Err no. But I have repaired an Avalanche photodiode that had lost its 
bondout wire (the other connection was made by having the substrate of 
the device on a metal header). The fact there was only one wire made it a 
lote eaiser. I literally soldered a piece of very fine, well-tinned wire 
to the pin on the header, got it to the right point on the die and just 
touched it with a hot soldering iron. Amazingly the device worked 
afterwards...
