Subject: [EE] anyone know this device ?

Hi,

I got a device (looks a bit optical, due to a lens on it). It is a 3 pin
device, looks much similar to a SL100 (TO39 package) except that there is n=
o
indicator tab as in the case of the TO39 and that no pin is common to it's
metal body. It has a small lens on top of the metal cover. It has
inscriptions on it Toshiba (in Cursive writing) and OS14 and an arrow
pointing to one of the pins.

Does anyone have an idea what device it is ? Possibly a datasheet  ?

Thanks,
Manu
