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. Ceramic Composite RDE Hot-Section Components

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF183039

    Rotating Detonation Engines (RDEs) are a leading approach for replacing the Brayton cycle with the much more efficient detonation cycle for air-breathing propulsion. Obtaining these efficiencies will push the limits of available materials, even for applications using significant gas cooling.Those hot-section materials must be chemically stable at heat-soak temperatures of 1450oC while experiencing ...

  2. Upper Stage Detonation Engine for Small Launch Vehicles

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF182060

    Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to design, develop, and demonstrate a rotating detonation rocket engine (RDRE) for upper stage propulsion systems of small launch vehicles. This novel engine design is based on a unique expansion nozzle that addresses the thrust performance issues that have persisted in rotating detonation engines to date. Exhaust gas acceleration is optimized by swept contour ...

  3. Portable Laser-Based Analyzer for Trace Metals in Jet Fuels

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF191027

    Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to develop a laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) based analyzer for trace metal content in aviation or ground fuels.The sensor tool is intended for person-portable field use at fuel depots where a quick and easy analysis may be performed on a milliliter scale fuel sample. Currently, technicians must rely on sending fuel samples to nearby (or distant) l ...

  5. A Versatile Hybrid MWIR Scene Projector for Testing of Advanced Focal Plane Arrays

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF191040

    Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) will develop a versatile next generation high dynamic range (HDR) infrared scene projector (IRSP) that combines a flickerless wide field of view (WFOV) channel with an overlaid foveated high-intensity narrow field of view (NFOV) channel. Both channels employ digital micromirror devices (DMDs) as spatial light modulators with thermal IR and broadband quantum cascade las ...

  8. Additively Joined Arbitrary Size Scramjet Engine Ducts

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: AF191067

    The Air Force requires large scale scramjet engines but current fabrication methods have long lead times, high part rejection rate, and great expense. PSI will address these shortcomings by developing an Additive Manufacturing (AM) plus brazing process that allows duct segments to be jointed together into large-scale scramjet assemblies.PSIs method makes it possible to combine cooled metal panels ...
