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. High Voltage Capacitors for DC-Link Applications

    SBC: SIGMA TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC.            Topic: 01b

    A high energy density capacitor with superior life and reliability will be developed that is a key component of power semiconductor inverter circuits, used in automotive hybrid and electric vehicles, rail transit, wind power generators, photovoltaics, and transportable energy storage systems for grid applications.

  2. Low-Cost, High Efficiency Integration of Solid-State Lighting and Building Controls Using a Packet Energy Transfer (PET) Power Distribution System

    SBC: VoltServer            Topic: 03a

    Solid state lighting has not yet taken off in commercial buildings due to its high relative installed cost. On a normalized basis, solid state lighting replacement lamps are on the order of two times more expensive than equivalent compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), and five times more expensive than an equivalent downlight fixture. An additional barrier relates to the performance and cost of the dr ...

  3. Filament-Based Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for the Standoff Detection of Radiological Materials

    SBC: PHYSICS, MATERIALS, AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS RESEARCH L.L.C.            Topic: 49a

    An improved method is needed for the detection of radiological materials for nuclear nonproliferation and safety. Current techniques using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS), while robust, are limited in range due to pulse energy and diffraction. Furthermore, atmospheric broadening of the spectral lines reduces the sensitivity of the detection scheme, such as optical emission spectroscopy ...

  4. HV Storage Capacitors for High Current Pulse Power Applications

    SBC: SIGMA TECHNOLOGIES INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC.            Topic: 34f

    Solid-state power electronic circuits that incorporate switching devices such as IGBTs, IGCTs and MOSFETs can now operate at voltages as high as 3KV to 6.0+KV with peak currents of 0.5-6.0+KA. Modulators built with various topologies require high voltage, energy storage capacitors, that can operate at the same voltage and current as the switching devices. Presently such capacitors a ...

  5. Surface metrology for x-ray mirrors using deflectometry

    SBC: ARIZONA OPTICAL SYSTEMS, LLC            Topic: 04c

    The performance and productivity of DOE synchrotron systems is hindered due to focusing limitations from imperfections in the mirror surfaces. The ability to manufacture higher quality mirrors is directly limited by the accuracy and efficiency of the systems used to measure them. Currently available measurement methods do not provide the manufacturing feedback or quality control to allow efficien ...

  6. High-Performance Proton Exchange Membranes for Electrolysis Cells

    SBC: AMSEN TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: 13a

    Improvements in performance of the components are needed for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzers, which is one of the key technologies for DOEs hydrogen production plan. In particular, high- performance ion-exchange membranes are needed that can withstand significantly higher mechanical loads due to high-pressure operation, while having significantly reduce hydrogen permeability and i ...

  7. New Approaches to Improved PEM Electrolyzer Ion Exchange Membranes

    SBC: TETRAMER TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: 13a

    Electrolyzer systems produce high value hydrogen on demand and on site, thus eliminating costly delivery and storage cylinders of hydrogen gas. The potential commercial market applications are projected to be in the $100 billion range by 2017 and are focused in the areas of industrial gas, transportation fueling, and backup power for renewable energy storage. However, the rate of growth of electro ...

  8. Novel manned/unmanned aircraft conversion for Arctic research

    SBC: L3 Latitude, LLC            Topic: 17g

    There is a clear requirement for gathering greater quantity and quality of atmospheric data in the Arctic regions. The harsh nature of the environment combined with remote location creates the need for technological solutions. Current efforts have successfully used small unmanned aerial systems (UAS); however, a large cost in both time and money is incurred when miniaturizing sensors to fit with ...

  9. 100 W Mode-locked Green Laser for GaAs Photoemission Guns

    SBC: ADVALUE PHOTONICS INC            Topic: 38e

    To address the DOE need for a high-power laser source used for synchronous photoinjection of GaAs photoemission guns, AdValue Photonics proposes to develop a radio-frequency (RF) synchronized 100W green fiber laser source with a repetition rate near 1GHz. Although GHz-rate mode-locked solid-state/fiber lasers in the near infrared have been previously demonstrated, which could be used as ...

  10. High Spatial Resolution Ultrafast Sum-Frequency Generation Microscope

    SBC: PHYSICS, MATERIALS, AND APPLIED MATHEMATICS RESEARCH L.L.C.            Topic: 07a

    Vibrationally resonant sum-frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy is a second order nonlinear optical technique that features high chemical selectivity and a set of selection rules that makes it an ideal complement to coherent Raman scattering (CRS) as an imaging tool. Attempts have been made to construct high-resolution, high speed SFG microscopes, but to date both the resolving power and image ...
