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. Epitaxial GaN on flexible metal tapes for low-cost transistor devices

    SBC: IBEAM MATERIALS, INC.            Topic: 1

    GaN-based devices are the basis of a variety of modern electronics applications, especially in optoelectronics and high-frequency / high-power electronics. These devices are based on epitaxial films grown on single-crystal wafers. The single-crystal wafer substrates are limiting because of their size, expense, mechanical properties and availability. If one could make GaN-based devices over large a ...

  2. Metrology for Industry for use in the Manufacture of Grazing Incidence Beam Line Mirrors

    SBC: InSync, Inc.            Topic: 04c

    Innovative, fast, ultraprecise and affordable metrology instruments are needed to ensure that grazing incidence optics can meet emerging requirements for DOE Basic Energy Sciences (BES) synchrotron and FEL x-ray light sources. Currently, there is not a suitable instrument available in the United States that will allow manufacturers to produce such demanding optics. This PH I SBIR will focus on de ...

  3. Electro-optic jitter and pulse characterization for X-ray free-electron laser sources

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 08b

    Mesa Photonics proposes a new method for online diagnostics at x-ray free electron laser facilities. This diagnostic can be fully automated, switching among alignment, jitter measurements, and pulse characterization. In this SBIR project, Mesa Photonics will develop a new diagnostic for measuring the time arrival between optical and x-ray ultrafast pulses. This technology is critical for the dev ...

  4. Inexpensive instrument for in situ cloud droplet/drizzle characterization

    SBC: VISTA PHOTONICS, INC.            Topic: 17e

    Stratus and stratocumulus clouds with low drop concentration and large drop diameter are scientifically very important, because this is the regime in which drizzle drops are formed. The formation of drizzle can lead to a rapid modification of the cloud droplet size distribution, which in turn has a strong influence on the cloud & apos;s radiative properties. Because stratus and stratocumulus cl ...

  5. Portable nitrous oxide sensor for understanding agricultural and soil emissions

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: 18c

    Nitrous oxide is the third most important greenhouse gas (GHG,) with an atmospheric lifetime of ~114 years and a global warming impact ~300 times greater than that of CO2. The main cause of nitrous oxides atmospheric increase is anthropogenic emissions, and over 80% of the current global anthropogenic flux is related to agriculture, including associated land-use change. An accurate assessment of N ...

  6. Rapid isotopic analysis using heterodyne laser induced breakdown spectroscopy

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 24a

    Isotopic analysis of suspect materials is an effective tool for identifying and characterizing nuclear. Isotope ratios of uranium, plutonium, lithium, and hydrogen are particularly informative for distinguishing fuel for nuclear power plants from weapons-grade material. Existing instrumentation capable of measuring isotope ratios to high precision and accuracy is expensive, bulky, and requires ...

  7. Gas-Bearing Centrifugal Compression System for Radionuclide Monitoring

    SBC: CREARE LLC            Topic: 26c

    Radionuclide monitoring systems are an important tool for detecting nuclear weapon tests around the world. These systems must be reliable and have low contamination potential because nuclear detonations can occur without warning and the opportunity to detect these events is relatively brief. Currently, there are no commercially available compressors that are suitable for these systems. Creare h ...

  8. Non-Invasive Bunch Length Monitor

    SBC: Electrodynamioc            Topic: 41g

    It is extremely important to understand and control the temporal characteristics of electron beams at accelerator photoinjectors. Measuring and setting the electron bunch length is critical to the operation of the accelerator, and can ultimately determine if physics experiments at user-based accelerators can be successfully performed. Many parameters affect the temporal characteristics of electro ...

  9. Optical Tomography for 3D Imaging of Fine Roots

    SBC: SOUTHWEST SCIENCES INC            Topic: 18c

    Monitoring the root systems of plants is essential to improving models of crop productivity, soil carbon sequestration and biogeochemical cycling. Fine roots (considered to be smaller than 1-2 mm in diameter) are the dominant component of this system, with roots & lt;0.2 mm in diameter often representing 50% to 95% of total root length. The plasticity and dynamism of fine ...

  10. Advanced STJ Spectrometer for X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy at the Synchrotron

    SBC: STAR CRYOELECTRONICS, LLC            Topic: 18c

    X-ray absorption spectroscopy is a widely used experimental technique for studying the composition and chemistry of materials and is one of the driving forces behind the explosive growth of synchrotron light sources and their increase in brightness by many orders of magnitude. However, advances in detector technology have not kept pace with advances in synchrotron brightness, leading to limitation ...
