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. Phased Array Ultrasonic Inspection of Fastener Holes in Two-Layer Structures

    SBC: ACOUSTIC IDEAS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "Nondestructive inspection is a key component of programs aimed at extending the service life of aging aircraft. One important capability is the detection of cracking and corrosion around fastener holes. In thick, multiple layer structures, there is oftenno solution but removal of the fasteners for inspection, a costly and potentially damaging process. Phased array ultrasonics offer a novel and ...

  2. Optimized Phased Array Hard Alpha Inclusion Detection in Castings

    SBC: ACOUSTIC IDEAS, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "Current manufacturing technology for cast titanium components cannot guarantee theabsence of hard alpha inclusions.Under the effect of fatigue, such inclusions become likely sites for structuralfailure. By performing nondestructive inspections on the manufactured parts usingphased array ultrasound, one can eliminate parts with the largest inclusions.Despite such quality control, undetected inclus ...

  4. Space-Flight Assessment of a Small-Scale Collins Type Cryocooler Concept

    SBC: Advanced Mechanical Technology, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    "A compact, reliable, efficient and inexpensive cryocooler requiring less than 1kW of power for 2W of cooling at 10Kelvin is being developed and will be demonstrated. This performance is at least twice as efficient as the best current state-of-the-art forsmall low-temperature cryocoolers. The proposed technical approach, whose feasibility has been confirmed, is to apply the advantageous features ...

  5. Frequency-Agile Monolithic Micro-Laser with Ultra-Narrow Linewidth

    SBC: ADVR, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "A method for generating a high power, continuous wave (cw) monolithic micro-laser with rapidly tunable, narrow linewidth output is proposed. The concept employs a semiconductor laser coupled to an electro-optically controlled Bragg waveguide in PotassiumTitanyl Phosphate (KTP) providing single frequency output. Frequency tuning is achieved by applying a voltage across the waveguide, thereby cha ...

  6. Lightweight Structural Aerobrake for Orbital Positioning and Maneuvering

    SBC: AEROASTRO, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "One of the most significant barriers to routine space access is the high cost of launch to orbit. The currently available launch means to Low Earth Orbit are disproportionately expensive to the value of these small systems. Even on today's mostinexpensive launch vehicles, launch costs remain prohibitive for many small payloads.A low-cost, lightweight structure that can be used as an aerobrake d ...

  7. A Modular Satellite Bus Architecture to Enable Rapid Configuration and On-Orbit Servicing

    SBC: AEROASTRO, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "A modular satellite platform that is capable of achieving rapid, easily configurable and low cost mission objectives has been a goal of the space industry for many years. The ability to design a flexible modular spacecraft platform that can supportmultiple mission variations can achieve the following results:¿ Reduced integration and testing time¿ Accommodate a wide range of payload/av ...

  8. Proximity Inspection Sensor Array and Remote Radio Frequency Diagnostic Tool

    SBC: AEROASTRO, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "A significant problem for stakeholders in large satellite systems is the difficulty of getting data about these systems when it counts the most - in orbit and during critical anomalous situations. Near-field diagnostic tools - including visual andinfrared images and close-range radio frequency measurements - are now becoming feasible to examine performance, anomalies, and failures on orbit.AeroA ...

  9. Smart Escort Microsatellite: A Modular Solution for On-Orbit Rendezvous and Inspection

    SBC: AEROASTRO, INC.            Topic: N/A

    "AeroAstro proposes to develop a scaleable architecture for a low cost, rapid response Smart Escort Microsatellite inspection and servicing system that will support the needs of the United States military's current and planned space assets, while workingwithin the constraints of the RASCAL program. Instead of competing with other, large infrastructure on orbit servicing programs, this effort will ...

  10. Reconfigurable Synthetic Jet Actuation for Closed-Loop Hingeless Flow Control

    SBC: AEROPROBE CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    "In this work, we propose to capitalize on our experience with synthetic jet actuation, low order system modeling, and control in order to develop an integrated approach to hingeless flow control. We first propose to develop a new, hybrid, synthetic jetactuator that will be capable, via real-time actuator parameter control, of both separation manipulation (reduction, elimination or promotion) and ...
