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. Surface-Enhanced Detection of Molecular and Biomolecular Species

    SBC: BIOTOOLS, INC.            Topic: AF05T025

    This Phase I STTR will demonstrate the feasibility of near-infrared (near-IR) excited surface-enhanced Raman optical activity (SEROA) as a sensitive new probe of biological molecules and trace chiral materials. The research will use nanoshells as fabricated and optimized at Rice University as a newly developed, tunable, highly-uniform, SERS substrates for chiral molecules and bio-molecules. The ...

  2. Advanced Antenna Pattern Prediction Software

    SBC: CHEW CONSULTING, INC.            Topic: AF05T018

    We propose to develop advanced antenna pattern prediction software using fast algorithm for integral equation. The software will be developed from first principle integral equation solver accelerated by the multi-level fast multipole algorithm. Material effects will be included using volume integral equation and a newly developed thin dielectric sheet model. The model entails full physics, a ...

  3. Thermoelectrically Cooled MWIR Avalanche Photodiodes on Silicon Substrates

    SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: AF04T021

    Modern Air Force weapon systems need to detect, recognize and track a variety of targets under a wide spectrum of atmospheric conditions. Recent technology developments are paving the way toward imaging optical radars with wavelengths in MWIR range for these applications. The best suited detectors for optical radars are the avalanche photodiodes (APDs) due to their high gain-bandwidth characterist ...

  4. Demonstration of High Power, High-Brightness IR (1.8-1.9 µm) Strain-Compensated InGaAsP/InGaAs QW Laser Arrays

    SBC: EpiWorks, Inc.            Topic: AF04010

    In this work, we will demonstrate military specification compatible 1.8 - 1.85 µm InP-based diode pump laser arrays with a power output exceeding 10 W, the critical milestone necessary to enabling system insertion. These sources can help in the critical development of a variety of military and home security applications, including optical pumping sources for 3-5 µm lasers, chemical sensing, las ...

  5. Next-Generation 30-45% Efficient Multi-Junction Solar Cell

    SBC: EpiWorks, Inc.            Topic: AF05023

    We will demonstrate novel, Si-based technology for ultra-lightweight, high-efficiency, triple junction solar cells. Next-generation satellites require increased payload mass and power budget capabilities. Ultra lightweight, 40% efficient solar cells employing Silicon substrates will reduce array size and solar cell payload mass while still enabling power level scale-up. Our advanced, next gener ...

  6. High Speed Readout for Photodiode Focal Plane Arrays

    SBC: EpiWorks, Inc.            Topic: AF05223

    The objective of this proposal is to design a high-speed readout for photodiode focal plane arrays with sub-nanosecond sampling rates. For active sensing applications, current architectures using CMOS technology can sample up to 400 MHz (2.5 ns). However, photodetectors with bandwidth over 1 GHz, and sampling rates in excess of 1 GHz (less than 1 ns), are needed for numerous battlefield applicatio ...

  7. A Tool for Computationally Steering Optimization Software

    SBC: MSSRC            Topic: AF05250

    Computational steering consists of determining initial parameters for a problem and monitoring progress of software in order to stop the process if the calculation is not proceeding well. The "operator" then resets parameters based on some measure and restarts the compuutation. This process is repeated until the desired result is obtained or a critical limit is achieved. The purpose of this pro ...

  8. Imidazenil: A Protective Agent Against Chemical Warfare Agents induced Status Epilepticus

    SBC: NEUPHARMA, INC.            Topic: CBD05116

    The overall objective of this proposal is to demonstrated that imidazenil is a more potent and safer protective agent than diazepam against chemical warfare nerve agent (CWNA)-induced seizure/status epilepticus, neuropathology, and neurobehavioral deficits. Thus we will compare the dose-dependent efficacy of imidazenil or diazepam administered alone and in combination with levetiracetam in protect ...

  9. Enabling Technologies for Free Space Quantum Cryptography

    SBC: NUCRYPT LLC            Topic: AF04103

    In this SBIR project we aim to exploit a new invention in quantum cryptography to secure free-space optical links and networks. Unlike the techniques based on single-photon states that are limited to low bit rates and short distances, our approach is based on coherent states emitted by ordinary lasers, permitting scaling to high speeds and deployment over realistic distances. We have already demon ...

  10. Continuous Variable Quantum Encryption using Short Laser Pulses

    SBC: NUCRYPT LLC            Topic: AF05T007

    The use of optical technology in both terrestrial and space-based wireless links has compelling advantages in terms of data rate, power consumption, weight, and size of the system. However, with the adoption of such technology, we have become heavily reliant on high data rate optical communication systems for our economy and national security. It is thus prudent to give careful consideration to th ...
