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. Revolutionary Airlift Innovation

    SBC: LOGISTIC GLIDERS INC.            Topic: ST14B004

    We propose to mature LG-X glider technology by manufacturing full-scaled prototypes and characterizing them in land-based flight-testing by using commercial aircraft to drop the gliders. Validated components such as the landing parachute, folding wing mechanism, and autopilot control system will undergo integrated flight-testing. Logistic Gliders will provide a considerable cost share to support ...

  2. Vertical GaN Substrates

    SBC: SIXPOINT MATERIALS, INC.            Topic: DEFOA0000941

    SixPoint Materials will create low-cost, high-quality vertical gallium nitride (GaN) substrates using a multi-phase production approach that employs both hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) technology and ammonothermal growth techniques to lower costs and maintain crystal quality. Substrates are thin wafers of semiconducting material needed for power devices. In its two-phase project, SixPoint Mate ...

  3. Modeling and Optimizing Turbines for Unsteady Flow

    SBC: HYPERCOMP INC            Topic: ST13A005

    We propose to design, fabricate and test turbine blade configurations in a flow driven by a continuous detonation wave engine with a goal of understanding the physics and efficiency of such an integrated device. Analysis based on CFD models and cycle perf

  4. PSSC: Pictorial Structures for Scene Context

    SBC: SOAR TECHNOLOGY INC            Topic: ST14B003

    We propose to develop a Visual Context Understanding (Vis-CU) intelligent agent.Vis-CU tightly integrates vision processing with cognitive reasoning.The vision processing draws the wide array of vision processing capabilities, integrated through the University of Michigans sparse component model into the Soar Cognitive Architecture (Soar).This tight integration facilitates the development of a ric ...

  5. Epitaxial GaN on flexible metal tapes for low-cost transistor devices

    SBC: IBEAM MATERIALS, INC.            Topic: 1

    GaN-based devices are the basis of a variety of modern electronics applications, especially in optoelectronics and high-frequency / high-power electronics. These devices are based on epitaxial films grown on single-crystal wafers. The single-crystal wafer substrates are limiting because of their size, expense, mechanical properties and availability. If one could make GaN-based devices over large a ...

  6. Retrofittable and Transparent Super-Insulator for Single-Pane Windows

    SBC: NANOSD, INC.            Topic: DEFOA0001429

    NanoSD, Inc. with its partners will develop a transparent, nanostructured thermally insulating film that can be applied to existing single-pane windows to reduce heat loss. To produce the nanostructured film, the team will create hollow ceramic or polymer nanobubbles and consolidate them into a dense lattice structure using heat and compression. Because it is mostly air, the resulting nanobubble s ...

  8. Generation and amplification of gravitational waves for military communications

    SBC: SLS, GR LLC            Topic: ST13A003

    We propose to construct a parametric amplifier and oscillator system for generating and detecting gravitational microwaves using a moving, impermeable superconducting membrane as its active element. A configuration of three adjacent, high-Q SRF cylindrical cavities will be constructed, consisting of a single pump cavity separated from a double signal and idler cavity by means of this membrane, ...

  9. Nano-Optomechanical Massive MEMS Accelerometer (NOMMA)

    SBC: A-TECH CORPORATION            Topic: ST13A002

    The primary objective of the Nano-Optomechanical Massive MEMS Accelerometer (NOMMA) project is to develop a chip-integrated optomechanical Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) accelerometer with 100 ng/Hz1/2 sensitivity and 10 kHz bandwidth using high

  10. First Principles Selection of Social Media Visualizations

    SBC: INFERLINK CORP            Topic: ST12A004

    As the importance of social networks skyrockets, so does the need to understand human behavior in these forums. While statistical analyses can help to some extent, many types of patterns are simply not visible by looking at raw numbers. However, many of these patterns do emerge in visualizations, and the innate human ability to see these patterns in graphical depictions represents a valuable oppo ...
