Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Email
MARLBOROUGH, Mass., Sept. 5, 2012 — Block Engineering, a manufacturer of quantum cascade laser-based and Fourier transform infrared spectrometers, has added the Griot Group as a sales representative.

The Griot Group has sales and administration offices in Irvine and Santa Clara, Calif; and in West Linn, Ore. It will represent Block Engineering in the Pacific Northwest, the Rocky Mountain region, and in Texas, Arizona and New Mexico. The Griot Group was founded by its president, Ron Hegge, in 1963 and has been recognized as a high-technology manufacturers' representative throughout the western US.

"Our presence in the academic and industrial markets is growing fast, and we are experiencing strong demand for our innovative infrared laser spectrometers and sources. The addition of the Griot Group is another strategic step in that direction," said Block Engineering CEO Petros Kotidis.

GLOSSARY
quantum cascade laser
A Quantum Cascade Laser (QCL) is a type of semiconductor laser that emits light in the mid- to far-infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. Quantum cascade lasers offer many benefits: They are tunable across the mid-infrared spectrum from 5.5 to 11.0 µm (900 cm-1 to 1800 cm-1); provide a rapid response time; and provide spectral brightness that is significantly brighter than even a synchrotron source. Quantum cascade lasers comprise alternating layers of semiconductor...
spectrometer
A kind of spectrograph in which some form of detector, other than a photographic film, is used to measure the distribution of radiation in a particular wavelength region.
