How to determine the positive and negative terminals of a laser diode
Touch the red probe (positive) to the suspected anode and the black probe (negative) to the cathode. If reversed, the reading will show "OL" (open loop), indicating reverse bias. As a bipolar component, a diode has an anode and a cathode at its two terminals, just like the positive and negative terminals in a circuit power source. How to Determine If a Diode is Forward or Reverse Biased? Can You Test Polarity with a Multimeter? What is Diode Polarity? Diode polarity refers to the direction in which a diode allows electrical current to flow. If it produces light, you were right, if it produces smoke, you were wrong :) Im 50% sure the left is negative.

How to connect a laser diode
You can learn to connect and program a laser diode with Arduino in this tutorial. Laser modules emit highly focused beams of light, making them ideal for a wide range of applications. This makes the laser beam very powerful and useful for many things, such as cutting or engraving materials, reading data, or even playing. The purpose of this laser diode tutorial is to provide the information necessary to create a long lifetime, stable laser diode system.
