putting a decanned diode in a non static plastic bag is a bad idea. It could be damaged just by the static in the bag. Has anyone stored a decanned one in nitrogen? Argon or helium would be better as nitrogen is still chemically active. If decanned and resealed in say argon I can’t see why it would not survive but that seal better not let oxygen in. Thinking press fit the diode but screw in a flat window all while in argon. That should work if oxygen and contamination is to blame. I actually think it’s trace organics and not oxygen.
