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. 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 ...

  2. Raw Data Generation Tool for X-ray Security Imaging Systems

    SBC: Telesecurity Sciences, Inc.            Topic: HSB0141003

    The X-ray intensity as measured by detectors depends on all aspects of the imaging system ranging from the source spectrum to various scatter events during the photon transport. The proposed simulator models the entire X-ray detection process from photon generation to various scatter events to the eventual detection of transmitted/scattered photons. In particular, the simulator models the two impo ...

  3. Metrology for Industry for use in the Manufacture of Grazing Incidence Beam Line Mirrors

    SBC: InSync, Inc.            Topic: 04c

    Innovative, fast, ultraprecise and affordable metrology instruments are needed to ensure that grazing incidence optics can meet emerging requirements for DOE Basic Energy Sciences (BES) synchrotron and FEL x-ray light sources. Currently, there is not a suitable instrument available in the United States that will allow manufacturers to produce such demanding optics. This PH I SBIR will focus on de ...

  4. Electro-optic jitter and pulse characterization for X-ray free-electron laser sources

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 08b

    Mesa Photonics proposes a new method for online diagnostics at x-ray free electron laser facilities. This diagnostic can be fully automated, switching among alignment, jitter measurements, and pulse characterization. In this SBIR project, Mesa Photonics will develop a new diagnostic for measuring the time arrival between optical and x-ray ultrafast pulses. This technology is critical for the dev ...

  5. Enhanced Dropwise Condensation for Improved Dry Cooling Efficiency

    SBC: ADVANCED COOLING TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: 14d

    Industrial and utility applications utilizing dry cooling for condensing process steam are less efficient than their closed-loop cooling counterparts, resulting in higher energy consumption and operating costs. However, dry cooling is a necessary process in areas where cooling water supply is not available due to competing demands for water. The inefficiencies in dry cooling are largely due to ...

  6. Inexpensive instrument for in situ cloud droplet/drizzle characterization

    SBC: VISTA PHOTONICS, INC.            Topic: 17e

    Stratus and stratocumulus clouds with low drop concentration and large drop diameter are scientifically very important, because this is the regime in which drizzle drops are formed. The formation of drizzle can lead to a rapid modification of the cloud droplet size distribution, which in turn has a strong influence on the cloud & apos;s radiative properties. Because stratus and stratocumulus cl ...

  7. Portable nitrous oxide sensor for understanding agricultural and soil emissions

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: 18c

    Nitrous oxide is the third most important greenhouse gas (GHG,) with an atmospheric lifetime of ~114 years and a global warming impact ~300 times greater than that of CO2. The main cause of nitrous oxides atmospheric increase is anthropogenic emissions, and over 80% of the current global anthropogenic flux is related to agriculture, including associated land-use change. An accurate assessment of N ...

  8. A Climate Impact Assessment Service to Support Urban and Regional Planning

    SBC: Azavea Inc.            Topic: 19a

    The increase in extreme weather events over the past several decades has underscored the need for regional planning strategies that will support future preparedness and mitigate climate change impact on local communities across the United States. While existing climate modeling tools for non-researchers support a conceptual understanding of climate change at the global level, they do not address t ...

  9. Climate Change Information System for Business and Industry

    SBC: PRESCIENT WEATHER LTD            Topic: 19a

    The Climate Change Information System for Business and Industry (Climate Biz) will translate information derived from climate model simulations into industry-specific formats that will assist private sector executives and their firms to meet the challenge of climate change and thereby prosper in the decades ahead. The opportunity is two-fold. The private sector needs industry-specific informati ...

  10. Rapid isotopic analysis using heterodyne laser induced breakdown spectroscopy

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 24a

    Isotopic analysis of suspect materials is an effective tool for identifying and characterizing nuclear. Isotope ratios of uranium, plutonium, lithium, and hydrogen are particularly informative for distinguishing fuel for nuclear power plants from weapons-grade material. Existing instrumentation capable of measuring isotope ratios to high precision and accuracy is expensive, bulky, and requires ...
