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. Electrostatically Flocked Graphite Fiber Interface for Thermally Conductive Structural 2D Laminate Graphite Fiber Reinforced Composites

    SBC: EY TECHNOLOGIES            Topic: AF10BT01

    ABSTRACT: The objective of the EY Technologies proposal is to develop a graphite fiber interface on the surface of a 2D graphite unidirectional tape to enhance the thermally conductive and structural properties on all axis of a composite, with emphasis in enhancing the Z-axis. Currently, industry has not been able to make 2D laminate composite from unidirectional materials that simultaneously ...

  2. Nonintrusive fiber interferometer for ablative TPS recession measurement

    SBC: Electrodynamic Applications Inc            Topic: AF10BT04

    ABSTRACT: The next generation of hypersonic and reentry vehicles being designed for the Department of Defense (DoD) applications will require advanced Thermal Protection System (TPS). While new TPS shields are under development, a key difficulty is the ability to predict and diagnose TPS performance. ElectroDynamic Applications (EDA) has been developing an optical diagnosticfor use during testi ...

  3. Theoretical Models of Quantum Conductance on Graphical Processing Units

    SBC: SPECTRAL SCIENCES INC            Topic: AF10BT21

    ABSTRACT: Due to the costs associated with their fabrication, theoretical prediction of conductance in molecular and nano-electronic systems is a cost-effective tool in the design of new devices. Unfortunately, the techniques currently used to treating conductance are computationally expensive, and modeling real systems accurately has been a challenge. We propose to tackle this problem by develop ...

  4. Highly Directional Infrared Emission and Transmission

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: AF10BT30

    ABSTRACT: In this STTR program, Agiltron and Iowa State University (ISU) jointly propose to develop simple material and structural solutions that enable directionally dependent emission in the infrared regime. The highly directional infrared emission has extremely narrow emission patterns and a large difference between high and low emission states. In the Phase I program, the structure will be fa ...

  5. Solution Printed OTFT Driven Infrared Detectors

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: AF11BT05

    ABSTRACT: Leveraging Agiltron"s organic thin film transistor (OTFT) array design and printing technology and industrial leading developments and productions uncooled mid-infrared (mid-IR) detectors and detector arrays, we propose to develop a new class of high performance printed mid-IR detectors and detector arrays with integrated OTFT-based drive electronics. The approach is closely coupled w ...

  6. Novel Gas-Diffusion Electrodes for Carbon Dioxide Electroreduction

    SBC: GINER INC            Topic: AF11BT07

    ABSTRACT: As security of fossil fuel sources is diminishing, the generation of synthetic fuels may constitute a significant strategic capability for the USAF. GES and the INL propose novel catalysts and electrochemical cell components for the electroreduction of carbon dioxide to syngas. Catalyst composition will be formulated to optimize both product selectivity and cell efficiency. A prelimina ...

  7. MOF based Catalyst for Electrochemical Reduction of Carbon Dioxide

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF11BT07

    ABSTRACT: The efficient production of fuels from carbon dioxide waste would be revolutionary. Catalysts are needed to provide the electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide to liquid fuels. PSI proposes to covalently bind an efficient, high rate rhenium based homogeneous catalyst into a nanoporous cathode for the electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide. Because the 2 ...

  9. Ultra-High Density Ion Propulsion From Ionic Liquids

    SBC: BUSEK CO., INC.            Topic: AF11BT10

    ABSTRACT: Busek Co. Inc. and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) propose to explore the physical limits of ionic liquid propulsion via development of new theory to explain effects of close packing density and to predict performance limits. The research is motivated by observations and tests demonstrating that emission from 2-dimensional porous surfaces yields order of magnitude greater e ...

  10. IP Satellite Network Architecture for Effective TCP Performance

    SBC: SCIENTIFIC SYSTEMS CO INC            Topic: AF11BT12

    ABSTRACT: Satellite networks provide high bandwidth global communications without relying on existing infrastructure. Current satellite system use is impeded by round trip delays and limited ground access points. Future IP based LEO/MEO satellite networks offer smaller delays and flexible, high capability communications. Propagation delays, highly dynamic links, higher error rates, dynamic sat ...
