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. Pulse Generator for All-Optical Neurons

    SBC: Santa Barbara Photonics            Topic: N/A

    An optical pulse generator based on photorefractive effect and optical bistability is proposed for applications in all-0ptical pulse coupled neural networks. The novel device employs the dynamic memory function of photorefractive crystal and the regenerative pulsation property of optical bistable devices (OBDs). It consists of a photorefractive crystal, and OBD and an optical feedback loop. It ...

  2. INTELLIGENT DRIVERS USING OPTICAL SENSING

    SBC: Science Research Laboratory, Inc            Topic: ST061009

    Science Research Laboratory (SRL) and the Penn State Electro-Optics Center (PSU) propose to develop intelligent laser diode driver technology, incorporating optical diagnostics, that extends the operating lifetime of laser diode arrays by an order of magnitude. Random perturbations of temperature or current density during operation of a laser diode array can lead to thermal runaway and the formati ...

  3. High-Speed Diagnostic of Temperature and Intensity Variation on Diode-Laser Facets

    SBC: Science Research Laboratory, Inc            Topic: ST081011

    In this STTR project, Science Research Laboratory (SRL) and Boston University Photonics Center (BU Photonics) will develop a revolutionary optical technology for detecting localized increases in temperature on time scales ranging from nanoseconds to microseconds. By appropriately responding to instabilities in laser diodes (LDs), SRL has demonstrated a 10X increase in their lifetime. Localized di ...

  6. High Speed Room Temperature IR Camera Based on Plasmon Physics

    SBC: Tanner Research, Inc.            Topic: ST051005

    Several critical DoD missions require reliable, rapid, and non-cryogenically cooled long wave IR cameras. This camera, in turn, can be developed only with a new photodiode architecture wherein detector dark current is reduced by at least 3 orders of magnitude. In this proposal, Tanner Research and Stanford University are proposing a plasmon lens & resonant antenna device to efficiently focus bro ...

  9. Multi-Phase Center SAR Processing for Foliage Canopy Suppression

    SBC: Technology Service Corporation            Topic: N/A

    The capability of airborne SARs to perform foliage penetration is severely limited by the strength of the foliage canopy return. The capability exists for enhancing the detection of selected targets hidden beneath the foliage canopy through the use ofmulti-phase center (aperture) data. The objective of this Phase II effort is to demonstrate three innovative algorithms to mitigate the effect of t ...

  10. Dynamic Multisensor Exploitation (DYME)

    SBC: Technology Service Corporation            Topic: ST081008

    The goal of the TSC/GTRI program is to enhance expeditionary (or other small force) ISR capabilities by providing: 1) improved performance for an aggregate of existing or near-term airborne sensors, mobile ground sensors and UGS, 2) more efficient use of data links, and 3) target discovery algorithms that are designed for the available exploitation equipment. The multiple sensor exploitation arch ...
