5th century BC
Greek - Democritus of Abdera
All matter is made up of undividable particles called atoms
There is a void, which is empty space between atoms
Atoms are completely solid
Atoms are homogeneous, with no internal structure
Atoms vary in
1) Size
2) Shape
3) Weight

and to create and use structures, devices and systems that have novel properties and
functions because of their small and/or intermediate size.
Within these larger scale assemblies, the control and construction of their structures
and components remains at the nanometer scale.

Phase I is the startup phase. Awards of up to $100,000 for approximately 6 months support
exploration of the technical merit or feasibility of an idea or technology.
Phase II awards of up to $750,000, for as many as 2 years, expand Phase I results. During this
time, the R&D work is performed and the developer evaluates commercialization potential. Only
Phase I award winners are considered for Phase II.
Phase III is the period during which Phase II innovation moves from the laboratory into the
marketplace. No SBIR funds support this phase. The small business must find funding in the
private sector or other non-SBIR federal agency funding.

Phase I is the startup phase. Awards of up to $100,000 for approximately one year fund the exploration
of the scientific, technical, and commercial feasibility of an idea or technology.
Phase II awards of up to $500,000, for as long as two years, expand Phase I results. During this period,
the R&D work is performed and the developer begins to consider commercial potential. Only Phase I
award winners are considered for Phase II.
Phase III is the period during which Phase II innovation moves from the laboratory into the
marketplace. No STTR funds support this phase. The small business must find funding in the private
sector or other non-STTR federal agency funding.
