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. Project OWL Phase II STTR

    SBC: OWL Integrations, Inc.            Topic: AF20ATCSO1

    A resilient network infrastructure for communications and sensing provides invaluable context for command, control, and situational awareness.  As adversaries develop sophisticated networking their ability to attack and inhibit our own similarly grows.  As a consequence, it is critical to develop innovative secure, isolated, encrypted, and self-configuring and self-healing networks that can be q ...

  2. ENHANCE II – Enabling Hybrid Anodes with Nano-Carbon Electrodes II

    SBC: CELLEC TECHNOLOGIES, INC            Topic: AF19AT014

    The objective of this research program is to develop an ultra-lightweight carbon nanotube-lithium metal (CNT-Li) hybrid anode to enable high energy density lithium ion cells. These CNT-Li anodes will be paired with carbon nanotube enhanced high areal loading (mAh/cm2) cathodes to achieve cell-level energy densities that exceed 400 Wh/kg at the cell-level.  Electrode engineering will be used to mo ...

  3. Satellite Constellations for Entanglement-Based Time Distribution

    SBC: Xairos Systems, Inc.            Topic: AF20AT001

    This project examines the feasibility of using a space-based quantum network for secure and accurate time transfer. The design and analysis of a space based quantum network that can support time transfer is expected to show that a relatively small modification of the current designs for quantum payloads could provide large benefits in the form of a highly accurate, non-spoofable time transfer inf ...

  4. Compact, high-performance optical clockwork for quantum timing

    SBC: VESCENT PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: AF20AT001

    Vescent Photonics, LLC (Vescent) in collaboration with MIT Lincoln Laboratory (MIT-LL) proposes to develop a compact, low-phase-noise optical frequency comb (OFC) stabilized to a novel, fiber-based, ultra-narrow linewidth reference laser that will meet the Air Force’s needs for a high performance, fieldable clock. OFCs are a core tool of quantum timing, enabling a range of new technologies criti ...

  5. Highly Manufacturable Qubits at 300 mm Wafer Scale

    SBC: SEEQC, INC.            Topic: AF20AT003

    The team of SeeQC, Inc. and SUNY Poly (NY CREATES) aims to develop highly manufacturable superconducting fluxonium qubits at a 300 mm wafer scale. Fluxoniums have a significant advantage over the widely used transmons by having higher coherence times and anharmonicity leading to the higher fidelity gates. The fabrication of fluxoniums is challenging for university shared fabrication facilities.  ...

  6. Real-time polarization compensation and rapid Bell-state analysis through long-distance quantum channels

    SBC: Qunnect, Inc.            Topic: AF20AT004

    Optical quantum communications encodes information in the polarization state of single photons. This presents numerous challenges for designing practical protocols which must contend with misaligned measurement reference frames, owing to physical orientations and birefringence effects. Such effects cannot simply be corrected through multiplexing strong classical reference signals with the single-p ...

  7. Robust and portable optical oscillators with 10^-15-level stability

    SBC: STABLE LASER SYSTEMS INC            Topic: AF20AT001

    We propose to develop optical oscillators with instabilities in the 10^-15 decade suitable for a range of out-of-the-laboratory applications, including remotely located stations, moving vehicles and space platforms. Cavity-stabilized optical oscillators provide orders-of-magnitude better stability than current rf and microwave oscillators, and are essential for optical atomic clocks. However, they ...

  8. Robust and low-SWaP Laser Sources for Optical Atomic Clocks

    SBC: STABLE LASER SYSTEMS INC            Topic: AF20AT001

    This proposal will develop a monolithic, robust, low size, weight and power, 1 GHz repetition rate femtosecond oscillator and frequency comb for microwave generation from optical atomic clocks. The oscillator has been tested in the laboratory, being constructed using prototype bonding methods. The results have been exceptional with low phase noise, long lock times with low bandwidth control loo ...

  9. ACADIANA (Annotating Code for Assured Data Intent to Avoid Novel Attacks)

    SBC: ASSURED INFORMATION SECURITY, INC.            Topic: HR001120S0019001

    In the ACADIANA effort we will address the inability of modern programming language, operating system, and architectural abstractions to provide a baseline level of adequate confidentiality protections.  Until now, developers and users of software have largely relied on their programming language and operating system to ensure that confidential data isn’t leaked out of a process’ memory space ...

  10. Miniature Turbo-Rankine Power System for Arctic Buoys

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: N20AT023

    Creare will develop a self-sustaining power system for persistent sensors and communication equipment on buoys deployed in remote locations. This system will provide electric power continuously from naturally occurring temperature differences that exist between ambient air and water in environments such as the Arctic Ocean. Generating power directly from these temperature differences uses the atmo ...
