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. ADAPTIVE GRID TECHNIQUES FOR USE IN COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS

    SBC: Computational Mechan            Topic: N/A

    THIS PROJECT FOCUSES ON THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES OF ALL OF COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS: 1) HOW GOOD ARE THE NUMERICAL ANSWERS OBTAINED IN A COMPUTATION? AND 2) HOW CAN THE BEST POSSIBLE ANSWERS BE OBTAINED FOR A FIXED AND LIMITED COMPUTATIONAL EFFORT, BUDGET, OR COMPUTING CAPABILITY? IN GENERAL TERMS THE ANSWERS TO THESE QUESTIONS ARE 1) TO DETERMINE RELIABLE A-POSTERIORI ESTIMATES OF ERROR ...

  2. Advanced Coating Evaluation Metrics

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: AF161113

    The cost of corrosion for Air Force aircraft and missiles is estimated to be $5.7 billion per the 2018 LMI Cost of Corrosion report. The first line of defense and single most important factor in controlling structural corrosion of aircraft is the protective coating system. Advance coating performance test systems have been developed that measure the failure modes of greatest concern for aircraft s ...

  3. Advanced Solar Cell Metallization

    SBC: APPLIED NANOTECH, INC.            Topic: AF171070

    We propose a resilient silver flake based metallization technology directly printable onto multijunction solar cells. The metallization will be loaded with carbon nanotubes to improve crack resilience. We will demonstrate that we can maintain connectivity (< 5% performance degradation) of a printed front-side metal layer across a gap up to 30 microns. In Phase I, we demonstrated metal line resisti ...

  4. ANALYSIS OF PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS TO SUPPORT BIOFEEDBACK CONTROL MECHANISMS

    SBC: Transform Index Technologies            Topic: N/A

    THE PURPOSE OF THE PROPOSED RESEARCH IS TO DEMONSTRATE A SOFTWARE SYSTEM THAT MAKES CORRELATIONAL/FACTOR TYPE ANALYSES OF LARGE DATA BASES PRACTICAL ON MICROCOMPUTER-CLASS MACHINES, AND IS ABLE TO COMPUTE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PSYCHOPHYSIOLOGICAL MEASUREMENTS AT A SPEED THAT MAKES REAL-TIME FEEDBACK CONTROL MECHANISMS POSSIBLE. THE SOFTWARE PROTOTYPE DEVELOPED WILL ACCESS A DATA BASE COMPOSED OF A W ...

  5. A Novel Cost-effective Low temperature copper inks for flexible hybrid electronics and conformal antennas

    SBC: TEXAS BIOCHEMICALS INC            Topic: AF181059

    Advantageously, nanoparticle-based inks have lower curing temperatures than those typical for bulk curing. A low-temperature and air-stable copper solution enables high performance and lower-cost metallization when deposited on substrates including fabric, cellulose, and plastics. In Phase-I, Texas Biochemicals fulfilled concept goals by developing novel, environmentally-benign and cost-effective ...

  6. Anti-Reflective Surface structures for Infrared Non-linear Materials

    SBC: NANOHMICS INC            Topic: AF18AT016

    High-power, high-efficiency, broadly-tunable coherent sources in the mid-wave infrared (MWIR, λ=3–5 μm) spectral band are coveted for applications relating to infrared (IR) countermeasures, remote chemical sensing, and free-space optical communication. MWIR sources based on optical nonlinear frequency conversion can generate broadly-tunable kilowatt-level coherent radiation over the e ...

  7. Applications Using New Satellite Communications Constellations

    SBC: AVL TECHNOLOGIES INC            Topic: AF172009

    This proposal outlines the development of an Active Electronically Steered Antenna (AESA) for use on airborne platforms as an integrated communications terminal. The hardware produced in this effort is intended to support the Global Network Access Terminal (GNAT) whereby the AESA terminal will support connectivity through Ka band commercial SATCOM providers such that it operates as a “modem ...

  8. A REAL-TIME 3-D CLOUD SIMULATION SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT

    SBC: Aeromet, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    THIS PROPOSAL DESCRIBES A FEASIBILITY STUDY FOR IMPLEMENTING A REALTIME, THREE-DIMENSIONAL CLOUD MODEL TO SUPPORT REENTRY VEHICLE TEST OPERATIONS. AN EXISTING RESEARCH CLOUD MODEL WOULD BE INTERFACED TO A MESOSCALE ATMOSPHERIC MODEL. THE COMBINED MODELING SYSTEM WOULD BE ADAPTED FOR USE AT THE KWAJALEIN MISSILE RANGE (KMR). FORECASTS OF DETAILED CLOUD FEATURES SUCH AS WATER CONTENT, RADAR REFLECTI ...

  9. Assisted Data Analysis for Portable Nondestructive Inspection

    SBC: TEXAS RESEARCH INSTITUTE , AUSTIN, INC.            Topic: AF181050

    Manual ultrasonic inspection (UT) or eddy current inspection (ET) of complex aircraft structures often requires inspector interpretation of complex signals on a screen while at the same time performing manual manipulation of the inspection probe. This proposal provides a path to automated, real time assistance to inspectors while they perform these complex tasks. For this effort TRI Austin has tea ...

  10. Atlas Fulcrum

    SBC: Second Front Systems, Inc.            Topic: AF183005

    The non-traditional technology market and dual-use ecosystem produce thousands of technologies and companies each year. Funded and developed by private capital, these technologies have significant application in the military – but only if military users can find and assess them. To effectively bring these technologies to bear on military missions, users need to accomplish five key activitie ...
