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. SBIR Phase II: Hydrothermal Growth of Ultra-High Performance Nd:YVO4 Laser Crystals

    SBC: ADVANCED PHOTONIC CRYSTALS, LLC            Topic: N/A

    This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II project will focus on the development of a commercial process for the growth of Neodymium Yttrium Vanadate (Nd: YVO4) single crystals for use in solid-state lasers. This research will generate the commercially viable conditions for growth of large boules of single crystals suitable for use in diode pumped solid-state lasers. The hydrothermal ...

  2. SBIR Phase I: Homogeneous, High-Efficiency TiO2 and YVO4 Birefringent Crystals

    SBC: ADVANCED PHOTONIC CRYSTALS, LLC            Topic: N/A

    This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR)Phase I project will prove that homogeneous, low-loss TiO2 and YVO4 crystals can be produced via commercially viable hydro-thermal crystal growth processes. Recently, a program to grow homogeneous YVO4 and TiO2 birefringent crystals using hydro-thermal growth methods had preliminary results that indicate that these crystals can be grown in hydro-therma ...

  3. SBIR Phase I: Attachment Interface Design for an Advanced Composite Power Transmission Cable

    SBC: APPLIED THERMAL SCIENCES            Topic: N/A

    This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop and demonstrate an attachment interface for an advanced carbon composite transmission conductor for electrical power. The attachment will interface with existing power transmission hardware and techniques. In the project the tasks will involve reviewing existing techniques for composite cable connections, possibly from oth ...

  4. Converting Sawmill Waste Stream Material into Higher Value Solid Wood Products Using a "Total Solution Recovery and Value-Adding Strategy"

    SBC: Auburn Machinery, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: The Sawmill industry is facing a number of serious problems that are undermining its stability as a key industry in many rural areas of the United States. The top ten problems facing the industry are: (1) A declining access to timberlands in some areas, (2) Higher saw log costs, (3) Lower saw log quality, (4) Greater residue disposal problems, (5) Fluctuating lumber pricing, ...

  6. Off c-Axis Bulk Crystal Growth of Silicon Carbide

    SBC: BANDGAP TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    The development of a process to produce bulk silicon carbide (SiC) boules with alternate crystallographic orientations, specifically the a-orientation, which is perpendicular to the normally-grown c-orientation crystal, offers significant improvements inthe SiC semiconductor electronic properties. Specifically, the electron mobility will increase by a factor of five for 4H-SiC, and the thermal co ...

  7. Growth of Large Diameter Silicon Carbide Boules

    SBC: BANDGAP TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Absence of low defect density large diameter (~100 mm) silicon carbide (SiC) wafers is a major barrier for the commercial production of SiC-based devices. Hence, the development of a process to produce large diameter bulk SiC boules with low defectdensity offers a significant impetus for the widespread commercialization of SiC-based devices. An approach that will simultaneously increase wafer di ...

  8. Gallium Nitride (GaN) Device Technology Enhancements Leading to Advanced Transmit/Receive (T/R) Modules for Radar Performance Enhancement

    SBC: Belford Research, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    We propose to increase the mobility of both n- and p-type GaN by applying tensile strain and fixing the strain by bonding to an appropriate heat sink material. Straining in other semiconductor materials is now recognized as a viable route to higherperformance. We have demonstrated in these systems how low-level strain (0.05%) can increase mobility by a factor of two. Increases were larger for p-ty ...

  9. SBIR Phase I: Ge-Free Strained Silicon Via dTCE Bonding (Differential Thermal Coefficient of Expansion Bonding)

    SBC: Belford Research, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I propose to combine the technologies of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) manufacture with strain-inducing wafer bonding to produce Strained-Si On Insulator (SSOI) wafers. Silicon-based devices with silicon/germanium (Si/Ge) heterostructures have been extensively researched and this has lead to the discovery that tensile strained silicon exhibits s ...
