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. Defect Mitigation Processes for III-V-based Infrared Detectors

    SBC: NBN TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: AF151132

    ABSTRACT:nBn detectors progressed significantly to the point that dual and triple band devices become possible, especially the ability to add Hot-MWIR to multi-color FPA. The main challenge in improving performance of nBn devices is the minority carrier lifetime which influence the reduction of dark currents, increase operation temperature, pixel operability and improve triple color nBn. Improving ...

  2. Robust Light-Weight Doppler Weather Radar

    SBC: HELIOS REMOTE SENSING SYSTEMS, INC.            Topic: AF151139

    ABSTRACT:Helios Remote Sensing Systems, Inc. proposes to research applicable technologies related to Doppler weather radar, processing data from the radar sensor, and delivering the data over the DoD IT infrastructure. The Doppler weather radar will be designed for use by the Air Force Weather Agency and will detect 1 in/hr precipitation from 5-180 nmi, winds up to 50 kt from 5-50 nmi, have a 2-4 ...

  3. Metasurface Enhanced Hyperspectral LWIR Filter

    SBC: PHOEBUS OPTOELECTRONICS LLC            Topic: AF151141

    ABSTRACT:We propose to design, develop, and demonstrate a metasurface-enhanced hyperspectral filter suitable for imaging spectrometry applications. The filter is part of a two-stage solution that integrates a patterned micro-antenna metasurface along with a DBR resonant cavity filter capable of creating an extremely narrow-band spectral response. By combining the two spectral filters into one, the ...

  4. Robust and Reliable Exploitation for Ground Moving Target Detection, Geolocation and Tracking Using Synthetic Aperture Radar

    SBC: TestCo            Topic: AF151146

    ABSTRACT:The objective of this effort is to establish SAR-GMTI analytical principles that incorporate various sensor and moving target parameters to establish a better understanding of capabilities and limitations of SAR moving target detection, geolocation, and tracking algorithms. We are mainly concerned with two major SAR-GMTI modalities: i) along-track monopulse (or Displaced Phase Center Arra ...

  5. Deep Architecture for Robust OPIR Tracking

    SBC: KITWARE INC            Topic: AF151156

    ABSTRACT:Automated detection and tracking of moving objects in OPIR data is a difficult problem due to low GSD, low contrast, sensor artifacts, and other challenges, and many standard approaches will not produce sufficient result quality. A robust tracking solution, however, is highly desirable to aid analysts in the automated exploitation of OPIR data. Our proposed approach leverages deep learnin ...

  6. Miniaturized parametric inlet bleed module with integrated discretized flow control

    SBC: Innoveering, LLC            Topic: AF151188

    ABSTRACT:The interaction of high Mach flows with the aircraft and engine structures generates complex fluid dynamic phenomena that include shock waves, shear layers, vortices, and separated flows, all of which can be further influenced by the thermochemical behavior of the high-temperature air. These fluid phenomena affect high-speed inlet operability and performance, but are not well understood, ...

  7. Environmental Sensors for High Speed Airframes

    SBC: Innoveering, LLC            Topic: AF151190

    ABSTRACT:In response to the Air Force topic AF151-190, Environmental Sensors for High Speed Airframes, the Innoveering team has devised an innovative and compact sensor/energy harvesting system that will meet DoD requirements, our MEMS Environmental Sensor and Harvesting (MESH) system. Our MESH system will: (i) be able harvest power from the environment being sensed in order to provide power to a ...

  8. Chalcogenide Glass Mid-IR Optic Development

    SBC: Rochester Precision Optics, LLC            Topic: AF15AT06

    ABSTRACT: The objective of this proposal is to develop a fast axis collimating lens for quantum cascade lasers (QCL) which emit in the midwave-infrared (MWIR) range. These lenses must withstand the stress of both continuous wave (CW) and pulsed laser emission. These high laser powers may cause ablation of lens material reducing effectiveness of the optic and leading to failure. Thus, a high damage ...

  9. Active Control of Scramjet Isolator Shocks (ACSIS)

    SBC: Innoveering, LLC            Topic: AF15AT19

    ABSTRACT: Active control of the shock system in a scramjet engine isolator opens possibilities for enhanced engine performance and reduced engine weight by eliminating excess isolator design margin. A successful system will allow for maximum performance from a given engine configuration and will deliver range and efficiency that exceeds those possible using passive unstart control. Our approach is ...

  10. A Multiscale Simulation Framework to Model Energetic Materials Subjected to Shock Loading

    SBC: SIMMETRIX, INC.            Topic: AF15AT28

    ABSTRACT: The overall objective of this project is to develop scalable simulation components that effectively model the meso-scale physics of heterogeneous energetic materials subject to dynamic shock loading including matrix debonding, void collapse, and damage due to crystal to crystal interactions, and bridges the meso-scale to the macro-scale for system scale simulations of the transition to d ...
