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. Satellite Structures with Engineered or Variable Electomagnetic Properties

    SBC: SPECTRUM MAGNETICS LLC            Topic: AF073102

    A novel methodology is proposed for the integration of nanomaterials into structural composite materials, to engineer multi-spectrum (microwave, IR, and optical) electromagnetic properties.   The process is general and a wide range of EM properties can be achieved, such as absorption, reflection, switchable properties, etc.  It is also possible to engineer multiple properties in the same struct ...

  2. Microcalorimeter Alpha Spectrometer for Analysis of Nuclear Material

    SBC: STAR CRYOELECTRONICS, LLC            Topic: N/A

    A key factor of international efforts to identify and suppress the supply of and demand for nuclear materials, and thereby to deter potential traffickers, is the ability to accurately identify contradicted material and ultimately to trace it back to its origin. Alpha particle spectroscopy is widely used in nuclear forensics to assay trace quantities of sensitive nuclear materials, but the limited ...

  3. Reinforced Boosted Penetrator Formulations

    SBC: TPL, INC            Topic: AF083091

    A variety of types of warheads have been envisioned for boosted penetrator warheads for the JDAM upgrade program to defeat a variety of targets.  Insensitive compositions are indicated in this type of system since the warhead will be boosted to speeds of 2000 2500 feet per second prior to impact with hardened structures or rock.  A persistent problem experienced in  PBXs in these weapons has be ...

  4. Compact, High Power Capacitors Based on Moldable Nanocomposite Dielectrics

    SBC: TPL, INC            Topic: AF083007

    Future HPM systems will require compact power to facilitate integration on mobile platforms. Capacitors, used to construct these sources, will need to deliver high current and high voltage under repetition. In response this need, TPL has established unique capabilities in the area of dielectrics. Revolutionary materials, processes and designs have been identified for power sources with significant ...

  5. Energy Scavenging Micro Air Weapon

    SBC: TPL, INC            Topic: AF083096

    This project demonstrates an efficient power scavenging design for a Perching Micro Air Weapon, enabling the weapon to perch on high voltage transmission lines, such as along the electric transmission grid prior to final voltage step-down.  The innovation of the perching air weapon design allows the system to recharge from a single, high-voltage transmission line.  When perching on a high voltag ...

  6. Dynamic Light Scattering Instrumentation Using Field Programmable Gate Array-based Digital Signal Processing

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: N/A

    An existing low-cost FPGA-based processing platform will be demonstrated with fiber-coupling to single-photon detectors, to perform photon-arrival time stamping with

  7. High Efficiency, Large-area, 1550 nm InGaAs Photodiodes

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: N/A

    A stable, well characterized InGaAs materials growth and photodetector fabrication process will be used to fabricate matched photodiodes optimized for balanced homodyne detection. The 1-mm-diameter p-i-n photodetectors will be manufactured back-illuminated with a 5-micron absorber, allowing residual light to reflect off the front-side metal to make a double pass through the active layer. Ultra-hig ...

  8. Efficient Low-Dark-Count Detector for Photon Counting

    SBC: VOXTEL, INC.            Topic: N/A

    Voxtel has demonstrated efficient high-speed photon counting with thresholded linear-mode avalanche photodiode (APD) receivers using multi-gain-stage InGaAs/InAIAs APDs. In contrast to Geiger APDs, thresholded photon-counting linear APD receivers are thought not to suffer afterpulsing, and can support maximum count rates (MCR) up to 2 or 3 orders of magnitude faster than Geiger APDs. However, the ...

  9. Advanced Third Generation Midwave Sensor Control Architecture

    SBC: SIGHTLINE APPLICATIONS, LLC            Topic: AF083262

    Night vision sensors have become ubiquitous in military, security, and commercial systems. Motivated by the growing body of evidence that suggests  that existing midwave sensors are not configured to produce optimal image contrast over a wide range of operating temperatures and dynamic ranges, a research and development project is proposed. This project will result in the careful characterization ...

  10. Electron-Beam Additive Manufacturing Process Control for Titanium Alloys

    SBC: TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT CO., INC.            Topic: AF091C002

    Machining of titanium parts from wrought stock costs as much as $1000 to $1500 per pound of finished component and has material lead times up to one year.   Electron beam deposition, or e-BAM, seeks to dramatically reduce these costs and lead times.   However, this is not possible without IPQA in-process quality assurance that monitors and controls key process variables during deposition. Our ...
