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. Integration of Inertial Measurement Data for Improved Localization and Tracking of Radiation Sources

    SBC: Passport Systems, Inc.            Topic: 121002

    The work proposed will study, develop, and implement efficient gradient detection methods and algorithms for localizing radiation sources using a single non‐directional detector. Exploitation of gradients introduced by source‐to‐detector distance – through natural or deliberate motion – and those introduced by body‐shielding will allow for localization and tracking of sources in a pede ...

  2. TIBr Spectrometers with Improved Long Term Stability at Room Temperature

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: 20121004

    The ideal semiconductor detector for the nuclear non-proliferation application should have good energy resolution, high detection efficiency, compact size, light weight, easy portability, low power requirments and low cost. In the proposed effort, we plan to continue our development of thallium bromide (TIBr), a wide band gap semiconductor that recently has shown great promise as a gamma-ray detec ...

  3. High Efficiency TlBr Gamma-Ray Detector Module

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: 20121005

    The ideal semiconductor detector for nuclear monitoring should have good energy resolution, high detection efficiency, compact size, light weight, easy portability and low cost. In the proposed effort, we plan to develop a detector module for nuclear monitoring based on thallium bromide (TlBr), a wide band gap semiconductor that recently has shown great promise as a gamma-ray detector material. Tl ...

  4. Establishment of Scientific and Industrial Base for Production of High Purity Precursor Materials for SrI2:Eu and CLYC

    SBC: CAPESYM INC            Topic: 111001

    Successful growth of novel halide scintillators SrI2:Eu and CLYC depends on a supply of highly pure precursor materials. CapeSym and SAFC will partner to provide holistic analysis of the nature of precursor impurities and their impact on scintillator performance. We will characterize light and heavy impurities, purify the material through novel techniques, and re-test outputs. In parallel we will ...

  5. Defect Engineering of TlBr for Room Temperature Radiation Detection

    SBC: CAPESYM INC            Topic: 121004

    TlBr is a promising gamma radiation semiconductor detector material primarily due to its high Z component and high density. TlBr detectors, however, suffer from polarization at room temperature and degrade rapidly under applied bias. Polarization is associated with ionic conductivity in this material. This proposal is focused on controlling the point, chemical, and crystalline defects in TlBr to m ...

  6. Embedded Algorithms for Radioactive Source Localization and Tracking During Advanced Pedestrian Search

    SBC: PHYSICAL SCIENCES INC.            Topic: 121002

    Physical Sciences Inc. (PSI) proposes to develop a set of novel algorithms enabling enhanced pedestrian search capability against radioactive sources when using handheld, belt, or backpack mounted detector systems. The proposed approaches will result in a capability to localize the source. In addition, the source will be associated with visible objects to aid tracking and interdiction. The solutio ...

  7. Objective X-ray Image Display Evaluation (OXIDE)

    SBC: CHARLES RIVER ANALYTICS, INC.            Topic: HSB0122003

    Transportation Security Officers (TSOs) are tasked with exploiting x-ray inspection systems to detect potential threats. To ensure the safety and security of the traveling public and to ensure efficient operation, TSOs must maintain a 100% probability of detection (Pd) rate while minimizing screening time and cost. Achieving these objectives requires that x-ray inspection systems operate predictab ...

  8. Enhanced Beta-Batteries: A Long Life Power Source for Sensors Monitoring WMD

    SBC: RADIATION MONITORING DEVICES, INC.            Topic: DTRA102004

    While many applications may have access to harvestable energy in the form of solar radiation (or other ambient light), wind, environmental vibration, or wave motion, not all do. In this proposal, RMD targets the most challenging applications, sensors that must operate for many months or years and which have undependable or no access to environmental energy. These sensors need a self contained, com ...

  9. Low-Stress Growth of BaBrI and CsBa2I5 Scintillators

    SBC: CAPESYM INC            Topic: 111003

    The recent discovery of Eu activated alkali-earth halide scintillators promises to revolutionize remote detection and identification of radioisotopes. This proposal addresses the development of methods for production of large-volume, high-quality CsBa2I5scintillators. High-quality, low-cost scintillators for detection of gamma-rays are needed for monitoring of nuclear non-proliferation and homelan ...
