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. Instrumentation for Monitoring Breath Biomarkers for Diagnosis of Health, Condition, Toxic Exposure, and Disease

    SBC: Arete Associates            Topic: AF04T017

    Arete Associates and National Jewish Medical and Research Center propose to develop an instrument to measure the concentration of ethane in exhaled breath. The analyzer uses the combination of a proprietary hollow optical waveguide measurement cell, tunable semiconductor laser, and wavelength modulation spectroscopy to provide sensitive and reliable measurements of ethane. The sensor will exhibi ...

  2. A High Resolution Evanescent Wave Velocity Sensor for Liquid and Gas Flow in Microfluidics

    SBC: VIOSENSE CORP.            Topic: AF04T024

    This project proposes to design and build an advanced evanescent velocity sensor for near wall velocity measurements in microfluidic devices. Optical MEMS technology will be utilized to create a compact sensor design. The sensor will measure velocities within 100 nm of the channel wall, which is five times closer than the best current technique. The sensor will have a spatial resolution of 100 nm ...

  3. 3 Dimensional Nano-Scale Reinforcement Architecture for Advanced Composite Structures

    SBC: Carbon Solutions Inc            Topic: AF04T020

    This STTR Phase I project will focus on fabricating 3-D multi-scale macro/nanocomposites with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) integrated in carbon fiber preforms. The incorporation of nanoscale CNTs and conventional micro-scale carbon fibers into the polymer matrix will lead to a hierarchy of the reinforcement scales, ranging from a single fiber surrounded by a nanocomposite sheath to a bundle of fibers w ...

  4. Waveguide coupled high speed plasmon optical modulator

    SBC: ITN ENERGY SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: AF04T013

    Silicon is the dominant material for electronic devices, but basic material properties have limited its use for optical devices. Passive components such as waveguides, splitters and multiplexers have been demonstrated on silicon wafers. Most active photonic devices have been made with materials such as gallium arsenide that cannot be grown directly on silicon electronics. The development of act ...

  5. All-Nitrogen or High-Nitrogen Compounds as High Energy Density Materials

    SBC: FLUOROCHEM, INC.            Topic: AF04T003

    All-nitrogen compounds, also known as polynitrogen compounds, or nitrogen-rich compounds, such as polyazides, store large amounts of energy that can be released when these materials decompose to molecular nitrogen. The synthesis of these materials is very challenging because the reactants, intermediates, and desired products have high endothermicities. These high endothermicities make many of the ...

  6. Cooperative Tracking of Moving Targets by Teams of Autonomous Unmanned Air Vehicles

    SBC: MLB Company            Topic: AF04T011

    Teams of low cost unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with autonomous behaviors will be capable of performing inexpensive, persistent distributed sensing functions. One application of interest is the use of UAV teams to perform Cooperative Search, Acquisition and Tracking (CSAT) of moving ground targets in a stealthy manner. Current state-of-the-art for autonomous control of UAV teams enables the col ...
