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. Stationary Wide-Angle Concentrator PV System

    SBC: GLINT PHOTONICS, INC.            Topic: DEFOA0001256

    Concentrator PV systems using highly efficient multijunction photovoltaic cells hold out the promise of very low-cost solar electricity generation, but their adoption has been hamstrung by the requirement for bulky mechanical trackers that add cost, diminish land use, increase maintenance, and exclude roof-top installations. The Stationary Wide-Angle Concentrator (SWAC) PV system will provides the ...

  4. Advanced Reusable Mandrel for Ceramic Cladding Fabrication

    SBC: CERAMIC TUBULAR PRODUCTS, LLC            Topic: 19b

    The use of advanced ceramic materials for light water reactor fuel cladding is being investigated, in part due to increased safety margins over conventional metallic claddings. In light of the Fukushima events, safety concerns have come to the forefront of public scrutiny of commercial nuclear generated power, spurring activity in this arena. While the safety benefits of advanced ceramics are al ...

  5. Additive manufacture (3d. printing) of plasma diagnostic components and assemblies for fusion experiments

    SBC: Woodruff Scientific, Inc.            Topic: 16a

    Additive manufacturing (or 3D printing) is now becoming sufficiently accurate with a large range of materials for use in printing sensors needed universally in fusion energy research. Decreasing production cost and significantly lowering design time of energy subsystems would realize significant cost reduction for standard diagnostics commonly obtained through research grants. There is now a well- ...

  6. Planar Visualization of Vapor and Liquid in a Spray Plume

    SBC: ENERGY PLUS LTD.            Topic: 07d

    In liquid fueled combustion systems it is necessary for the fuel to vaporize prior to combustion. As a result, a method to quantify the amount of vapor that exists in the spray plume is desired in order to help understand the evaporation process. Such results are also useful in validating detailed computer models of this same process. Unfortunately, such a measurement is very difficult in practi ...

  7. Solar Balance of System Cost Reduction

    SBC: Eiq Energy, Inc.            Topic: 06d

    Solar PV pricing has two primary components: hardware costs and soft costs. Hardware innovations, volume manufacturing and competition made significant effects on hardware pricing, but now hardware costs are plateaud and a fundamental change is needed to continue that downward pricing trend. While efforts continue to reduce soft and balance of system (BOS) costs, they too will plateau, especially ...

  8. High efficiency, low cost, high-temperature nanocomposite soft magnetic materials for vehicle power electronics

    SBC: AEGIS TECHNOLOGY, INC.            Topic: 07c

    Opportunities exists to use high pressure gas atomization (HPGA) to replace currently used, expensive melt-spinning for making soft magnetic nanocomposite alloy powders containing high moment -CoFe phase. The key to this development is to design advanced soft nanocomposite materials for small, lightweight vehicle power electronics, by using an innovative low cost HPGA approach to obtain high ind ...

  9. A comprehensive high performance predictive tool for fusion liquid metal hydromagnetics

    SBC: HYPERCOMP INC            Topic: 15b

    Liquid metal flows in the presence of a strong magnetic field (MHD flows) and associated heat and mass transfer represent a highly multi-physical problem whose solution is vital to US interests in liquid breeder blankets. Current modeling tools are limited to single rather than multiple effects, relatively low flow parameters, and/or simplified geometries. Databases to assist blanket design are in ...

  10. Full Wave Parallel Code for Modeling 3-D RF Fields in Hot Plasma

    SBC: Far-Tech, Inc.            Topic: 16c

    Development of an economically and environmentally attractive fusion energy source is the goal of the Fusion Energy Sciences program. One main approach for plasma heating and current drive in fusion devices is to use radio frequency (RF) waves. RF waves are used for heating and/or current drive in most magnetic plasma confinement devices, such as Tokamaks, Reversed Field Pinches, Stellarators and ...
