The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY23 is not expected to be complete until September, 2024.

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. Advanced nanocomposite scintillator for gamma radiation detection

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: DTRA08005

    Until now gamma radiation detection has required large single crystals of sensitive materials that are difficult to produce consistently on an industrial scale. In collaboration with a research group at the University of Texas at Arlington, Agiltron proposes to develop a new class of nanocomposite scintillator materials. The radiation detection characteristics of the synthetic nanoparticles in the ...

  2. Improvements in Scintillation Technology for Detection of Nuclear Radiation

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: DTRA07004

    High-resolution scintillation crystals and crystal arrays are important components of current and future handheld and arrayed detectors (used for DOD/DTRA applications), and scintillation spectrometers (routinely used in high energy physics research, medical imaging, diffraction, homeland security, nuclear waste clean-up, nuclear treaty verification and safeguards, and geological exploration). Un ...

  3. Batteryless Sensors for Intrusion Detection and Assessment of Threats

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

    A batteryless and wireless sensor for intrusion detection and assessment of threats which requires no battery, external power or wiring is proposed. These types of sensors derive energy from passing vehicles or persons, and indicate their presence, location, speed, etc., via a self-generated short-range radio signal. These sensors require no maintenance, and can be inconspicuously placed in window ...

  4. DEVELOPMENT OF UNIFORM GAS DISCHARGE PLASMA SOURCES FOR PLASMA OPENING SWITCH APPLICATIONS

    SBC: HY-Tech Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    PLASMA OPENING SWITCHES (POS) ARE WIDELY USED FOR CURRENT COMPRESSION AND OWER AMPLIFICATION IN INDUCTIVE ENERGY STORE PULSE POWER SYSTEMS. FLASHBOARD PLASMA SOURCES ARE WIDELY USED AS PLASMA INJECTORS IN THESE POS'S. THE FLASHBOARD PLASMA IS PRODUCED BY SURFACE BREAKDOWN ON AN INSULATOR IN VACUUM. SINCE THE SURFACE CONDITIONS DEPEND ON THE PREVIOUS HISTORY, THE RESULTING PLASMA IS NOT UNIFORM, RE ...

  5. Development of a Differential Interferometric Technique for Measuring Magnetic Field Profiles in a Plasma Radiation Source

    SBC: HY-Tech Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    The current distribution in plasma radiation sources is both a yardstick for measuring the coupling efficiency of the generator, and a means of studying the implosion dynamics of the load. Since the current distribution cannot be directly measured, it must be deduced from the magnetic field profile. Magnetic field distributions, based on the Faraday rotation of polarized laser light, are typical ...

  7. CONTOURING THE OXYGEN ION ENERGY TO OBTAIN IMPROVED SIMOX MATERIAL

    SBC: IBIS TECHNOLOGY CORP.            Topic: N/A

    A PROGRAM IS PROPOSED TO EVALUATE THE FEASIBILITY OF FORMING IMPROVED SIMOX MATERIAL BY CONTOURING THE ENERGY OF THE INCIDENT OXYGEN IONS. DURING THE IMPLANTATION PROCESS OF SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF SUBSTRATE MATERIAL IS REMOVED BY SPUTTERING. ALTHOUGH THE RANGE R(P) OF INCIDENT IONS REMAINS CONSTANT, TO FIRST ORDER, DURING THE IMPLANT, THE SPUTTERING AWAY OF THE SURFACE CAUSES INCIDENT IONS TO COME ...

  8. REAL-TIME DRY PROCESS NON-LIGHT SENSITIVE X-RAY FILM

    SBC: Imaging Science Technologies            Topic: N/A

    BOTH CURRENT (INF) AND PROPOSED (SALT) ARMS CONTROL TREATIES WILL REQUIRE MEANS OF VERIFICATION AND COUNTING OF MISSILES. CURRENT PROVISIONS PRECLUDE LOOKING INSIDE VEHICLES AND UNDER COVERS. ONE METHOD OF VISUALIZING CONTENTS WILL BE BY X-RAY, HOWEVER, CURRENT X-RAY FILMS ARE LIGHT-SENSITIVE AND REQUIRE CHEMICAL PROCESSING AND BECAUSE OF THIS, MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR DIFFICULT ENVIRONMENTS IN THE ...

  9. LOW COST IMPROVED SIMOX MATERIAL BY HIGH-CURRENT-DENSITY HIGH TEMPERATURE IMPLANTATION

    SBC: Spire Corporation            Topic: N/A

    SPIRE HAS RECENTLY DEMONSTRATED THAT SIMOX WAFERS OF SUFFICIENTLY HIGH QUALITY AND LOW DEFECT DENSITY TO SUPPORT BIPOLAR DEVICE APPLICATIONS CAN BE PRODUCED. TO ACHIEVE SUPERIOR QUALITY, HOWEVER, PRESENTLY REQUIRES PRODUCTION METHODS WHICH RESULT IN RELATIVELY HIGH COST. A RESEARCH PROGRAM IS PROPOSED WHICH WILL ESTABLISH THE FOUNDATION FOR LOWER COST, HIGHER THROUGHPUT PRODUCTION ALTERNATIVES WHI ...

  10. TUNNEL HARDENING THROUGH INNOVATIVE ROCK BOLTS AND SHOTCRETE LINERS

    SBC: UTD, INC.            Topic: N/A

    DEEP BASING FACILITIES REQUIRE THAT STRUCTURES BE PROTECTED AGAINST BLAST EFFECTS. INHERENT IN THIS NEED IS FOR THE TUNNEL SUPPORT SYSTEM TO BE ECONOMICALLY INSTALLED AND CAPABLE OF WITHSTANDING OVERSTRESSES WHICH MAY REACH OR EXCEED 1 KILOBAR. IN ORDER TO MORE EFFICIENTLY HARDEN A STRUCTURE, THE SUPPORT SYSTEM SHOULD BE MADE MORE DUCTILE SO THAT IT CAN UNDERGO DEFORMATION WHILE RETAINING ITS ABIL ...
