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. Production Methods and Software for NIST Calibration Phantoms

    SBC: SIGMA K CORP            Topic: 9050868TT

    Currently, there are over 10,000 MRI scanners used in the US alone. US citizens today are mobile and many times medical treatments may require MRI scans from several different facilities. Images from MRI scanners can also drift over time. There is a tremendous need for all medical imaging scanners to be on the same level. Sigma-K will develop the commercialization of the ISMRM/NIST MRI Calibration ...

  2. Anion Exchange Resins for Chirality-based Separation of Single-wall Carbon Nanotubes

    SBC: Sepax Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 9060663R

    Single chirality of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is critical for their superb mechanical, thermal, optical and electronic properties. All known methods for producing nanotubes give mixtures of tubes with different chiralities. Physical separation of SWCNT by chirality is thus an enabling step for many potential applications and fundamental studies. The existing anion exchange resins are ...

  3. Wave Energy Harvesting System

    SBC: Peregrine Power LLC            Topic: 812SG

    The applicant will develop a wave energy harvesting system for NOAA buoys. It will ve entirely self-contained (no protruding elements), modular, scalable, and easily deployed. The system employs a unique, inertial mechanism that responds to acceleration forces created by waves. This mechanism will be combined with (1) a proprietary generator that is sensitive to very low levels of torque and ha ...

  4. High Efficiency Commercial Refrigeration Motors

    SBC: QM Power, Inc.            Topic: 01a

    Refrigeration and air conditioning in buildings, industry, and transportation account for approximately 10 quads of U.S. primary energy consumption. Motors power the equipment and control the environment in advanced cooling applications and thus their energy consumption represents a significant part of their operating and life cycle costs.Fan motors for heating, cooling and ventilation run the mos ...

  5. SBIR Topic 6b: Advanced High Power Density Generators for Hydropower Systems

    SBC: QM Power, Inc.            Topic: 06b

    Today, conventional hydropower generation accounts for 75% of the United States renewable energy generation (over 270,000 GWH) despite utilizing less than 20% of the usable hydropower available for development. Recent studies indicate that advances in lower cost higher performing generator technologies can substantially increase this resource utilization. Just a 5% increase in market penetration w ...

  6. Ionic Liquid Membrane Contactor for CO2 Capture

    SBC: COMPACT MEMBRANE SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: 09d

    Fossil fuels currently supply more than 85% of the worlds energy needs with the ensuing generation of 80% of all anthropogenic emissions of carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas is considered to be a major contributor to global warming. There is a concerted effort towards capturing carbon dioxide at the source of generation and sequestering the gas. However, with existing technologies ...

  7. Advanced Battery Recycling

    SBC: ONTO TECHNOLOGY, LLC            Topic: 10a

    Advanced recycling of lithium-ion battery materials has potential to significantly reduce material costs. Current recycling technology is expensive and melts or dissolves batteries for valuable elements, leaving no potential for direct secondary material use for battery applications. These old technologies pursue elements such as cobalt or nickel and destroy valuable organic and inorganic material ...

  8. Geophysical Monitoring of In-Situ Oil Shale Retorting

    SBC: SKY RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: 28b

    US oil shale reserves contain a vast carbon energy source which if produced in an economically feasible and environmentally safe manner - would provide part of the solution for future US energy needs. While no commercial production of oil shales currently occurs, in situ retorting is generally regarded as the most likely approach. Optimal and environmentally safe in situ retorting will require kn ...

  9. Wafer-Scale Geiger-mode Silicon Photomultiplier Arrays Fabricated Using Domestic CMOS Fab

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: 61a

    There is a need for developing a high-performance single photon avalanche photodiode (SPAD) detector array design, which can be fabricated using a domestic, high-volume commercial CMOS process on 200mm or greater wafers. Many of todays silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) devices are fabricated using dedicated fabs with custom processes. Current SiPM designs also have variable breakdown voltage, high da ...

  10. Digital Silicon Photomultiplier Array Readout Integrated Circuits

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: 63a

    Silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) have recently gained considerable interest as replacements for photomultiplier tubes. Like photomultiplier tubes, they are capable of measuring extremely low light levels, to the point of being able to detect single photons. However, compared to photomultiplier tubes, SiPMs offer the further solidstate advantages of lower operating voltages, ruggedness, smaller phy ...
