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. Development of Multidisciplinary, Multi-Fidelity Analysis and Integration of Aerospace Vehicles

    SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION            Topic: AF08BT03

    Aurora Flight Sciences, in collaboration with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), proposes an innovative method for representing and managing multidisciplinary design information from a wide range of analysis tools.  The practical implication resulting from this novel approach is a mathematical framework that can be used to confidently determine the level of analysis fidelity require ...

  4. Physics-Based Control Technology for Augmentor Screech Suppression

    SBC: AURORA FLIGHT SCIENCES CORPORATION            Topic: AF08BT15

    High frequency combustion instabilities in gas turbine thrust augmentors (called screech) are detrimental to performance and limit operational flexibility, but are unavoidable due to the nature of augmentor operation and design.  Present approaches to screech suppression via passive control provide acoustic damping over limited bandwidth, while active control methods are impractical for flight ap ...

  6. Electrical power generation for sustained high speed flight

    SBC: CELLULAR MATERIALS INTERNATIONAL, INC.            Topic: AF08BT25

    This proposal seeks to develop a novel method for the extraction of significant electrical power from air breathing hypersonic vehicles by using the existing large temperature differential between the surface of the material inside the SCRAM engine and the temperature of the fuel which is also being used to cool that surface. Thermionic conversion is an attractive approach for power extraction sin ...

  7. High-Temperature Environmental Barrier Coating for Silicon Carbide Composites

    SBC: Directed Vapor Technologies International, Inc.            Topic: AF08BT21

    Advanced thermal/environmental barrier coating (T/EBC) systems are desired to protect Si-based ceramics in high temperature, water vapor containing environments. In this work, we will use novel coating synthesis techniques that enable the economical deposition of enhanced T/EBCs having higher temperature capability, improved durability and better erosion resistance than that of current state-of-th ...

  8. Miniaturized Thermal Harvesting System

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: AF07T001

    The Air Force has an immediate need for powering remote wireless sensor networks (WSN) on aircraft platforms. These WSN systems are needed for monitoring engine emissions/conditions, evaluating structural integrity, and supplying remote sensing capabilities in support of ongoing battlefield activities.   However, aircraft sensors are generally inaccessible and frequent battery replacement or sch ...

  9. Photonic NerveBond System for Enhanced Nerve Repair

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: AF07T033

    Military trauma can result in peripheral nerve injury, including nerve laceration, requiring surgical reattachment.  Surgical repair involves excising the damaged section of the nerve, leaving a gap that must be bridged to recover nerve function. Standard of care for segmental nerve injury is to fill the gap with a donor nerve graft.  This leads to increased treatment time and loss of donor sigh ...
