGURATION EMPLOYS LAYERED SHIELDS, WITH CONSIDERABLE SEPARATION BETWEEN THE LAYERS, TO SHADOW THE TARGET, OF THE ASSUMPTION THAT THE DIRECTION OF INCIDENCE IS ...
