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. HOLOGRAPHIC PATTERN RECOGNITION FOR ARMS CONTROL

    SBC: EMPIRICAL TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION            Topic: N/A

    THE CONTRACTOR HAS PATENTED TECHNOLOGY FOR A UNIQUE PROCESS THAT DIRECTLY CONVERTS AN ACOUSTIC SIGNAL INTO A VISIBLE ONE IN REAL-TIME WITHOUT ELECTRONIC CIRCUITRY. THIS RELIES ON THE ACOUSTO-OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF A CONTINUOUS LAYER OF LIQUID CRYSTAL THIN FILM LAYER WHICH SERVES AS BOTH THE SENSOR AND THE DISPLAY. THE IMAGE CAN BE VIEWED DIRECTLY BY MEANS OF CCD CAMERA. HOLOGRAPHY PROVIDES FOR BOTH ...

  3. Development of a Two Reference Beam Holographic Technique to Measure the Density Distribution in a Plasma Opening Switch

    SBC: HY-Tech Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    A GOOD MODEL FOR PREDICTING THE CONDUCTION AND OPENING CHARACTERISTICS OF PLASMA OPENING SWITCHES IS REQUIRED IF SWITCH- ES CURRENTLY IN USE ARE TO BE SCALED UP TO THE CURRENT AND VOLTAGE RATINGS REQUIRED BY THE FAMILY OF THREAT SIMULATOR. EMPIRICAL VERIFICATION OF THE NUMEROUS MODELS WHICH HAVE EVOLVED AROUND DIFFERENT CONDUCTION PROCESSES HAVE MET WITH LIMITED SUCCESS BECAUSE SWITCH CHARACTERIST ...

  4. Development of a Differential Interferometric Technique for Measuring Magnetic Field Profiles in a Plasma Radiation Source

    SBC: HY-Tech Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    The current distribution in plasma radiation sources is both a yardstick for measuring the coupling efficiency of the generator, and a means of studying the implosion dynamics of the load. Since the current distribution cannot be directly measured, it must be deduced from the magnetic field profile. Magnetic field distributions, based on the Faraday rotation of polarized laser light, are typical ...

  5. EMP AND HPM SUPPRESSION TECHNIQUES

    SBC: Integrated Sciences            Topic: N/A

    Survival of present day microelectronic circuits depends on their protection from self generated and external electromagnetic interference. This proposal is oriented toward the class of interference generally referred to as overvoltage transients. Means for mitigating these transients include gas discharge tubes, and various solid state devices. Each of these has their own advantages in particu ...

  6. Separation of Carrier Lifetime from Interface Recombination Velocity

    SBC: INTERFACE STUDIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project will separate minority-carrier lifetime measurements on Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) wafers. We have already implemented an effective carrier lifetime measurement to characterize SOI samples as thin as 50 nm. this proposal will improve our non-invasive probe of the electrical quality of semiconductor wafers to explicityly and separately chara ...

  7. LONGWAVE ELECTROMAGNETIC SENSOR FOR COUNTERPROLIFERATION ACTIVITIES

    SBC: Pacific-sierra Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    We propose to design a compact, multiple purpose electromagnetic sensor for monitoring the extremely low frequency (ELF), very low frequency (VLF), and low frequency (LF) spectrum. Our goal is to design a modular, low cost sensor capable of being configured for multiple applications and capable of being employed in remote, unattended sensor networks. We describe three applications or scenarios t ...

  8. Speed-Accuracy Measures for Distributed Interactive Simulation of Nuclear Weapons Effects

    SBC: Pacific-sierra Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    Using distributed interactive simulation (DIS) to conduct effective training, analyses, or mission support in a tactical nuclear weapons effects (NWE) environment requires realistic computer generated forces (CGF) that are sensitive to such effects. This level of sensitivity requires CGF to apply valid and reliable speed-accuracy measures of environmental effects on human performance within the D ...

  9. IMPROVEMENTS IN MOTOR OPERATED GATE VALVE DESIGN AND PREDICTIVE MODELS FOR RELIABILITY IMPROVEMENTS IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANT SAFETY SYSTEMS

    SBC: KALSI ENGINEERING, INC            Topic: N/A

    MOTOR OPERATED GATE VALVE OPERABILITY PROBLEMS AND FAILURES AT NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS ARE A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AS STATEDIN NRC IE BULLETIN 85-03 AND GENERIC LETTER 89-10. THIS PROPOSAL IS AIMED AT IMPROVING GATE VALVE PERFORMANCE BY (1) DEVELOPING COMPREHENSIVE PERFORMANCE PREDICTION MODELS FOR USE OVER A RANGE OF OPERATING CONDITIONS, (2) DEFINING LIMITS, BASED ON SPECIFIC DESIGNS, BEYOND WHICH E ...
