This is one of the diodes I extacted and accidentely broke the window on it.  So I tore open the can to get the shards out, but it still went zombified on me.

Anyway, I took this vid to see what it looked like close up while powered... but, the driver I was using, an experimental boost driver, wasn't working right, so it was just flashing when turned on.  But, it still looks cool as you can see the little chip on there light up as it's powered...

I'll have to hook up a working driver to this to get a better view of when powered, if it doesn't blind the camera  ;D

You have a ridiculously nice camera to take video that close and with that resolution. Nice! Cool to see the inside of this diode.

Haha, nah, it's not. It's my girlfriend's Olympus Stylus 600 with super macro mode turned on and a 30x magnification loupe duct taped to the front of the lens all mounted on a tripod ;D But, it works!

Well I think that counts as ridiculously nice anyway haha. Good job rigging that up.

Very nice video. I always thought the whole chip lit up. Looks like just the surface does.

woot, 100th post! :D

Re: Up close and personal with an opened zombie 80

So I had 10 min. at lunch earlier today that i decided to hook it back up, this time with a working driver, putting out ~100mA. Since the camera is so sensitive, it is a blinding flash when the laser diode comes on (even though it looked pretty dim to me :p). But, still is kinda cool:

Another video...

This time I used a dremel cut-off tool to carefully remove the can... not as easy as it looks! But, now you can clearly see the chip on there. It's really cool that you can see the whole chip glowing :D

That is one of the coolest things I've ever seen (and I've been around)

Peace,

Re: Up close and personal with an opened zombie 80

Here's some pics I took while making the video above, basically just higher res stills.  I just posted links because they would be annoyingly big in a post:

I wish my Nikon D50 wasn't broken as it has a better image sensor that could probably give a better picture with less bleeding of colors when the diode was powered, but these are still pretty good.

Those are some tasty pics you got there :) I just took a couple of an open canned 803t, but not as close.
