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. Avalanche Photodiode Arrays

    SBC: Advanced Photonix            Topic: N/A

    This research will substantially advance the state of the art in single-chip photodetector arrays. Advanced Photonix, Inc. manufactures unique large-area, single-element silicon avalanche photodiodes (currently 16mm active-area diameter,but potentially up to 75mm). The research will demonstrate feasibility (Phase I) and produce a prototype (Phase II) of such a photodetector subdivided into an arra ...

  2. High-Power Vertical Cavity Laser Diode Arrays for Space Applications

    SBC: Aerius Photonics, LLC.            Topic: MDA06020

    Instead of making incremental improvements to the inherent weakness of the laser facet, Aerius Photonics proposes to fabricate space-qualifiable laser pump arrays that eliminate the weakness of the facet altogether by using kilowatt-capable vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs), which use a distributed mirror, effectively decoupling the feedback mirror from the output window. When compa ...

  3. 2-D Optical Preamplifier Pixel Arrays For Near Photon-Counting Flash Ladar Receivers

    SBC: Aerius Photonics, LLC.            Topic: MDA06013

    Aerius Photonics proposes to build, test, and deliver a 2-D Optical-Preamplifier Pixel Array (OPPA) to provide near photon-counting imaging Flash Ladar receiver sensitivity with linear-mode operation, full pulse shape discrimination, superior countermeasure immunity, and distinct advantages that improve target discrimination. The approach leverages the Phase I successful demonstration of 32x32 arr ...

  4. High-Gain, Wavelength-Agile Compact Coherent and Direct-Detection Receiver for High-Bandwidth Laser Communications

    SBC: Aerius Photonics, LLC.            Topic: MDA06019

    Aerius Photonics proposes a wavelength tunable, optically preamplified receiver called the MEMS Tunable Vertical Cavity Amplified Detector (MT-VCAD). The MT-VCAD is a compact hybrid semiconductor chip device that utilizes an integrated MEMS mirror in conjunction with an amplifying semiconductor resonant cavity and a hybrid PIN detector to selectively amplify and detect different wavelengths of lig ...

  5. GaP ZnS for Blue Light Emitting Diodes

    SBC: ASTROPOWER, INC.            Topic: N/A

    AstroPower is developing a two-junction monolithic tandem solar cell composed of (AlxGa1-x)0.51In.49P lattice matched to GaAs for use as the top cell in a three-junction, two-terminal tandem stack. This tunable bandgap material system is capable of current matching, at 2.03eV, in a two-junction monolithic tandem solar cell two terminal design of (AlxGa1-x)0.51In0.49P/GaAs yielding a best case pred ...

  6. Optimization and Reduced Print Thru in HEL Deformable Mirrors

    SBC: BENNETT OPTICAL RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: MDA06053

    The objective of this program is to develop adaptive optic laser mirrors which exhibit minimum distortion when irradiated with high power laser flux. Two approaches will be tried utilizing two sets of previously selected candidate materials. Results will indicate how to significantly improve the performance of the Air Force ACDM and BCDM laser mirrors as well as to improve the performance of laser ...

  7. High Fidelity Scene Generation for Distributed Hardware in the Loop of BMDS Components

    SBC: CG2, Inc.            Topic: MDA06048

    The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) requires a superior testing and simulation environment to validate complex Ballistic Missile Defense Systems that incorporate a broad range of geographically distributed systems, including: command and control, missile warning, intelligence assets, sensors (in several passbands), signal processing, target discrimination, Hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) facilities, bat ...

  8. High Tc Superconductor- Silicon on Sapphire CMOS Hybrid Circuit

    SBC: CONDUCTUS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    By exploiting previous work on the growth of YBCO and Josephson junctions on buffered sapphire, Conductus will combine silicon CMOS on sapphire with high temperature superconductors, all on a single chip. Conductus will test the ability of the Si MOS devices to withstand the subsequent YBCO processes. Chips will then be tested to determine the effects of the additional processing on the active Si ...

  9. ULTRA-QUIET PLATFORM FOR SDI SENSORS

    SBC: CSA Engineering, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Dynamic isolation of components and machinery is critical for many SDI and commercial applications. Vibration isolation using soft mounts leads to static misalignment, increased travel requirements, and decreased mount strength, often precluding this approach. The ideal isolator has high static (mount) stiffness, but low stiffness at disturbance frequencies. This SBIR will lead to a family of mode ...

  10. Affordable Reliable Modular Solar Panels

    SBC: VANGUARD SPACE TECHNOLOGIES, INC            Topic: MDA06017

    Solar panels need reliability improvements while reaching for higher performance. This SBIR develops a Modular Solar Panel that uses an integral transparent cover/shield and stress control substrate, together with process-controlled production lamination techniques, to achieve an integrated engineering and manufacturing approach to solar panels. The MSP panels comprise Modules chosen from a set ...
