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. CRYOCOOLER FOR HIGH ACCELERATION SYSTEMS

    SBC: Alabama Cryogenic Engineering, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    A CRYOCOOLER CAPABLE OF OPERATING UNDER EXTREMELY HIGH ACCELERATION LEVELS IS PROPOSED. THE CRYOCOOLER USES THE LINDE-HAMPSON CYCLE, AND CAN REACH APPROXIMATELY 80 KELVIN. MULTI-STAGE UNITS, TO REACH LOWER TEMPERATURES, ARE ALSO POSSIBLE.

  2. Advanced Scene Generation Techniques

    SBC: CG2, Inc.            Topic: MDA03003

    In Phase II of this project, we will build and demonstrate a COTS-based infrared scene generation system that utilizes multiple graphics processing units operating in parallel with pixel level timing synchronization. Current and future defense system technologies are being designed with performance characteristics and capabilities which make them challenging to adequately test in a hardware-in-th ...

  3. Enhanced Electromagnetic Effects-

    SBC: GOMEZ RESEARCH ASSOCIATES INC            Topic: A02206

    In modern Department of Defense (DOD) and Missile Defense Agency (MDA) Radar and Communications Systems, it has been shown that two of the most costly requirements are the effective radiated power (ERP) and target Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). For MDA radar systems estimates of up to $50M per added dB of SNR have been reported. In its Phase I effort entitled "Influence of Fractal Signals on the Eff ...

  4. Direct Casting of Er-Alloys for High-performance Cryocooler Regenerators

    SBC: International Mezzo Technologies, Inc.            Topic: MDA02031

    The goal of this program is to develop manufacturing technologies/methods that will allow for the fabrication of advanced regenerators made from erbium-based, intermetallic compounds for application in space-based cryocoolers. These regenerators, when used as a replacement for Pb-powder regenerators, will result in an increase in efficiency of cryocoolers by a factor of 3-4. When used as a repla ...

  5. Tactically Ready Asset Condition Recorder (TRACR)

    SBC: INTUITIVE RESEARCH & TECHNOLOGY CORP.            Topic: MDA03049

    The objective of the Tactically Ready Asset Condition Recorder or TRACR Phase II effort will be to continue the transfer of the Remote Readiness Asset Prognostic and Diagnostic System (RRAPDS) technology onto the Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile system. Phase I illustrated the feasibility of the TRACR concept for THAAD missile platform. This successful effort, in addition to the ...

  6. Capillary Discharge X-Ray Laser Driver

    SBC: Multilayer Optics And X-ray            Topic: N/A

    A compact x-ray laser driver with a high repetition rate is the subject of this phase I project. Most existing x-ray laser drivers are huge (1000s of square feet of floor space), expensive ($10,000,000+), have a low repetition rate (1/hr), are complex and require several PhDs to keep them working. Thus applications of present x-ray lasers are limited. In contrast, the proposed laser will occupy on ...

  8. Prototype Micro Laser Plasma Thruster

    SBC: Photonic Associates, LLC            Topic: BMDO02006

    There exists a critical need for revolutionary, new aerospace propulsion-related technologies. The micro Laser Plasma Thruster (uLPT) which Photonic Associates originated is such a technology. Our uLPT uses a cluster of diode lasers focused to a 25mm spot on the back of a transparent tape coated with a 50mm-thick carbon-containing absorbing layer. As the tape moves across the laser focus, a high- ...

  10. Low Cost, Non-Eroding Boost Nozzle Throats

    SBC: Plasma Processes, LLC            Topic: MDA03055

    Low cost, boost phase nozzles are needed for missile defense systems. Boost phase intercept missiles require high thrust motors that operate at very high pressures and temperatures. The nozzles must survive high thermal strains with minimal erosion to maintain performance. Current R&D focuses on non-eroding and DACS materials. However, low cost fabrication technologies and innovative nozzle design ...
