  I have a Laser Diode Laboratories, Inc. (now Laser Diode, Inc.) LD-60
  single heterojunction GaAs laser diode for sale.  This was purchased
  new and tested but never built into anything.  It's rated at 2+ Watts
  at a 0.1% duty cycle with a threshold current of 3 Amps.  The package
  is coaxial with an 8-32 screw stud for the negative terminal.  Wavelength
  is 904 nm at 25 deg. C.  That is well into the infrared so it should be
  good for some communications projects or maybe a laser pointer for Cmdr.
  Gordy LaForge.  I also have a 4 page spec. sheet and a reprint of the
  Scientific American article explaining simple driver and detector circuits.
