The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

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. Secondary Emission Detector Modules for High Energy Physics Experiments

    SBC: NVIZIX LLC            Topic: C5637a

    We propose simulating and constructing a prototype and demonstration brassboard of a Secondary Emission Sensor Module (SESM) for ionizing radiation, as a proof of principle and guide to Phase II and beyond. The simulation and design studies will guide module construction and point to future uses. The module is anticipated to have ~30 stages of sheet dynode with an areal size ~15x15 cm. It will be ...

  2. Selective Electrochemical Recovery of Rare Earth Elements from Ore

    SBC: WYONICS LLC            Topic: C5604a

    1. Problem StatementCurrent industrial-scale rare earth element separation technologies are based on solvent extraction schemes which produce large amounts of undesirable chemical waste, including the loss of volatile organic solvents and reagents employed in the treatment of feed streams. These concerns have severely limited the development of U.S.-based rare earth element separation facilities. ...

  3. Multifunctional Ceramic Antifouling, Erosion- and Corrosion-resistant Coating for Hydropower Applications

    SBC: NANOIONIX, LLC            Topic: C5614b

    Hydroelectric power is the world’s largest source of renewable energy. These massive systems are designed for a 50+ year service life, but this can be shortened substantially by poor water quality and the presence of flowing debris, sediment, minerals, and micro- and macro-organisms. Biofouling (especially from invasive species), corrosion, and erosion (wear) of critical components can limit per ...

  4. X-RAY SOURCE FOR DETECTOR CALIBRATION

    SBC: omega-p r&d, Inc.            Topic: C5602a

    The US Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Research and Development agency has an objective to reduce reliance on high-activity commercial and industrial radioactive sources used in calibration systems. One approach to achieve this goal is by use of novel electron accelerators to produce x-rays that can reach the needed gamma-ray dose rate, repeatability, and stability for calibration, while reducing ...

  5. Internal Surface Finishing of Additively Manufactured RF Components for Fusion Reactor Applications

    SBC: REM CHEMICALS INC            Topic: C5629a

    Statement of the Problem: In a reactor environment, plasma material interaction (PMI) issues associated with radio frequency (RF) coupling structures are similar to those for the first wall and have been identified as a potential problem. A primary challenge is to obtain high power, breakdown resistant density couplers with low loss compatible with fusion plasmas. Advanced manufacturing techniques ...

  6. Nanoarray based monolithic contaminant filter for efficient submicron PM and NH3 removal

    SBC: 3D ARRAY TECHNOLOGY LLC            Topic: C5626e

    C56-26e-273790The proposed SBIR phase I project aims to develop a new class of low cost nanoarray based monolithic contaminant filter for Clean Hydrogen Production and Separation from Coal Waste, Biomass, MSW and Plastics produced syngas. It is anticipated that the contaminant filter can capture > 95 % of the heavy metal particulate matter (PM) with submicron size and remove > 95 % of NH3 in the s ...

  8. Thermally and Chemically Stable Metallic Membranes for H2 Generation with CO2 Capture

    SBC: PRECISION COMBUSTION, INC.            Topic: C5322a

    Precision Combustion, Inc. (PCI) proposes a process-intensified water-gas-shift/metallic-based membrane- reactor (WGS-MR) for modular H2 production from multi-feedstock gasification. This integrated-process concept offers enhanced performance as well as capital, energy, and cost savings. PCI’s WGS-MR produces high purity H2 from gasified coal/biomass blends or reformed natural gas and allows for ...

  9. Highly-Efficient 20-MW L-Band Multi-Beam Klystron

    SBC: omega-p r&d, Inc.            Topic: C5430a

    Statement of problem or situation that is being addressed: The efficient generation of microwave power has recently gained broad attention in the accelerator community because energy consumption is one of the major concerns for future large-scale high energy accelerator projects. Efforts to achieve high efficiency in high RF power sources for future large-scale accelerators such as the Compact Lin ...

  10. A Robotic Inspection and Assembly Workcell for SRF Cavities

    SBC: Square One Systems Design, Inc.            Topic: C5430b

    The production of high-Q superconducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities involves a complex chain of fabrication and inspection operations. Currently, much of this demanding work is performed manually within the tightly controlled environment of a production cleanroom. However, as the design precision and cleanliness requirements of modern SRF cavities have increased, this “human factor” has em ...
