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. Thermal Isolation of Nozzle Exit Cone Insulators

    SBC: MENTIS SCIENCES INC            Topic: MDA12027

    To address the issue of heat transfer from the rocket motor nozzle exit cone into the metal support housing MSI proposes to apply a well-developed, highly insulating interlayer material, quartz polysiloxane Qz/Ps, between the exit cone surface and the metal substructure surface to maintain that surface below 150 degrees F. MSI has tested this material for fabrication of a number of high performan ...

  2. Contamination-Free, Lightweight, Helium-Rubidium Vapor Circulation System

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: MDA12018

    Diode-Pumped Alkali Laser Systems (DPALS) have great potential for missile defense and other applications. These systems require a uniform, steady, flowing mixture of helium and rubidium vapor at elevated pressure and temperature. Significant challenges exist because rubidium is a very reactive material. In response, our team proposes to develop a contamination-free, all-metal, hermetic, circul ...

  3. A Scheme to Reduce Dark Current in SLS FPAs

    SBC: QMAGIQ LLC            Topic: MDA11005

    Longwave infrared focal plane arrays (FPAs) based on Type-II InAs/GaSb-based strained layer superlattice (SLS) photodiodes show good performance at the current time. A key remaining challenge is the reduction of dark current, dominated by pixel surface leakage in FPAs and low minority carrier lifetime in the bulk material. We propose to address the former in this Phase I and develop a unique sche ...

  4. Thin-Walled HfN Components for KKV Divert and Attitude Control Systems

    SBC: EXOTHERMICS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    This proposal addresses BMDOOs requirement for enhancing the affordability and performance characteristics of kinetic kill vehicles (KKVs) by recommending a program to investigate the use of hafnium nitride-based divert and attitude control system (DACS)components. In this program, thin-walled HfN liners will be fabricated in net-shape fashion via gas phase nitridation of hafnium articles. Syst ...

  5. Monolithic Titanium Nitride for KKV Rocket Nozzle Throats

    SBC: EXOTHERMICS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The quest for lower cost components and higher performance propulsion systems in Kinetic Kill Vehicles motivates the investigation of low cost, highly oxidation/erosion resistant materials for nozzle throats and other hot gas path applications.Exothermics has recently conducted tests of HfN components with encouraging results. These results indicate that oxide melting point may not be a critical ...

  6. A Low-Cost IR-Enhanced Video System for Early Obstacle Warning

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: N/A

    More than 6,000,000 auto accidents occur in the U.S. each year, with about one third resulting in injury and 40,000 resulting in fatality. Approximately thirteen percent of these crashes involve pedestrians. A much broader group of generalized roadway obstacles including pedestrians, other automobiles and non-fixed objects, is responsible for over ninety percent of the accidents. A reasonably p ...

  8. LWIR Spectral Sensor for Hard Body and Decoy Identification

    SBC: SOLID STATE SCIENTIFIC CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    Spectral sensing is emerging as an enabling missile defense technology for hard bodytracking and identification. Multiple samples of the spectra from hard body targetsassist in determining the target temperature and become inputs to discrimination andidentification algorithms. These targets are not burning and are potentially at ornear room temperature; hence, the ideal hard body sensor operates i ...

  9. Solid State Imaging LADAR Photoreceiver with Internal Detector Gain

    SBC: SOLID STATE SCIENTIFIC CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    A lightweight, low-cost, internal detector gain, solid state imaging LADAR receiveris proposed. This photodetector has the advantage of increased optical gain withdecreased incident power. This detector characteristic is attractive for LADARapplications with weak target signals. In phase I, the LADAR specific detector willbe modeled and tested. In Phase II, the semiconductor-based internal gainpho ...
