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. Flame-assisted Additive Manufacturing of Refractory Metals

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: MDA22T010

    FLame-assisted Additive Manufacturing (FLAMe) is a new method of AM in which the desired feedstock material is synthesized in a high temperature gas-phase combustion synthesis reaction and the resulting high temperature metal particles are accelerated and deposited onto a substrate in a user-defined pattern to construct a component. Gas-phase phase precursors allow for no limit on the melting poin ...

  2. Collaborative Sensing using Unmanned Underwater Vehicles in a Mesh Network

    SBC: Certus Core, Inc.            Topic: SOCOM22DST01

    To support US Special Operations Command’s Next Generation Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Situational Awareness applied research goals, Certus proposes the deployment of multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) in a meshed configuration to enable collaborative autonomous sensing on littoral targets of strategic interest. In order to develop this capability, a number of tec ...

  3. Methodologies to Develop Radiation Testing Environments for Survivable Microelectronics

    SBC: INNOSYS, INC.            Topic: MDA21T001

    We will investigate the radiation effects on microelectronics due to gamma-rays and beta-rays and compare the effects on electrical and material properties between the two radiation types to formulate a quantitative mapping of radiation types (gamma and beta) and effects. The purpose is to: 1) Develop an overall physics-based strategy; 2) Define the experimental design, guided by analytical calcul ...

  4. Algorithm Performance Evaluation with Low Sample Size

    SBC: SIGNATURE RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: NGA20C001

    The team of Signature Research, Inc. and Michigan Technological University will develop and demonstrate methods and metrics to evaluate the performance of machine learning-based computer vision algorithms with low numbers of samples of labeled EO imagery. We will use the existing xView panchromatic dataset to demonstrate a proof-of-concept set of tools. If successful, in Phase II, we will extend t ...

  5. Radiation Resistant CNT Transistors

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: MDA20T004

    Current silicon (Si) semiconductors are unsuitable for high radiation environments found in space or nuclear facilities. An alternative approach exists with vacuum tubes, where a gate electrode encourages electron emission across a vacuum gap between an emitter (source) and collector (drain). Traditionally, these were high voltage applications with low reliability, using a filament to heat the tub ...

  8. Manufacturing Efficiency and Capability:Improvement of Flow Properties of Thermal Battery Component Powders

    SBC: Material Flow Solutions, Inc.            Topic: MDA16T001

    The premise of this work is that the main barrier to optimizing battery performance lies in understanding the relationship between bulk solids and particle flow properties and the flow into the die.Our hypothesis: an increase in quality battery production can be achieved if product preparation can be optimized and/or the die filling process controlled.Since die compression is mainly one-dimensiona ...

  9. Improved powder characteristics and manufacturing processes of thermal batteries

    SBC: BINERGY SCIENTIFIC, INC.            Topic: MDA16T001

    We are proposing characterization and development of binder/separator and Cobolt Disulfide (CoS2) cathode for thermal batteries. The proposed solution addresses significant market segment, and supports projected markets growth. Along with our development in Phase I and Phase II, we will aim for fully functional prototypes and field tries, and market of our technology to DoD agencies. Approved for ...

  10. Advanced Electroanalytical Methods for Failure Mode Analysis and Screening of Base Metal Capacitors

    SBC: MAINSTREAM ENGINEERING CORP            Topic: MDA14T003

    Over 95% of the multilayer ceramic capacitors manufactured worldwide use base metal electrode (BME) technology and they are one of the key components in much of the modern electronics. BME capacitors have, over the last 20 years, made significant improvements in performance and reliability; making them more competitive for a wide range of applications. However, there remains significant concerns ...
