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. Multi-Lingual Federated Search

    SBC: Deep Web Technologies, Llc            Topic: 41

    DOE research is hindered by the fact that much quality scientific information is not published in English. No mechanism exists for researchers to search for foreign language documents in their native language, with automatic translation of results and documents. A multi-lingual federated search environment is proposed that allows for searching and viewing of result lists and documents in a number ...

  2. Source Selection Optimization

    SBC: Deep Web Technologies, Llc            Topic: 41

    It is difficult for DOE researchers to keep apprised of relevant scientific information given its rapid rate of growth. No mechanism exists to automatically discover, configure access to, or select sources for searching. This project will develop a suite of applications that discover new information sources, build federated search query interfaces to them, and automatically select relevant sources ...

  3. Automated Categorization of Web-Based Content Along Multiple Dimensions

    SBC: Deep Web Technologies, Llc            Topic: 54a

    Both private companies and government agencies are faced with an enormous amount of text documents that are distributed over a network of computers and databases. Searching for specific documents is essential to the success of these organizations. Websites such as ScienceEducation.gov indicate that it is beneficial for content to be categorized to make it easier for users to find relevant informat ...

  4. Leveraging Wikipedia to Create a Comprehensive Science & Technology Encyclopedia

    SBC: Deep Web Technologies, Llc            Topic: 54a

    The Department of Energy provides scientists, researchers, and the public with search engine access to high quality scientific and technical content. Because much of the content is highly technical in nature, many users require encyclopedia-quality background information. This project will develop and deploy software that integrates the best scientific and technical reference articles from Wikiped ...

  5. High Performance Permanent Magnets for Advanced Motors

    SBC: ELECTRON ENERGY CORP            Topic: 05d

    Better permanent magnets are needed to improve the performance of advanced motors for hybrid electric vehicles. In response to this need, this project will develop high performance permanent magnets with improved magnetic properties at temperatures up to 240 degrees C, high electrical resistivity to reduce eddy current losses in advanced motor applications, and low cost. In Phase I, feasibility ...

  6. Nano-Scale High-Surface-Area Thermal and Conductive Ceramics as Effectice Support for Metal Oxide Catalysts in Alkane Selective Oxidation

    SBC: Evernu Technology, Llc            Topic: 07

    Compared with conventional processes used to produce many oxygenated chemicals, processes based on the selective catalytic oxidation of alkanes to produce oxygenates could yield enormous economic, energy, and environmental benefits. However, commercial development of such processes has been hindered, in part, because the excessive heat released by alkane oxidation causes over-oxidation (burning) ...

  7. Development of an Accessory Protein for use in the Pre-Treatment of Cellulosic Feedstocks

    SBC: Expansyn Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 13a

    Due to the economics, politics and environmental impacts of petroleum use, there is growing interest in the use of biomass to partially replace petroleum as an energy source. However, in order to utilize biomass as a feedstock for the production of fuel or chemical products, its structure needs to be significantly altered to facilitate the efficient completion of downstream steps. This alteration ...

  8. Silicon Nanowire Solar Cell

    SBC: Illuminex Corporation            Topic: 10c

    It is now an accepted fact that global warming due to greenhouse gases is occurring and could have a devastating effect for future life on earth. The need for the United States to plan, develop, and implement alternative, clean energy technologies is critical. In particular, the photovoltaic generation of electricity from the sun is a sustainable, elegant, clean, and practical source of usable e ...

  9. Continuous Wire Extrusion Enables Improved Performance of Nb3Sn Superconductor

    SBC: Innovare, Inc.            Topic: 51a

    Improvements to the superconducting magnets used in high energy physics experiments will depend on increasing the critical current density and stability of Nb3Sn superconductor wire. Major improvements in the performance of Nb3Sn wire can be achieved by reducing the effective filament size, deff, in order to reduce flux jumping and magnet instability. The deff can be reduced by increasing the numb ...

  10. Development of Separators for Lithium-Ion Cells with High Temperature Melt Integrity

    SBC: MAX POWER INC            Topic: 11b

    While lithium-ion batteries are rapidly penetrating the laptop and cell-phone markets because of their high specific energy, safety is one of the key challenges to be addressed before lithium-ion batteries can replace the nickel-metal-hydride batteries that are commonly used in today¿s Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs). The major safety concern is the possibility of an internal short-circuit, due t ...
