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. Innovative TBC Blade Imaging System for Surface Temperature Mapping

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF04288

    Sensors are vital during advanced turbine engine development testing. Essential data expedite engine development programs and accordingly bring new advanced propulsion and ground-power engines to market sooner. Ceramic thermal barrier coating (TBC) on first-stage turbine blades is now a vital component of advanced engines under development for future military aircraft, protecting the metal alloy b ...

  2. Distributed System for Field Detection of Stray Energy from Laser Weapons

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF05313

    A number of high-energy laser weapons currently under development by and for the U.S. military will provide our armed forces with capabilities that are unmatched by conventional armaments. Laser weapons allow targets to be destroyed from remote locations without the delays associated with the transit of typical missiles and artillery shells. However, during engagement the laser radiation reflect ...

  3. Propulsion System Performance and Health Monitor

    SBC: ADVANCED FUEL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF05192

    The innovation proposed is a flight-worthy optical sensor that will monitor propulsion system performance and health characteristics, including identifying the onset of combustion instability, in air-breathing engines such as turbojets and ramjets. It is an innovation for three reasons: 1) the sensing is performed in the hot exhaust flow at the back of the engine instead of at the flame-front in t ...

  4. Thermal Battery with Low Internal Operating Temperatures for Missle Applications

    SBC: Mobile Energy Products, Inc.            Topic: AF04186

    Thermal batteries use a number of halide-based electrolytes, such as LiCl-KCl eutectics, that have an operational temperature range from 350°C to over 550°C. Such high temperatures can be unacceptable if there are temperature-sensitive electronics adjacent to the battery. In a Phase I SBIR effort we have identified and tested battery systems with operational temperatures in the 120°C to 228.5 ...

  5. CFD Fuel Injector Design Tool Applicable To High-Pressure Vitiated Augmentor Flow

    SBC: Flow Parametrics, LLC            Topic: AF04293

    Liquid fuel injection into heated and vitiated cross flows, at elevated pressures, will be investigated experimentally and through numerical simulations. Experimental efforts will include advanced optical measurements of liquid spray parameters at positions close to the injection site, as well as downstream. Liquid spray modeling will include first-principles, physics-bsaed modeling of liquid brea ...

  6. High Temperature Sm(Co,Fe,Cu,Zr)z/Fe-Co Nanocomposite Permanent Magnets with High Energy Density

    SBC: INFRAMAT CORP            Topic: AF05T024

    Air Force seeks innovative permanent magnets for high temperature application in air and space vehicles. This requires the use of novel permanent magnets with high coercivity and saturation magnetization up to 450oC with an energy product of 30 MGOe. Inframat Corporation proposes to demonstrate the feasibility of fabricating an exchange-spring coupled Sm(Co,Fe,Cu,Zr)z/Co-Fe nanocomposite permanen ...

  7. High Bandwidth Optoelectronic Data Interfaces for Satellites

    SBC: OPEL            Topic: AF04043

    A highly efficient optoelectronic (OE) interface is an essential element for satellite data interfaces. The emphasis is on high speed, low power and radiation-hardening. Key to the performance is the transponder subsystem consisting of the photoreceiver (detector , TIA and decision circuit), the clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit consisting of phase detector and voltage controlled oscillator (V ...

  8. Optoelectronic control technology for Phased Arrays.

    SBC: OPEL            Topic: AF05040

    Phased arrays are critical for surveillance and tracking. Current TR modules use numerous MMIC chips, ferrite circulators and phase shifters and quasi-optical true-time-delay (TTD). A major power requirement is distribution and synchronization of the T/R function across multiple RF interfaces. Large scale integration could address the problem of interconnecting boards with GHZ RF outputs but is c ...

  9. High Frequency Optoelectronc Oscillator

    SBC: OPEL            Topic: AF05043

    Clocks and pulse sources are essential elements for radar systems. Timing control determines total system operation and the fundamental limitation for next generation sub-systems is clock jitter (phase noise). For multi GB/s systems, the clear choice is an optoelectronic oscillator in which the clock period is an optical delay. The phase noise is thereby reduced because the variability of the del ...

  10. Chip-to-Chip Optical Interconnects Using Integrated Photonic Crystal Lightwave Circuits

    SBC: OPTICOMP CORP.            Topic: AF03T021

    The goal of this Phase II STTR program is to develop photonic crystal (PC) technologies which can enable photonic lightwave circuits (PLC¡¦s) that are monolithically integrable with optoelectronic devices and wafers, thereby providing a new technology platform for the heterogeneous integration of photonic and optoelectronic functions. This can significantly increase the density of lightwave circ ...
