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. Digital Beam Processing of Oxide Nano-electronic Devices (Digi-POND)

    SBC: NEXGENSEMI CORPORATION            Topic: AF08BT22

    NexGenSemi Corporation/UC Berkeley team will explore the feasibility to produce high density LaAlO3 / SrTiO3 nanoelectronics using Digital Beam Processing (DBP). DBP is a modified resistless, maskless manufacturing technique (compliant to Executive Order 13329) performed within a single cluster tool with capability to perform patterned etch, deposition, and implant processes thereby reducing both ...

  2. Mid-Infrared Precision Frequency Combs

    SBC: Q-PEAK INCORPORATED            Topic: AF08BT16

    A broad and stable comb of optical frequencies generated by a femtosecond laser is a useful tool for precision optical measurements. Such sources have great utility in the construction of more accurate atomic clocks and in high precision spectroscopy. While  there has been a great deal of work on the generation of frequency combs in the visible and near IR, there has not been as much work at IR w ...

  3. Scalable technology for growth of high quality single crystal gallium nitride

    SBC: Soraa            Topic: AF08BT20

    This Small Business Technology Transfer Phase I project will investigate the feasibility of growth of high quality, low cost bulk gallium nitride substrates by the high pressure ammonothermal method.  The proposed approach utilizes a novel apparatus which is scalable to process volumes of hundreds of liters at modest cost.  The novel apparatus will be capable of accessing process pressures above ...

  4. Diffusion Geometry Based Nonlinear Methods for Hyperspectral Change Detection

    SBC: Plain Sight Systems Inc            Topic: AF08BT24

    We propose a suite of nonlinear image processing algorithms derived from the analysis of the underlying diffusion geometry of a collection of hyperspectral images of interest. These tools enable the comparison of spatio-spectral features of hyperspectral images acquired under different conditions, for the purposes of target detection, change detection and anomaly assessment. This methodology also ...

  5. Variable Thrust/Specific Impulse Electrospray Propulsion

    SBC: ALAMEDA APPLIED SCIENCES CORPORATION            Topic: AF08BT09

    Yale University and Alameda Applied Sciences Corporation (AASC) propose to develop a single propellant electrospray micro-thruster for space propulsion with a wide specific impulse range, from 500s at the low end to >2500s, with the goal of 10,000s, while maximizing the performance. Three key prior accomplishments have motivated the formation of this team: Yale, working with ARL has demonstrated M ...

  6. Heat Transfer Prediction in Transitional Hypersonic Flow

    SBC: CASCADE TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: AF08BT13

    Accurate prediction of heat transfer in hypersonic boundary layers undergoing transition from laminar to turbulent regime is a technical challenge. Heat transfer overshoot at transition region is of particular interest here. We have proposed a two pronged approach for this problem. On one hand we will conduct very accurate Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) studies to understand the mechanisms of t ...

  7. Smart photodetector and focal plane array with voltage-tunable multi-spectral polarimetric imaging and on-chip signal processing and control capabilit

    SBC: APPLIED NANOFEMTO TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: AF08BT02

    Multi-modal photodetectors and focal plane arrays (FPA) with adaptive multi-spectral polarization sensing and signal processing functionalities will greatly enhance Air Forces target recognition and discrimination capabilities. Current existing multi-spectral imaging systems employ scanning dispersive optics (gratings or prisms) to obtain spectral and polarimetric characteristics. These systems ar ...

  8. Reconfigurable Materials for Photonic Systems

    SBC: Photonic Systems, Inc.            Topic: AF08BT28

    The Air Force has expressed a need for reconfigurable cellular electronic and photonic arrays and their great potential in enabling the direct implementation of complex systems as software-defined emulations, configuring pre-built logic, and other optical processing or transmission functions. Our proposal addresses the need for integration of the universal logic cells and the reconfigurable interc ...

  9. Variable-Isp Ionic Liquid Electrospray Thruster

    SBC: BUSEK CO., INC.            Topic: AF08BT09

    Busek proposes, with the MIT Space Propulsion Lab, to develop and characterize a variable-Isp colloid thruster operating only in the ionic mode and achieving its variable-Isp through use of a deceleration grid.  This approach overcomes the usual inefficiencies encountered in variable-Isp colloid thruster operation, where lower Isp is accomplished through operation in droplet or mixed droplet/ion ...

  10. All fiber-based high power Mid-IR precision frequency combs

    SBC: POLARONYX INC            Topic: AF08BT16

    Based on our success in developing the world''s first commercial 10 W femtosecond fiber laser system and our leading technology development in ultrashort pulsed fiber laser and nonlinear fiber optics, PolarOnyx proposes, for the first time, a compact all fiber based high power (>500 mW) mid-IR supercontinuum source (3-12 micron) to meet with the requirement of the AF solicitation. The laser is a s ...
