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. Very Large Area Microchannel Plate Neutron Detectors

    SBC: NOVA SCIENTIFIC INCORPORATED            Topic: 18a

    NOVA Scientific, Inc., teamed with the Electronics Group of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, proposes to construct very large area Microchannel Plate neutron detectors. The applications of these much larger format detectors will serve an exceptionally broad range of government agencies from neutron scattering detectors for DOE to nuclear material panel detectors for NNSA, and ultimately to nuclear m ...

  2. Improved Solid-State Neutron Detector

    SBC: AGILTRON, INC.            Topic: 37a

    Improved methods of neutron detection are needed not only for nuclear physics research but also for international control of weapons and neutron based therapies in medical applications. He-3 tube-based neutron detectors and planar solid-state neutron detectors are the two currently available technologies for thermal neutron detection. Although He-3 tube-based neutron detectors have efficiencies ...

  3. Compact and Efficient Cold and Thermal Neutron Collimators

    SBC: NOVA SCIENTIFIC INCORPORATED            Topic: 37a

    New neutron radiographic imaging facilities at the Spallation Neutron Source will require detectors with better position resolution and rate capability than available with existing technologies. This project will develop a novel type of compact thermal neutron collimator for these detectors. These compact collimators can be employed to effectively reduce post scattered neutrons arriving at the d ...

  4. H-PDLC Tunable Filter for Hyperspectral Imaging

    SBC: Optra, Inc.            Topic: 44b

    Hyperspectral Imaging ,HIS, provides a means for detecting weapons of mass destruction. A core element of a HSI system is a tunable wavelength filter. There is a need for faster tunable wavelength filters than those that currently exist in practice. To address this need, this project will develop a tunable wavelength filter based on a holgraphically-formed, polymer-dispersed liquid crystal, HPD ...

  5. The Global Monitor Platform: Addressing Uncertainty in the Price of Carbon Credits with Improved Isotopic Monitoring

    SBC: Planetary Emissions Management Inc.            Topic: 16b

    The value of traded financial instruments used to comply with greenhouse gas emissions reached 29 billion dollars in 2006, yet pricing for carbon credits has remained volatile and uncertain, in part due to an incomplete understanding of the carbon cycle at local, regional, and global scales. Monitoring CO2 concentrations is critical to quantifying carbon fluxes e.g., sequestration per sink; deseq ...

  6. Hyperspectral Sensor for Large-Area Monitoring of Carbon-Dioxide Reservoirs and Pipelines

    SBC: RESONON, INC.            Topic: 04b

    Geologic carbon sequestration has the potential to store a century¿s worth of anthropogenic carbon dioxide production. However, this solution will require numerous large underground reservoirs that may extend over hundreds of square kilometers and an extensive network of pipelines, some of which will be on the order of hundreds of kilometers long. Consequently, very large areas will need to b ...

  7. A Novel Approach to Microbe-Base Ethanol Production, GTL:and Related Biotechnologies

    SBC: SunEthanol Incorporated            Topic: 15c

    The development of commercially-viable, cellulosic ethanol biofuels technology has emerged as a national priority. However, the crystalline structure of cellulose constitutes a major barrier to the efficient conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to fermentable polymers and sugars, with significant effects on conversion rates. This project will pair an organism, Clostridium phytofermentans, which ...

  8. Insulation Materials and Methods for Bi2212 Magnets

    SBC: Supercon, Inc.            Topic: 51a

    NbTi and Nb3Sn, the primary materials currently used for the high field magnets in high energy physics research, are limited to magnetic field generation of about 10.5 T and 20 T respectively. In order to generate magnetic fields greater than 20 T, a new high field conductor, such as Bi2212, is needed. However, Bi2212 is a highly reactive compound and must be heat treated in oxygen at temperatur ...

  9. ABL (Airborne Laser) Detection Sensor Improvements

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: MDA06T006

    The first sentinel of ABL’s present target acquisition suite is a passive infrared search and track sensor of 1970s vintage, which we propose replacing with HyPAWS. HyPAWS is a low-cost passive wide-field of view staring sensor. Several such units suffice to provide full 360-degree view coverage. Leveraging revolutionary sensing techniques in ongoing development, HyPAWS offers advanced detect ...

  10. A Low Cost, Absolute Ambient Carbon Dioxide Monitor

    SBC: AERODYNE RESEARCH INC            Topic: 11

    Although 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 ...
