The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

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. Operational Sand and Particulate Sensor System for Aircraft Gas Turbine Engines

    SBC: HAL Technology, LLC            Topic: N18AT023

    Gas turbine engines with prolonged exposure to sand and dust are susceptible to component and performance degradation and ultimately engine failure. Our proposed sensor will use an innovative hybrid and complimentary discrimination approach to incorporate material identification along with capability of size, size distributions, and concentration while maintaining the same form factor of the curre ...

  2. Tunable interferometer in SiN

    SBC: NEXUS PHOTONICS INC            Topic: N21BT019

    We propose to develop tunable, high-power handling, low-loss phase-to-amplitude conversion photonic-integrated circuit (PIC) based device on heterogeneous SiN platform. The use of SiN for waveguide is the key to meet the stringent requirements, while additional heterogeneously integrated components are the key to enable tuning and locking of the phase-to-amplitude device. Nexus Photonics, realizi ...

  3. Hemp-based Fabric for Military Uniforms

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N21AT001

    Hemp fibers have been used in textile applications for thousands of years, but have been limited to textiles for home furnishing, rope, sacks, and other non-clothing textile applications. However, new treatment methods for hemp fibers to improve their hand, as well hemp’s general softening properties with time and wear, make these fibers attractive for use in performance clothing due to hemp’s ...

  4. Analysis and Modeling of Erosion in Gas-Turbine Grade Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs)

    SBC: ALPHASTAR TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS LLC            Topic: N19BT033

    A significant barrier to the insertion of ceramic matrix composite (CMC) materials into advanced aircraft engines is their inherent degradation under erosion and post erosion. Our team will develop and demonstrate a physics-based model for erosion/post erosion of CMC’s at room and elevated temperatures (RT/ET). The ICME (Integrated Computational Material Engineering) Physics based Multi Scale Mo ...

  5. REBCO Tapes with Enhanced Current Sharing Characteristics for Quench Mitigation

    SBC: AMPEERS LLC            Topic: N21AT007

    The remarkably superior current densities of RE-Ba-Cu-O (REBCO, RE = rare earth) tapes enable high power density and highly efficient electric machines that directly address the needs of the Navy’s Advanced Power Systems. At such high current densities sustained through just 1 µm thick film, the superconductor is susceptible to localized heating at defective spots that are invariably present in ...

  6. Passive Acoustic Cued Electro-Optical (ACE-O) Detect and Avoid For sUAS

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC APPLICATIONS & RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, INC.            Topic: N21AT003

    Detecting and Avoiding (DAA) manned aircraft from small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) remains the unsolved problem for safe integration of sUAS into civil airspaces where Navy UAS must pay Due Regard to the laws of civil aviation. The difficulties are manifold. The solution requires both ultra-low SWaP sensors that track aircraft over long ranges, providing 360o field-of-regard (FOR), and often ...

  7. Combined Electro-Optics/Infrared and Radar Sensor System for Detect and Avoid of Non-Cooperative Traffic for Small Unmanned Aerial Systems

    SBC: RDRTEC INCORPORATED            Topic: N21AT003

    RDRTec proposes performing feasibility trade studies of combining Electro-Optics/Infrared (EOIR) with active radar into a Detect And Avoid (DAA) system for Non-Cooperative Traffic that jointly enables sufficient performance within the Size Weight and Power and Cooling (SWaPC) of Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS) such as the RQ-7 Shadow or RQ-21 Blackjack. The hypothesis addressed by this study ...

  8. Commercial Scale Methods for Reclamation and Reuse of Carbon Fiber

    SBC: TEXAS RESEARCH INSTITUTE , AUSTIN, INC.            Topic: N21AT002

    One of the biggest challenges associated with fiber-reinforced composites is their recycling, which is exacerbated by the large quantity of rejected parts in aerospace and automotive industry. Various recycling techniques for carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites have been developed; these include: mechanical processes (mainly grinding), thermal recycling, and solvolysis. Thermal recyc ...

  9. The use of modulated radiation pressure in target detection and classification

    SBC: HEAT, LIGHT, AND SOUND RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N21AT010

    Both acoustic and electromagnetic waves exert forces of radiation on targets in their path of propagation. The radiation force (pressure) results from the change in wave momentum due to scattering by the target, averaged over one period of oscillation.  Modulated radiation pressure (MRP) utilizes the acoustic radiation force by using a double-sided suppressed carrier modulated (DSB-SCM) incident ...

  10. Novel Thermal Management Solutions for Advanced Power Converter Applications

    SBC: PC KRAUSE & ASSOCIATES INC            Topic: N21AT012

    Advancements in electronic warfare driven by sophisticated sensors and weapons are pushing shipboard power distribution systems to higher voltage, more power dense solutions. Reduced cost and increased flexibility necessitate solutions that are rapidly scalable and are characterized by longer life and lower maintenance. These objectives are in conflict, as increased power density reduces life and ...
