Award Data
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.

Multi-Channel Readout IC for Nuclear Physics Experiments
SBC: ALPHACORE INC Topic: 24bReadout integrated circuits (ROICs) for Nuclear Physics science experiments are very expensive and generally have performance flaws that make it difficult to collect all the data that researchers seek from the detectors that they use in their facilities. General statement of how this problem or situation is being addressed. Alphacore is developing multi-channel ROICs that have high performance, ad ...

Large Parts Additive Manufacturing
SBC: ATS-MER, LLC Topic: 18bModern fossil fuel energy production requires large scale machines with big size componentry. Such processes require using high temperatures and thus, chemically stable materials resistant against creep, wear, and high temperature oxidation. Manufacturing large size parts from high temperature alloys runs in many challenges related to chemical homogeneity/ phase composition stability and microstru ...

High Value Carbon Products from Domestic Coal
SBC: ATS-MER, LLC Topic: 18cOutside of fuel and heat value of domestic coal there are very limited applications to manufacture carbon products including the byproduct coal tar pitch (CTP) which is a high value feedstock to produce high value carbon products whose value exceeds the fuel and heat values of the coal. There is no current domestic producer of CTP in spite of its value to produce battery anodes, graphite fibers, c ...

High-Speed Radiation-Hard Optical Transceivers for Particle Detectors
SBC: ALPHACORE INC Topic: 27dWhile commercial, advanced optical transceivers can transmit data rates beyond 100Gb/s, they will not function in the high radiation environment present at the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). These data transmission technologies are also too massive to be placed inside the HL-LHC detectors, where added mass degrades the measurements being made. The top custom-designed radiation-har ...
