Award Data
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.

Phased Array Ultrasonic NDE of Plasma Facing Components
SBC: ACOUSTIC IDEAS, INC. Topic: 34The future of nuclear fusion relies in part on the development of effective plasma facing components (PFCs) that can withstand the intense heat loads, forces, and neutron bombardment of long-pulse, high-power reactor operation. Current PFC designs for the next-generation International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), which will require thousands of PFCs, involve beryllium (Be) armor bon ...

Hybrid Ceramic/Metallic Recuperator for SOFC Generators
SBC: Atrex Energy, Inc. Topic: 15Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are one of the most efficient and cleanest power generating systems under development. A key component in the SOFC generator is the cathode-air heat exchanger or recuperator, which ensures that the cathode air (and, thereby, the cells) is at a sufficient temperature to permit ion mobility and improve overall SOFC system efficiency by reducing stack losses. However, ...

Low Thermal Resistance Graphite-Organic Thermal Interface Material for IGBT Power Modules
SBC: ADVANCED THERMAL TECHNOLOGIES Topic: 32There is a growing demand for power electronics that can operate under the high temperature and high power conditions that will be encountered in applications such as Hybrid Electric Vehicles. As the coolant temperature used to dissipate heat from the electronics increases, the operation of power semiconductor devices such as Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors (IGBTs) becomes severly limited, in ...

Temperature Programmed Thermal Desorption Aerosol Mass Spectrometry (TPTDAMS) for Determining Organic Aerosol Composition
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 09Aerosol particles have important impacts on visibility, acid deposition, climate, and human health; yet, large uncertainties remain in quantifying their chemical composition and atmospheric transformations. A large part 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 loca ...

CAPS-Based Particle Single Scattering Albedo Monitor
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 09Aerosol 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 influence the earth¿s radiation budget in an amount comparable with greenhouse gases. However, uncertaintie ...

A Low Cost, Absolute Ambient Carbon Dioxide Monitor
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 11Although carbon dioxide is monitored worldwide at hundreds of monitoring stations, existing monitoring methods, which rely on the use of high pressure calibration gas cylinders, are both labor intensive and expensive. Thus, there is a pressing need for an affordable, highly-accurate (1 part in 3000) carbon dioxide monitor for the ambient atmosphere. In addition to being extremely accurate, the r ...

Broadly Tunable Quantum Cascade Laser Technology for Remote Sensing
SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC Topic: 01National security interests related to the nonproliferation of weapons of mass destruction require the remote detection of trace gases associated with the nuclear fuel cycle. Newly developed, mid-infrared, quantum cascade lasers have the potential to contribute to this application. These small solid state lasers produce relatively high power in the infrared band of light where many gases can be ...

New, Bright, High Resolution Scintillators
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: 01Proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, such as nuclear weapons, is a serious threat in the world today. Although gamma-ray detectors are an important component of systems used to prevent nuclear proliferation, the performance of such systems is currently limited by the characteristics of available gamma-ray sensors. This project will investigate a new class of scintillators that have the ...

High-Throughput Single Molecule Analysis Instrument
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: 08The analysis and control of single macromolecules is an important goal of the DOE¿s Genome-to-Life Program. However, single molecule assays that use fluorescent dyes are not photostable, have low quantum yield, and have broad emission spectra. Conventional, confocal, fluorescence correlation microscopes use only one pair of detectors, have low throughput, lack multiparameter analysis, are ineff ...

Low-Cost SSPM-Based Digital Radiation Monitor
SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC. Topic: 06Many facilities throughout the DOE Complex will reside in a safe storage, or surveillance and maintenance mode, until such time that funding resources are available to perform decontamination and demolition. Therefore, long-term monitoring systems are required to ensure against a contaminant release and provide rapid response in the case of such an event. New or improved monitors or sensors are ...
