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. Probabilistic Representation Of Operational Functions (PROOF)

    SBC: SCITEC INC            Topic: MDA14011

    To evaluate the BMDS from an engineering and statistical perspective, high-run-count simulations (HRCS) must be performed to more completely sample the scenario space. If HRCS can provide statistically significant results that are validated against higher fidelity simulations, HWIL and live fire test, they can be a very powerful tool in engineering studies, performance estimation and trade studie ...

  2. Robust Phase Modulators and Polarization Controllers for High Power Fiber Lasers

    SBC: Fontus Applied Technologies Inc            Topic: MDA14017

    Both polarization controllers and phase modulators are widely used in telecommunications and other applications. Presently, most polarization controllers and phase modulators cannot handle high optical power up to 10 W/channel. In this SBIR program, researchers of Fontus Applied Technologies propose an innovative polarization controller and a phase modulator using our advanced electro-optic tech ...

  3. Disruptive Improvements in Single-Photon Geiger-mode Avalanche Photodiode (GmAPD) Focal Plane Arrays (FPAs) and Cameras

    SBC: Princeton Lightwave, Inc.            Topic: MDA13024

    For this Phase II SBIR, Princeton Lightwave Inc. (PLI) is proposing to demonstrate disruptive single photon counting performance characteristics of Geiger-mode avalanche photodiode (GmAPD) cameras by making dramatic improvements to existing commercial short wave infrared GmAPD focal plane arrays. These cameras provide high-performance three-dimensional imaging capability for intelligence, surveil ...

  5. SPEER With Optical Research Data (SWORD)

    SBC: SCITEC INC            Topic: MDA07044

    SciTec has developed a system for post engagement evaluation and reporting (SPEER) that combines a multi-phenomenology, multi-source fusion engine with a human-machine interface (HMI) to correlate messages, system tracks and multi-source data, further exploits this data and displays information to provide situational awareness to include post engagement assessments. SPEER incorporates the remote ...

  8. Innovative Signature Exploitation for Long Range Object Discrimination

    SBC: SCITEC INC            Topic: MDA11010

    The Missile Defense Agency has adopted a Phased Adaptive Approach (PAA) to build up the BMDS system by incorporating existing and newly developed radars, EO/IR sensors, and interceptors to counter new threats, including sensors that are not owned by the MDA. Optimally utilizing these next generation of high fidelity Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) and possibly Airborne Infrared (ABIR) systems ...

  9. Development of line-narrowed diode pumps sources for DPAL systems

    SBC: Princeton Optronics            Topic: MDA11007

    Megawatt class laser systems using Diode Pumped Alkali Lasers (DPAL) could be possible because of their extremely low quantum defect which minimizes thermal loading and, like other gas lasers, the gain medium can be flowed to reduce thermal management requirements. One key to producing efficient systems is matching the absorption linewidth of the gain media to the emission bandwidth of the diodes. ...

  10. Scalable Single- and Multi-"Boule"Bulk GaN Substrate HVPE Production Tool

    SBC: STRUCTURED MATERIALS INDUSTRIES, INC.            Topic: DTRA122001

    GaN-based devices are currently grown on foreign substrates such as SiC and Al2O3, due to the lack of high quality GaN substrates. It is well known that the use of foreign substrates limits device performance due to a high dislocation density in the GaN film. Structured Materials Industries, Inc. (SMI) has developed a hybrid HVPE approach to grow high quality GaN device films. In this SBIR proj ...
