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. Developing data standards for accelerated digital R&D of semiconductor materials from nanoscale

    SBC: EXABYTE INC.            Topic: 2

    Semiconductors electronics is integral to America’s economic and national security as manifested by the CHIPS act. Ever-increasing materials requirements for semiconductor R&D, combined with the advent of machine learning, and availability of materials databases, pose a need to understand and exploit these methods for acceleration of the materials and manufacturing lifecycle. The proposal aims t ...

  2. Materials for Gravure Printing of Chemical Gas Sensors

    SBC: INTERLINK ELECTRONICS, INC            Topic: 2

    From 2012-2015 the world’s first printed amperometric gas sensors were developed at KWJ Engineering Inc. as the subject of an NSF SBIR. The patented technology was used to found SPEC-sensor LLC and obtain commercial funds. More than one million sensors have been sold using SPEC’s patented designs, which led to the recent acquisition by Interlink Electronics, Inc. The next challenge is to grow ...

  3. On-Chip Cold Cathode Electron Sources for X-Ray Generation & Imaging: Advancing a NIST-Patented Technology

    SBC: JULIA JEAN, LLC            Topic: 2

    Over a decade ago, scientists at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) invented a cold cathode electron field emitter with the potential to disrupt the state of the art for imaging and communications systems. NIST showed that these devices, comprising nanoporous silicon carbide structures of various hierarchical shapes, can emit electrons from their surfaces purely by applicati ...

  4. DIGITAL TV-BASED POSITIONING FOR FIRST RESPONDER TRACKING IN GPS-DENIED ENVIRONMENTS

    SBC: TIAMI LLC            Topic: 1

    An area significantly lacking in first responder situational awareness is accurate responder location within various types of building structures above ground and underground such as tunnels and basements where GPS coverage is unavailable. GPS alternatives that rely on pre-deployed infrastructure such as indoor WiFi or mobile wireless networks or require the deployment of uncrewed aerial vehicles ...

  5. A Low-cost Portable Short Wavelength Infrared Spectrometer

    SBC: STRATIO INC            Topic: 2

    Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) technology has the ability to make characteristics of objects that are invisible to the naked eye visible. However, the widespread use of this technology has been hindered by the high cost and complicated interface of existing technology. Stratio, Inc. (Stratio)’s portable spectrometer Linksquare has integrated various elements into a single component from hardware to a ...

  7. Digital TV-based Positioning for First Responder Tracking in GPS-Denied Environments

    SBC: TIAMI LLC            Topic: 1

    Real-time tracking of the position of first responders in indoor environments without Global Positioning System (GPS) coverage or other predeployed infrastructure is a challenging task. In this SBIR Phase I effort, Tiami LLC proposes the use of public digital TV (DTV) stations as positioning beacons for three-dimensional indoor tracking in GPS-denied environments. DTV stations provide near-ubiquit ...

  8. Materials for Gravure Printing of Chemical Gas Sensors

    SBC: KWJ ENGINEERING INC            Topic: 2

    From 2012-2015 the world’s first printed amperometric gas sensors were developed at KWJ Engineering Inc. as the subject of an NSF SBIR. The patented technology was used to found SPEC-sensor LLC and obtain commercial funds. More than 1 million sensors have been sold and SPEC-sensor LLC is today a viable and growing stand-alone company. The next challenge is to grow sensor production output to 10- ...

  9. Innovative Emulsion Polymerization Manufacture of Dual-Function, Nanoscale, Calibration Spheres Over the Range of 100 to 400 nm Diameter

    SBC: COLLOIDAL METRICS CORPORATION            Topic: 2

    This proposal seeks to extend the Company’s existing ability to manufacture 100 nm polystyrene latex (PSL) size standards to include 200 and 400 nm latexes. We also propose to add accurate particle concentration data to all the size standards. A given, dual-function product will serve as both a size standard and a particle concentration reference material. Both these end uses require the latex p ...
