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. Aerosol Mass Spectrometry via Laser-Induced Incandescence Particle Vaporization

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 50

    Aerosol particles have important impacts on visibility, acid deposition, human health, and climate. A large fraction of the anthropogenic aerosol is generated from energy-related activities known to contribute a significant fraction of ambient aerosol mass in many locations. Black carbon, formed in combustion processes, is believed to have a particularly strong influence on the earth¿s climate o ...

  2. Low-Cost, Multispectral Particle Extinction Monitor

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 14d

    Aerosol particles affect the radiative balance of the earth directly, by scattering and absorbing solar and terrestrial radiation, and, indirectly, by acting as cloud condensation nuclei. It is now recognized that the atmospheric loading of aerosols generated through human activities can exert an influence on the earth¿s radiation budget comparable in magnitude with greenhouse gases. However, unc ...

  3. Development and Characterization of a Thermal Denuder for Aerosol Volatility Measurements

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 14c

    Aerosol particles have important impacts on visibility, acid deposition, climate, and human health, although large uncertainties remain in quantifying their chemical composition and atmospheric transformations. However, of the organic aerosol mass, only a small fraction has been compositionally resolved, and little work has been done on the volatility and partitioning of organic compounds between ...

  4. Dual Laser Isotopic Flux Monitor for Carbon Dioxide and Water Vapor

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 16a

    The increase of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the Earth¿s atmosphere is the most important driver of global warming. In order to predict future carbon dioxide concentrations under various mitigation strategies, a better quantitative understanding of the sources and sinks of atmospheric carbon dioxide is required. The ratios of the stable isotopes of CO2 has long been recognized as markers for identifyi ...

  5. Development of Aircraft Borne 13CH4 Analyzer Using a Continuous Wave Quantum Cascade Infrared Laser Spectrometer

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 47

    Methane (CH4) is the second most important atmospheric greenhouse gas after CO2, yet its global sources and sinks are still inadequately characterized. Monitoring the isotopic composition of atmospheric methane is one of the most promising approaches to closing the methane budget. Recent claims that plants may account for a substantial fraction of atmospheric methane have lead to an increased e ...

  6. Characterization of Particulate Organic via Combined Thermal Desorption Aerosol Gas Chromatography and Aerosol Mass Spectrometry (TAG-AMS)

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 14c

    Aerosol particles have important impacts on visibility, acid deposition, climate, and human health. A large fraction of the anthropogenic aerosol is generated from energy-related activities, and organic compounds are known to constitute a significant fraction of ambient aerosol mass in many locations. Of this organic aerosol mass, only a small fraction has been compositionally resolved, and much o ...

  7. Lightweight, Low Cost, High Accuracy Atmospheric CO2 sensor

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: 16b

    Improved measurements of atmospheric CO2 are needed to better characterize processes involving carbon transformations of soil, vegetation, and associated ecosystem components, and exchanges with the atmosphere. However, current state-of-the-art CO2 sensors neither have the accuracy at the low end (portable units) nor can meet the constraints in power/weight/size/cost at the high end (laboratory in ...

  8. Micro-Mechanical Tunneling Transducer

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: 46a

    Precisely sensing nuclear detonations is critical to preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. Extreme sensitivity on the order of approximately 0.5 ng/sqrt(Hz) is desired, along with robustness and low cost. All three axes of acceleration must be detected. However, current sensors are too large or too insensitive to be widely distributed in a sensor network. To overcome these l ...

  9. Novel Parallax Free Sensor for Molecular Imaging

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: 51

    With the ever-increasing number of human disease models, particularly models in smaller animals, high-resolution emission/transmission tomography techniques have become extremely important. The barriers to using existing modalities in studies of laboratory animals have traditionally been poor spatial resolu­tion, low sensitivity, and high cost. Although detector technologies have improved signi ...

  10. SSPM Detector for Polarized Target Scintillator Readout

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: 26

    Nuclear physics investigations require photodetectors that operate in harsh conditions (e.g., temperatures of 5 K and below, and magnetic fields greater than 1 T); yet existing methods of photodetection cannot provide the needed quality of data at a reasonable cost. This project will develop a photodetector that will tolerate these conditions and can be made in a commercially available, low-cost ...
