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. Manufacturing Scale-Up of High-Purity Optical Ceramics

    SBC: ENGI-MAT CO            Topic: OSD04L01

    In this effort, nGimat will develop the capabilities to produce high-quality optical ceramic nanopowder for DoD applications such as laser and missile weapons and defense systems.Development of such capabilities will require improvements in current man...

  2. High-Energy, Long-Life Lithium-Sulfur Batteries

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: N152093

    Batteries with multi-electron redox materials offer promise for increased performance relative to state of the art lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have two electron cathode materials (in addition to a lithium metal anode) and better than two times the specific energy of Li-ion batteries.However, several issues have prevented Li-S batteries from becoming more commercially via ...

  4. Carbon Fiber Composite Insulator

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: MDA15020

    A multifunctional improved thermal protection system (TPS) is proposed to reduce weight and to incorporate electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and lightning strike protection. TDA has previously done proof-of-concept studies with a heavily modified carbon fiberphenolic TPS. Our material is mechanically robust and exceedingly simple to manufacture. In this project, we will incorporate EMI ...

  5. Low Light Short Wave Infrared Focal Plane Arrays

    SBC: BFE Acquisition Sub II, LLC            Topic: MDA15022

    Current large format focal plane array (FPA) imaging sensors for imaging in low-light conditions in the near infrared / short wavelength infrared (NIR/SWIR) regions are limited by poor signal-to-noise. Electron avalanche photodiodes (e-APDs) using HgCdTe provide internal gain with very little excess noise and allow high signal-to-noise in low-light conditions. Cooling the e-APD SWIR FPA to 77K red ...

  6. Resource Intelligent VPU Utilization Leading to an Effectively Threaded System (RIVULETS)

    SBC: ADVENTIUM ENTERPRISES, LLC            Topic: A15102

    To improve performance of Army CFD codes on new HPC architectures using MIC co-processors, we propose the RIVULETS tool which uses hybrid algorithms and automatic tuning to decrease CFD run-time and improve numerical performance. Existing CFD codes are parallelized using MPI, a highly effective approach for distributed architectures with large quantities of system memory and relatively simple seri ...

  7. Innovative Technologies for Detection and Discrimination of Surface and Buried Explosive Hazards

    SBC: Guidestar Optical Systems, Inc.            Topic: A15108

    Detecting buried in road or roadside explosive threats is a major problem facing the Army on todays battlefield. Recent studies have shown that Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) imaging polarimeters can detect these threats; however, the implementation of the polarimeters has not been traceable to a ruggedized, field ready imaging system. Guidestar Optical Systems proposes to develop an imaging LWIR polar ...

  8. Improved Track Accuracy for Missile Engagements

    SBC: FIRST RF CORPORATION            Topic: MDA15008

    "Efficient acquisition, tracking, and discrimination of threatening objects by geographically dispersed sensors are dependent on precise tracking and sensing of missile defense systems. These systems require state-of-the-art radar processing, antennas, and RF systems.The objective, simply stated, is to provide a sensor system with the ability to acquire and track fast moving targets at extended ra ...

  10. MEMS IMU Solutions for Missile Defense Applications

    SBC: ENGENIUSMICRO LLC            Topic: MDA15026

    IMUs in flight systems (interceptors, airborne platforms, and space assets) are constrained by limits on size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-C), and are also exposed to severe shock and vibration during storage, transport, launch, staging, deployment and engagement. This combination of requirements has proven difficult to meet using current inertial sensor technology.Inertial sensors and IMUs based ...
