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. Application of Novel Micromachined Millimeter Wave Systems to Space Based Radiometers and Radar Systems

    SBC: MICROFAB (WASVA MILLIMETER WAVE)            Topic: N/A

    Novel techniques have been developed for the application of micromachining techniques to the fabrication of millimeter and submillimeter wave components for space based receivers and radar systems. These techniques may permit significant reductions in costs of fabrication. Also, design cycles and system development may be accelerated. These techniques are compatible with the fabrication of linea ...

  2. Nitinol Based Emergency Parachute Automatic Actuation Device (AAD)

    SBC: Mide Technology Corporation            Topic: N/A

    The use of Nitinol wire as the activating mechanism for an emergency parachute Automatic Actuation Device (AAD) is envisioned to address the shortfalls of the systems currently employed. The use of a ballistic charge to automatically open a parachute increases the operating costs of such systems. These ballistic charges require maintenance every 2 to 3 years. They also require 100% replace ...

  3. New Materials and Processes for the Fabrication of Low Loss, High Tg Step Index and Graded Index Polymeric Optical Fibers

    SBC: Molecular Technologies, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Polymer Optical Fibers (POFs) are attractive for short-haul applications such as local area networks (LAN), fiber to the home (FTTH), and datalinks in ships, aircrafts and automobiles, due to their low cost, flexibility and ease of handling. The large diameter of POFs helps in achieving fiber coupling with ease and high efficiency. Commercially available POFs suffer from optical loss, and lo ...

  4. Development of Velocity Sensor Utilizing Laser Diodes and Avalanche Photodiodes

    SBC: NAL Research Corporation            Topic: N/A

    The system consists of two laser diodes of either the same or different wavelengths in the visible range. Both laser diodes are driven by a single current oscillator at a pre-determined base frequency. This base frequency is divided into two electrical pulse trains at exactly half the original base frequency by a two-stage shift register. One of these electrical pulse trains is applied to the firs ...

  5. Development of a Dynamic Gas Condensation Technique for Commercial Production of Nanometer Metal Powders

    SBC: New Mexico Nano-energetics            Topic: N/A

    Scientific innovations are commercially worthless until they are matched by corresponding manufacturing innovations. This dilemma characterizes the current status of nanometer metal powder technology. On one hand, years of scientific research have unambiguously demonstrated the utility of nanoscale metal materials for a myriad of high technology applications; on the other hand, current manu ...

  6. Scanning LDV System for Modeling Vibration and Acoustics

    SBC: Nomura Enterprise, Inc.            Topic: N/A

    Nomura Enterprise Inc. (NEI) proposes to extend a novel research technology, Laser-Based Spatial Dynamics Modeling (LSDM) for the solution of 3-D velocity fields over submerged structures using a scanning laser Doppler vibrometer (SLDV). NEI will be assisted by the Structural Imaging and Modal Analysis Laboratory of Virginia Tech. LSDM technology exploits high spatial density noncontact SLDV ...

  7. Micro-Machined Integrated Silica/Si Optical Waveguide Mechanical Sensors

    SBC: NZ APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES CORP.            Topic: N/A

    NZ Applied Technologies (NZAT) proposes to develop a mechanical sensor and sensor array which potentially have one order of magnitude improved sensitivity over the current state-of-the-art sensors. The technology is based on fabricating flexible/movable integrated optical waveguide structures on Si substrates using micro-machining process. These sensors can be used in harsh environment, such ...

  8. Novel Magnetic Sensor Using Magnetostrictive-Piezoelectric Thin Film Composite

    SBC: NZ APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES CORP.            Topic: N/A

    This proposal addresses the feasibility of fabricating advanced magnetic field sensors based on the properties of a magnetostrictive-piezoelectric thin film composite. By utilizing the giant magnetostriction of Terfenol-D and the very high piezoelectric coupling coefficients of PZT films, it is theoretically possible to achieve very high magnetic field sensitivities. By direct detection of a ...

  9. Self-Aligned Sol-Gel Optic Microchip Couplres for Ribbon Interconnect Systems

    SBC: NZ APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES CORP.            Topic: N/A

    This SBIR Phase I project intends to develop a novel fabrication and packaging methodology leading to the production of a family of low cost, low loss, and reliable microchip star and tree optical couplers using silicon substrates. These monolithic silicon devices would have self-aligned input and output fibers coupled to sol-gel waveguides and would be compatible with present production tech ...

  10. Novel Approach to High Power and High Speed Modulator

    SBC: NZ APPLIED TECHNOLOGIES CORP.            Topic: N/A

    The light intensity modulator is a key component for optical information processing and communication systems. The currently available electro-optical light modulators have two major drawbacks of (1) low power handling capability due to material's optical damage and (2) poor modulation efficiency at high frequencies resulting from velocity mismatching. The need for high speed and high power ...
