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. Compact Laser Drivers for Photoconductive Semiconductor Switches (16-RD-863)

    SBC: UES INC            Topic: DTRA16A004

    Compact Electromagnetic Pulse Module (EMP) capable of being arranged in series-parallel planar or cylindrical arrays is needed to simulate nuclear weapon effects. High gain optically triggered photoconductive semiconductor switches (PCSS) based on Gallium arsenide (GaAs) with low timing jitter enables the development of planar or phased arrays of modular EMP or High Power Microwave (HPM) sources. ...

  2. Discrete 3-D Electronics for Mobile Radiation Detection Systems

    SBC: RADIATION DETECTION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: DTRA18B002

    Phase II will utilize knowledge gained from phase I work to develop and execute a manufacturing process suitable for producing quantities of 3-D printed discrete circuits for radiation detection systems.  The goal is to support mobile radiation detection system requirements for high voltage, analog amplification, and MCA functionality to produce differential pulse height spectra in time sequence. ...

  3. In-field analysis of trace U and Pu by electrochemical pre-concentration

    SBC: AWAREABILITY TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: DTRA20B003

    AwareAbility Technologies (AAT), in collaboration with The Ohio State University (OSU), proposes to develop a small hand-held analysis kit for in-field analysis of trace amounts of Uranium (U) and Plutonium (Pu) that will meet or exceed the requirements set by DTRA. Swipe, dust, or water samples would be analyzed by this kit for isotopes and isotopic ratios to indicate the special nuclear material ...

  4. Laser-based in-situ, real-time imaging of Temperature in Detonation Environments

    SBC: EXMAT RESEARCH INC            Topic: DTRA19B001

    ExMat Research proposes to develop a hardened and cost-scalable laser-based temperature diagnostic system capable of spatially quantifying the localized temporal evolution of temperature in a detonation environment. During Phase I, we will attempt to determine the technical feasibility of the proposed concept. While ExMat Research will be guiding and overseeing the overall project, Washington Stat ...

  5. Laser-based real-time Temperature Measurements in Detonation Environments

    SBC: EXMAT RESEARCH INC            Topic: DTRA19B001

    To support DTRA’s agent-defeat efforts, we will refine a laser-based Optical Thermocouple (OTC) technology and build and deliver to DTRA a hardened OTC prototype. This OTC system will be capable of quantifying the localized temporal evolution of temperature inside a detonation environment. The OTC technology is based on two-color fluorescence thermometry to determine the temperature. After laser ...

  6. Obscured Object Training with GAN Augmented Synthetic Data

    SBC: ETEGENT TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.            Topic: DTRA21B001

    Machine learning algorithms have demonstrated performance on par with or superior to human analysts on large datasets when sufficient training data is available. For many military applications, sufficient truthed data over relevant operating conditions does not exist and is prohibitively expensive to obtain. A potential solution to thislack of measured datais synthetic data derived from physics si ...

  7. Phase II: In-field analysis of trace U and Pu by electrochemical pre-concentration

    SBC: AWAREABILITY TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: DTRA20B003

    The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) needs a capability to collect and provide immediate presumptive analysis of radiological/nuclear samples of concern at the source of collection. Such in-field technologies should be capable of detecting and identifying trace quantities of elements and/or chemicals containing plutonium (Pu) and uranium (U), with a focus on chemicals specific to the nuclear ...

  8. Portable System with Li Foil MWPC Neutron Detectors

    SBC: RADIATION DETECTION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: DTRA14B005

    At the completion of the research and development effort a Li foil multi-wire proportional counter (MWPC) neutron detector with more than 625 cm^2 of active area will be included in a portable radiation detection system. The system is expected to have an intrinsic thermal neutron detection efficiency of 55% or greater and gamma-ray rejection ratio (GRR) of 1.0x10^-8 or better. A gamma-ray spectrom ...

  9. Portable System with Li Foil MWPC Neutron Detectors

    SBC: RADIATION DETECTION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: DTRA14B005

    At the completion of the research and development effort a Li-foil multi-wire proportional counter (MWPC) neutron detector with more than 625-cm2 of active area will be included in a portable radiation detection system. The system is expected to outperform the standards set by the ANSI N42.53 standards, and gamma-ray rejection ratio (GRR) of 1.0x10-8 or better. A gamma-ray spectrometer for isotope ...

  10. Synthetic Aperture Radar(SAR) Image Generation Data Augmentation

    SBC: ETEGENT TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.            Topic: DTRA21B001

    Machine learning algorithms have demonstrated performance on par with or superior to human analysts on large datasets when sufficient training data is available.  For military applications obtaining sufficient, truthed data is always a challenge.  Three approaches have been used for measured data collections to support sensor exploitation programs: coordinated collections, turntable measurements ...
