Volume holographic gratings (VHGs) can be exploited to narrow the spectral Output of high-power laser-diode arrays (LDAs) by nearly an Order of magnitude, permitting more efficient generation of laser-polarized noble gases for various applications. A similar to 3-fold improvement in Xe-129 nuclear spin polarization, P-xe, (compared to a conventional LIDA) was achieved with the VHG-LDA's center wavelength tuned to a wing of the Rb D-1 line. Additionally, an anomalous dependence of P-xe on the xenon density within the OP cell is reported-including high P-xe Values (>10%) at high xenon partial pressures (similar to 1000 torr).
