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. Near Surface Flow Control Using Magnetohydrodynamics in High Mach Number Flight

    SBC: ACREE TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED            Topic: AF05T016

    The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the effectiveness of a Cathodic Arc Plasma Sources (CAPS) and Power Processing Unit (PPU) for producing dense, high current (> 1 amp) plasma flows for magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) control of hypersonic flight surfaces. The CAPS source and PPU were developed for aerospace applications and have been optimized for weight and efficiency. The main advantage of ...

  2. A Novel Process of CNTs/Al2O3 Hybrid Ceramics

    SBC: Chemat Technology, Inc.            Topic: AF05T023

    Carbon nanotubes possess extraordinary mechanical, thermal and electrical properties. Attempts have been made to develop advanced engineering materials with improved or novel properties through the incorporation of carbon nanotubes in selected matrices (polymers, metals and ceramics). Recently, the use of carbon nanotubes to reinforce ceramic composites has made exciting progress. However, oxida ...

  7. Multistage Electromagnetic and Laser Launch Systems for Affordable, Rapid Access to Space

    SBC: LAUNCHPOINT TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: AF05T001

    EM space launch has proven difficult and expensive to achieve. One approach to reduce the difficulty is to limit projectile velocities achieved by the launcher and augment them with laser propulsion, as suggested in this solicitation, reducing peak power by a factor of four or so. We offer a different approach that will reduce peak power by four orders of magnitude. We propose to study the design ...

  8. Pressure Scaling Laws for Spectroscopic Quantification of Nitric Oxide (NO) in Combustors

    SBC: Los Gatos Research            Topic: AF05T012

    In Phase I, LGR and Stanford University (R.K. Hanson's group, High Temperature Gasdynamics Laboratory, Mechanical Engineering Department) will develop and demonstrate a laser induced fluorescence spectroscopic technique for accurate and spatially precise measurements of NO in high-performance combustors operating over a range of pressures (0.5-60 atm). The LIF diagnostic strategy will provide NO ...

  9. System for Aero, Servo, Thermal, Elastic, Propulsion (ASTEP) Coupled Analysis

    SBC: M4 ENGINEERING, INC.            Topic: AF05T027

    We will implement a high fidelity multidisciplinary analysis process for coupled aero-servo-thermo-elastic-propulsion analysis of hypersonic waveriders. Our approach allows the use of Navier-Stokes CFD coupled with ablation, propulsion, and finite element models, but in a novel way that allows efficient analysis of entire flight trajectories.

  10. Advanced Antenna Pattern Prediction Software

    SBC: MATHEMATICAL SYSTEMS & SOLUTIONS, INC.            Topic: AF05T018

    The present text proposes development of a software infrastructure for the prediction of antenna patterns on and around aircraft, for frequencies throughout the electromagnetic spectrum - including UHF through L bands as well as arbitrarily high-frequencies---and applicable to aircraft which, like those designed for low observability, contain non perfectly conducting surface materials. Relying on ...
