Anybody seen a spice model for a laser diode?

Hi there - I was thinking about trying to design a laser driver over
the weekend. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a spice model for a
laser diode, putting a bit of a squabash on that plan.
Anybody know where I can find one? Ideally I'd find one for a very
