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. NORMAL INCIDENT N-TYPE STRAINED LAYER INGAAS/GAAS MULTIPLE QUANTUM WELL IR DETECTOR ARRAY

    SBC: Alpha Photonics, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Alpha Photonic Inc. (API) proposes, to develop an n-type strained layer InGaAs/GaAs multiple quantum well (MOW) structure for normal incident long wavelength (>12 um) infrared (IR) detection. This structure offers high sensitivity and a fast response time. The detection wavelength can be easily tuned by tailoring the MOW structure. The detection mechanism is based on the coupling of the conduction ...

  2. DIRECT DIGITAL READOUT FOCAL-PLANES FOR PASSIVE SENSORS

    SBC: AMAIN ELECTRONICS CO., INC.            Topic: N/A

    AMAIN Electronics has recently patented an entirely new focal-plane method which directly digitizes the photo-response at each pixel within a monolithic or hybrid focal-plane. This technology is broadly applicable, and offers an opportunity to significantly advance sensor technology across the spectrum from visible to VLWIR, and in a very wide range of military, space, commercial, and evern consum ...

  3. EMBEDDED PIEZO MICRO-SENSOR FOR REAL TIME HEALTH MONITORING OF STRUCTURAL MATERIALS

    SBC: AMERICAN PHOTONICS TECHNOLOGY, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The proposed concept combines the advantages of fiber optic geometry and piezoelectric materials to produce a superior active strain sensor. The sensor will be produced with innovative manufacturing processes of sputtering multi-layered thin films of piezoelectric materials and insulators. Such a sensor, suitable for embedding into structureal composites, would impart real-time monitoring capabili ...

  4. QUASI-WELD-FREE AND NANOCRYSTALLINE APPROACHES TO LONG-LIFE BELLOWS SEALS IN CRYOCOOLERS & OTHER RECIPROCATING MACHINES

    SBC: ANCO ENGINEERS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Two very different approaches to the sealing reliability probelm of reciprocating machines are to be investigated and compared. In one approach, bellows design improvements are the result of combining the excellent dead volume avoidance characteristics of welded bellows with the structural characteristics of formed bellows. Formed bellows avoid both the high strees concentration values and the lar ...

  5. MULTIPLEXING/DEMULTIPLEXING SCHEME FOR LASER COMMUNICATIONS USING RESONANT FARADAY ROTATION

    SBC: AstroTerra Corporation            Topic: N/A

    The primary objective of this research is to develop a novel optical multiplexing/demultiplexing device to combine many separate laser channels for communications applications. For both free space and fiber optic laser communications it is desirable to have a multiplexing scheme which has many channels close together in wavelength (

  7. INTEGRATED CIRCUIT RELIABILITY SIMULATOR

    SBC: Bta Technology, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    BTA Technology, Inc. will transform a prototype circuit reliability simulator into a commercial computer-aided design tool for widespread industrial use. BERT (Berkeley Reliability Tool) is a revolutionary simulator that predicts integrated circuit reliabilty due to the effects of hot carrier induced degradation in MOS and bipolar transistors. Oxide breakdown and interconnect and contact electromi ...

  8. CONTINUOUS OPTICAL FIBERS VIA THE SOL-GEL PROCESS

    SBC: Chemat Technology, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    In this proposed research, an optical fiber is formed by continuously coating a precursor core filament with a glass-forming coating, then removing the volatile filament and densifying the coating. A thorough investigation in coatings on volatile organic fibers or filaments will be carried out. A novel one step technique to make a multimode graded index optical fiber is proposed, and the fiber is ...

  9. Sic Structures Of Arbitrary Shape

    SBC: Com:one            Topic: N/A

    A PROCESS THAT CONVERTS CARBON INTO SILICON CARBIDE HAS BEEN OBSERVED AND USED TO CLAD VARIOUS CARBOON SHAPES. THIS PROCESS CAN BE APPLIED TO ANY CARBON SHAPE INCLUDING COMPLEX SHAPES SUCH AS THREADED PARTS, HELIXES, WINDOWS AND BALLISTIC SHAPES. THE RESULTANT PARTS CAN BE SUBJECTED TO TEMPERATURES GREATER THT 1300 DEGREE C IN AIR WITHOUT PHYSICAL DEGRADATION. THE PROCESS CAN BE APPLIED TO THE MAN ...

  10. PHOTOREFRACTIVE MATERIALS PROCESSING FOR HOLOGRAPHIC DATA STORAGE

    SBC: Com:one Devices Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Holographic data storage based on photorefractive recording materials is a promising approach to overcoming the present I/O bottleneck that exists between high-speed microprocessors and mass storage peripherals. Many of the needed optical systems components (SLMs, CCDs, and tunable dioded lasers) are now available with sufficient performance specifications; however, the lack of a suitable volume r ...
