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. Comprehensible Descriptions for Fast Processing of Image Data

  2. Ultrafine HfC/TaC for Rocket Thrusters

    SBC: MATERIALS MODIFICATIONS INC            Topic: N/A

    Liquid rocket engine performance can be dramatically improved by increasing the wall temperatures for operation concurrent with a reduction in the component weight. The bipropellant fuel combustion temperatures are between 3000 "approx" 3500 C. The conventional thrusters and exit nozzles made of niobium alloys have a maximum operating temperature limit of 1600 C. A regenerative cooling technolo ...

  3. Ultrafine SiC for Optical Mirrors

    SBC: MATERIALS MODIFICATIONS INC            Topic: N/A

    SiC has exceptionally high thermal conductivity and low linear expansion coefficient to resist thermal distortion, high elastic modulus to resist pressure and bowing distortion. It is lightweight and wear resistant. It also has excellent corrosion resistance and outstanding load bearing characteristics at elevated temperatures. Its hardness is only surpassed by diamond, CBN and boron carbide. As ...

  4. Nanomaterials for Thermal Management of Electronics

    SBC: MATERIALS MODIFICATIONS INC            Topic: N/A

    As electronic packaging densities increase, more heat is being generated per unit area. The reliability of electronic components is, therefore, increasingly dependent on the ability to transfer heat. Current chip performance is limited in keeping up with the increased power densities, 30% of which is attributed to packaging materials. The disadvantages of current methods of fabrication of thermal ...

  5. Frequency-Doubling Millimeter-Wave Amplifier

    SBC: MICROWAVE TECHNOLGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    We propose the experimental investigation of a frequency-doubling millimeter-wave amplifier (MWA) that has diverse applications such as short-wavelength radiation sources for sensors and associated systems. The MWA is proposed as a very compact, light-weight RF source in which an electron beam is injected into a deflection cavity operating at the drive frequency. A transverse magnetic field produc ...

  6. Liquid Melt Focused Beam Spray Process

    SBC: RESODYN CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    The innovation presented in this proposal involves the use of a liquid melt thermal spray process for cost effective rapid prototyping of near-net shape tooling for the lay up of advanced composite materials. The process uses a focused beam of charged liquid droplets to form tooling directly from three-dimensional computer generated drawings eliminating traditional steps associated with fabricatio ...

  7. Novel Technology for Electronic Multilayer Devices

    SBC: Sumi Tech, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    A novel technological approach was recently devised by Sumi Tech engineers to fabricate multilayer electronic components, which enables the manufacture of devices with very high volumetric efficiency and reliability. Inexpensive electrode materials such as copper, or aluminum are potential candidates, since the process takes place at relatively low ambient temperature (e.g., less than 400 C), thus ...

  8. Pulsed High Energy Synthesis of Fine Metal Powders

    SBC: UTRON, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Demand for micrometer size metal powders is increasing rapidly as new technologies emerge which can make use of their unique characteristics. One rapidly growing application requiring such powders is metal injection molding, a powder metallurgy process for forming near-net-shape components with higher dimensional accuracy than earlier processes. A significant need also exists for micrometer size s ...

  9. Fast Thermal Calculations for Responsive Targets in Support of Real-Time Scene Generation

    SBC: MODERN TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, INC.            Topic: MDA10T003

    In order to provide the required simulation frame rates we propose to decouple the incident flux calculations from a simple thermal response model. We propose to develop a table-lookup methodology based on high fidelity precomputed environmental and eventually aerothermal fluxes which can be draw in real time to drive the thermal response model. A simple 1-D thermal calculation based on an analyt ...

  10. MBE CdTe on Compliant Substrates for High Performance IRFPAs

    SBC: EPIR TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: MDA11T002

    Current state-of-the-art infrared focal plane arrays are based on HgCdTe grown on bulk CdZnTe substrates. The use of Si-based substrates would eliminate a number of drawbacks related to the HgCdTe/CdZnTe system and permit larger formats. We have developed growth protocols that produce material with good crystal quality for such a highly mismatched heteroepitaxial system. Double crystal rocking c ...
