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. Vertical GaN transistors on bulk GaN substrates

    SBC: Avogy            Topic: 1

    In this abstract the development of vertical power transistors utilizing bulk GaN substrates with breakdown voltages of 1200V or higher, normally-off operation, and a drain current rating of 100A is proposed. These devices will feature vertical current flow, avalanche ruggedness, and a wide operating temperature range (-55 to 150°C). The target specific on-resistance for the transistor is 30x low ...

  2. 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 ...

  3. SPLATverb, a Drop-In Technology to Manage the Mountain Pine Beetle

    SBC: Isca Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 81

    The mountain pine beetle (MPB), Dendroctonus ponderosae, is one of the most destructive pests of North American forests as it attacks large lodgepole pine trees. During outbreak years, beetles mass attack these trees causing irreversible damage that leads to the death of the tree, usually within one year of a successful attack. Large acreages of pristine forests are turned into fire hazards as pre ...

  4. Dakota Learning Project: Computer-Assisted Mathematics Instruction in a Cultural Context

    SBC: JULIA GROUP, THE            Topic: 86

    The Dakota Learning Project uses computer gaming to address the problem of low mathematics achievement of American Indian children in rural persistent poverty counties. Students solve mathematical problems in a 3-D virtual world that teaches, tests and tracks. Correct answers allow students to continue game play, wrong answers route students to instructional videos, web pages or apps to teach the ...

  5. Effective Semiochemical Management of the Oriental Beetle for the Small Blueberry Grower

    SBC: Isca Technologies, Inc.            Topic: 812

    Highbush blueberry production has become an increasingly important US agricultural industry, produced by small and medium-sized farms in 35 states. There are very few pest management tools available to blueberry growers. A neuro-active neonicotinoid, is the only effective insecticide blueberry growers have to control the Oriental beetle (OrB), Anomala orientalis Waterhouse, a destructive root feed ...

  6. Scale-up of Gratuitous Inducer for Industrial Enzyme Production

    SBC: Panorama Research Incorporated            Topic: 88

    We have identified methods to produce inducers of cellulase production that will streamline the production of these enzymes for cellulosic ethanol and other applications. During Phase II of this project, we will scale up the methods, determine their applicability to commercially relevant hosts, and optimize conditions for their induction.

  7. Targeted Irrigation Management (TIM) and Initial Suite of Remotely Sensed Agronomic Tools

    SBC: HYDRO BIO            Topic: 84

    According to the USDA (2012) approximately 80% of the Nation & #39;s consumptive water use, and over 90% in many western states, is used in agriculture. Groundwater provides over 50 billion gallons per day for agricultural needs. Long term water level declines caused by sustained groundwater pumping for agriculture are impacting the environment at large and the agricultural community specifically. ...

  8. Laser-Based Sensor for Nitrate Isotope Analysis in Water Pollution Monitoring

    SBC: Los Gatos Research            Topic: 84

    In this Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) effort, Los Gatos Research (LGR) proposes to utilize its patented Off-Axis ICOS technology to develop an analyzer for the accurate determination of 15N/14N, 18O/16O, and 17O/16O isotope ratios in nitrates (d15N, d18O, and d17O). The system will employ the bacterial denitrification method to convert nitrates (NO3-) into N2O, and then utilize a mid-i ...

  9. Rapid, field-ready boron analysis

    SBC: ONDAVIA, INC.            Topic: 84

    The objective of this Phase II SBIR proposal is to develop a prototype boron measurement system for use with oil and gas produced water. Oil production is water intensive, requiring large volumes of fresh water for production, and producing even larger volumes of contaminated water. In some older California oilfields, nine barrels of contaminated water are produced for every barrel of oil. Produce ...

  10. Enhancing the Toxicity Tolerance of Microorganisms for Use in Butanol Production and Other Applications

    SBC: MICROVI BIOTECH, INC.            Topic: 88

    The production of renewable butanol has proven one of the most promising but also challenging applied research objectives of the 21st century thus far. Even as pilot demonstration and commercial efforts seek to accelerate the adoption of butanol as a biofuel and biochemical building block, fundamental issues in managing toxic and other inhibitory effects on microorganisms remain far from resolved. ...
