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. Ultra-Scalable Nonvolatile Graphene Memory

    SBC: Harper Laboratories            Topic: AF131082

    ABSTRACT: The physical scalability of Si based nonvolatile memory is problematic for the terascale integration of space memory. In particular and with regards to Flash, this problem is two-fold as device designs breakdown and photolithographic patterning approaches its limits to minimum feature size. Whereas phase-change and ferroelectric polymer devices have shown promise to scale beyond Flash ...

  2. A novel Approach for High Rate Production of IR to IR Up-converting Nano-particles

    SBC: UES INC            Topic: AF11BT24

    ABSTRACT: Phosphor materials are currently being utilized in a wide variety of applications. The requirements for phosphors have become more and more stringent with smaller and smaller particles being required. In the Phase I program UES Inc. in collaboration with Penn State University has demonstrated the feasibility of a few approaches for high rate production of high efficiency IR to IR up-con ...

  3. Engine Health Management of Mechanical Systems for High Performance Turbine Engines

    SBC: ETEGENT TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.            Topic: AF121173

    ABSTRACT:This effort will advance the Technology Readiness Level of a new vibration sensor and a vibration/ODM data fusion software system to level 7 through lab testing and development as well as seeded-defect testing in 5000 hp industrial turbine engines, long-term testing in similar engines at a local utility company, and 800-hour/2000-cycle testing in the large CAESAR F135 demonstrator engine ...

  4. Advanced Optical Diagnostics/Modeling Platform for Plasma Assisted Combustion in Vitiated Air

    SBC: SPECTRAL ENERGIES LLC            Topic: AF13AT04

    ABSTRACT: Modern gas-turbine engines designs for the next-generation warfighter need to reduce exhaust gas temperatures to reduce effective thermal footprint thereby improving the mission capability. In such situations, high-altitude engine operation is often limited by the overall combustion efficiency, lean flame blow out (LBO) limit, and combustion instabilities that results in narrower opera ...

  5. Dimensional Restoration of Aircraft Components Damaged by Corrosion

    SBC: UES INC            Topic: AF131190

    ABSTRACT: Current methods for restoration of corrosion affected aircraft components in the Air Logistic Complex are in the need of process and equipment improvement. This proposal offers to perform research to identify and characterize aircraft components/areas requiring dimensional restoration and to identify restoration requirements. It also offers to demonstrate the feasibility of improved te ...

  6. Image Quality Indicator(s) and Software for Computed Radiography (CR)

    SBC: American Testing Services LLC            Topic: AF131191

    Most NDT applications require some gauge of image quality prior to evaluation of the image for defects. In order to assess and quantify the image quality of a radiograph, a numerical value is assigned based on accepted imaging criteria. Film radiographs are typically characterized by the film density and by the visual detection by the inspector of an image artifact intentionally placed on the te ...

  7. Find substitute for Methylene Chloride in depaint operations at Hill AFB

    SBC: MATERIALS ENGINEERING AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES CORP.            Topic: AF131198

    ABSTRACT: Hill AFB paint stripping operations for aircraft landing gear components is currently achieved by soaking landing gear components in a methylene chloride-based (MeCl) solution for 30 minutes, followed by plastic media blasting to remove residual paint. Their current operations use over 16,000 gallons of MeCl-based stripper each year. OSHA classifies MeCl as a potential carcinogen and ...

  8. A General Solver Framework for Radiative Heat Transfer Models in Combustion Systems

    SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: AF141084

    Modern combustion systems such as liquid rocket engines and gas turbines are characterized by high operating pressures and temperatures due to increased power-density. Thermal radiation has significant impact on both heat fluxes at the wall and on physical phenomena controlling the combustion process at these conditions. Coupling between radiation, turbulence and chemistry can have a large effect ...

  9. A Performance Driven Framework for Real-time Exploitation of OPIR Imagery

    SBC: ETEGENT TECHNOLOGIES, LTD.            Topic: AF141105

    As the number of OPIR sensors and the corresponding resolution and frame rates increase, the cost of transmitting the raw data stream to the ground station and moving this data between analyst workstations is rapidly increasing. Because of this, the incorporation of real-time processing both at the sensor and the ground station to characterize regions of interest is becoming a crucial component ...

  10. Adaptive Antenna Structures

    SBC: Vector ElectroMagnetics LLC            Topic: AF141109

    Vector ElectroMagnetics, LLC and The Ohio State University ElectroScience Laboratory propose to adapt design modifications to existing AFSCN ground site SATCOM antenna systems in order to reduce radio frequency interference (RFI) from various sources in L and S bands. The proposed modifications will reduce side and back lobes in the antenna radiation pattern by at least 10 dB as well as achieve a ...
