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.

  2. Material Surface Properties Modifications by Nonequilibrium Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Processing

    SBC: ATMOSPHERIC PLASMA SOLUTIONS, INC.            Topic: AF05T028

    The proposed research will develop a non-equilibrium plasma source for deposition of thin films on refractory materials at temperatures less then 600K. The developed source will also have the flexibility to surface treat thermally sensitive substrates without damage. Our existing non-equilibrium atmospheric plasma source will be optimized for depositing amorphous SiC and ZrO2 thermal barrier mat ...

  3. Understanding and Control of the Structure of Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes Produced in Laser Plasma

    SBC: XINTEK, INC.            Topic: AF05T005

    The exceptional properties of carbon nanotubes that have prompted potential applications rely on their atomic structure. While the sensitivity of nanotube properties on structural features has been extensively investigated through theoretical analysis and numerical simulations, in practice there is no still effective control of the atomic structure of nanotubes in any of the current synthesis tech ...

  4. Insensitive Munitions Booster Explosives

    SBC: RADIATION EFFECTS RESEARCH ASSOCIATES, INC            Topic: AF05145

    This proposal will develop a booster explosive formulation with a polymetric binder system that will show output improvement over the PBXN-5 explosive performance. The development of the formulation in Phase I will include CL-20 and the polymetric binder system HyTemp 4454. Other binder systems will also be considered if they show a technological advantage. The formulation proposed for research & ...

  5. Liquid Rocket Engine Heat Transfer Tools

    SBC: En'urga Inc.            Topic: AF05202

    This Phase I project will evaluate the feasibility of utilizing mid-infrared hyperspectral emission tomography for estimating the temperature of the hot gases near the wall as well as the temperature of the wall in a rocket engine combustor. The hyperspectral emission measurements at the water vapor and carbon dioxide bands will be deconvoluted using a Maximum Likelihood Estimation method of the ...

  6. Rotary Wing UAV for Bomb Impact Assessment within an Urban Environment

    SBC: Lite Machines Corporation            Topic: AF05164

    Warfare within a city is a difficult business not only because of the abundance of man-made obstacles, but because the effects of bomb strikes are difficult to measure. Reconnoitering at low altitude and close range by a manned aircraft is often prohibitively dangerous because of the lack of maneuvering room and the high probability of hostile fire. A small, unobtrusive UAV (unmanned aerial vehicl ...

  7. Novel Structural Joining Concepts Using 3-D Textile Preforms and Composites

    SBC: 3TEX, Inc.            Topic: AF05248

    Strength and durability of commonly used bonded and bolted composite-to-composite and composite-to-metal structural joints suffer from sharp geometry variations, mismatch of elastic moduli, Poisson's ratios, coefficients of thermal expansion and thermal conductivity of the adherends, altogether causing high stress concentration and premature joint failure. The proposed work introduces several nove ...

  8. Cold Cathode for Traveling Wave Tubes

    SBC: POWER TECHNOLOGY SERVICES (PTS), INC.            Topic: AF05001

    A novel method of creating hot electrons via a pn junction will be used to eject electrons from a cold cathode. The accelerated electrons will have suficient energy to surmont the work function and surface dipole. The cold cathode will be used in a new type of minature Traveling Wave Tube or "Twystrode". Advanced semiconductor materials with low work functions will be produced and evaluated as pla ...

  9. Helicopter Aircrew Restraint

    SBC: WOLF TECHNICAL SERVICES INC            Topic: AF05052

    The purpose of this project is to develop magnetic technology to be incorporated into aircrew restraint system designs that will address limitations of current restraint systems in protecting crewmembers in the full range of dynamic flight environments. The new restraint technology will supply a continuum of restraint level that will automatically adapt to the severity of the flight dynamics of t ...

  10. Carbon Nanotube Based Electron Field Emission Cathodes for Traveling Wave Tubes

    SBC: XINTEK, INC.            Topic: AF05001

    The conventional thermionic cathodes used in traveling wave tubes (TWTs) suffer from many technical limitations including limited current density, poor energy efficiency, difficulty of control, and lack of miniaturization. Xintek, Inc. has developed proprietary technologies for fabrication of high performance field emission cold cathodes based on carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Our CNT cathodes tested at ...
