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. DroN2O: A Drone-Based System for Measuring Nitrous Oxide Emissions from Agricultural Fields

    SBC: MICHIGAN AEROSPACE CORP            Topic: 1

    Michigan Aerospace Corporation proposes to develop an inexpensive system to sense nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions from agricultural fields using laser-based sensors mounted on drones. These sensors include an optical absorption cell, a wind sensor, and a camera for plant health and ground assessment. The measurements from these sensors will be combined and processed with artificial-intelligence-enab ...

  2. Multifunctional Composites for Vehicles

    SBC: TRIMER TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: 12d

    According to the U.S. Department of Energy’s Vehicle Technologies Office, a 10% reduction in vehicle weight can result in a 6% to 8% fuel-economy improvement. Replacing cast iron and traditional steel components with lightweight polymer composites can directly reduce the weight of a vehicle’s body and chassis by up to 50% and therefore reduce fuel consumption. Lightweighting in vehicle structu ...

  3. Development of Miniature, Ultra-Low Loss Superconducting Resonator Arrays

    SBC: STAR CRYOELECTRONICS, LLC            Topic: 34f

    Freedom Photonics will develop a novel, radiation hard, rugged, photonic link with Terabit per second bandwidth, which will allow data extraction from the detector systems used in high-energy and particle physics. The problem is being addressed through rad-hard photonic component design, leveraging scalability in capacity and cost through commercial foundry enabled CMOS silicon photonic technologi ...

  4. Fabrication and Testing of Advanced Fuels for Lead and Sodium Cooled Fast Reactors

    SBC: Niowave, Inc.            Topic: 37b

    To meet future energy requirements, the Generation IV International Forum charted the direction of nuclear reactor development by identifying key reactor systems for development. These new reactor systems are meant to optimize safety, efficiency, sustainability, and proliferation resistance for economically viable nuclear energy. Sodium (Na) cooled and lead (Pb) cooled reactors (LFR and SFR respec ...

  5. Wearable High-Resolution Spectroscopic Devices for Passive Source Term Characterization

    SBC: H3D INC            Topic: 37e

    The commercial nuclear power fleet, supported by the Department of Energy, has a need to accurately characterize its source term. This is critical for minimizing dose, and cost, associated with work in the plant. There are many devices that can provide personnel dosimetry, but these devices do not provide isotopic quantification and typically do not take advantage of situational awareness technolo ...

  6. Production-Ready CsPbBr3 Module Fabrication

    SBC: H3D INC            Topic: 02a

    Radiological monitoring of nuclear power plants is a constant expense for commercial nuclear facilities. It is necessary to understand chemical processes within the plant, to minimize dose to works, and to minimize outage time, all of which have important economic impacts on nuclear power production. The current tools that are available for radiological monitoring are based on radiation detection ...

  7. Compensated 4D ultrafast pulse characterization

    SBC: MESA PHOTONICS LLC            Topic: 32e

    Ultrafast lasers are used or proposed for use in many areas of accelerator applications; for example, drivers for novel accelerator concepts for future colliders and in the generation, manipulation, and x-ray seeding of electron beams. While end-to-end modeling of ultrafast laser systems is important for the development of new sources, model verification is also needed for the development of highe ...

  8. Fast Multi-Harmonic Kickers

    SBC: BROCK ROBERTS            Topic: 33c

    The next generation nuclear physics accelerator facility, the Electron Ion Collider EIC), will accelerate and collide spin polarized electrons and ions focused to an unprecedented density at their point of collision. To achieve the desired electron/ion density at the focal point, the technique of electron cooling will be applied. In this technique, the ion beam is temporarily accompanied by a high ...

  9. Development of Low-Cost In-Situ Laser Sensor for Measurement of Turbidity/Bathymetry/Flow Speed from UAVs and Ground Stations

    SBC: MICHIGAN AEROSPACE CORP            Topic: 26a

    Present, traditional devices that measure water turbidity, bathymetry, or flow velocity either must be in contact with the water being measured and/or come at a high cost and are difficult to use. The proposed work aims to develop and deploy a single low-cost laser remote sensor for measurements of turbidity, bathymetry and flow velocity. The sensing platform will be low enough in size/weight/powe ...

  10. Quantum Photon Detector for Operation in the Telecom C Band

    SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC            Topic: 06a

    Emerging technologies for achieving secure communication through the use of quantum photonic systems necessarily require the ability to detect single photons. At the same time, existing telecommunications infrastructure requires practical, high-speed components operating in the C wavelength band. There is no present-day technology capable of combining these requirements to perform practical, high- ...
