Here is the Lower Current Curve

A few years ago I went to the trouble of measuring the forward voltage of those diodes at lower currents than the spec sheet. It turns out that the dynamic impedance is still very low at lower currents, much less than most LEDs, for example, especially once you get above 15 mA or so. I use them with great success to bias the 6E5P in my 833C amps to ~28mA.

Here's the curve:
