We investigated the effect of Ti/Al and ITO/Ag n-type contacts on the emission uniformity and light output of different chip-size vertical-geometry light-emitting diodes (VLEDs) for vehicle headlamp application. The forward voltage of the Ti/Al-based reference VLEDs decreased from 3.38 to 3.20 V at 1500 mA with increasing chip size from (1280 × 1000 µm2) to (1700 × 1700 µm2), whereas that of the ITO/Ag-based samples changed from 3.37 to 3.15 V. Regardless of chip size, the ITO/Ag-based samples revealed higher light output power than the reference samples. For example, the ITO/Ag-based samples (chip size of 1700 × 1700 µm2) exhibited 3.4% higher light output power at 1500 mA than the reference samples. The ITO/Ag samples underwent less degradation in the Wall-plug efficiency (WPE) than the reference sample. For instance, the ITO/Ag-based samples (1700 × 1700 µm2) gave 4.8% higher WPE at 1500 mA than the reference samples. The ITO/Ag-based samples illustrated more uniform emission than the Ti/Al-based sample. Both the reference and ITO/Ag-based samples underwent no degradation when operated at 1500 mA for 1000 h.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that caffeine supplementation (6 mg·kg-1 body mass) for 4-days, followed by acute intake, would impact five male triathletes output power after performed submaximal intensity exercise. Methods: This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study, placebo (4-day) - placebo (acute) PP, placebo (4-days) -caffeine (acute) PC, and caffeine (4-day) - caffeine (acute) CC. Participants abstained from dietary caffeine sources for 4 days and ingested capsules containing either placebo or caffeine (6 mg.kg-1 body mass day in one absorption). The acute trials the capsules containing placebo or caffeine (6 mg.kg-1 body mass day in one absorption) were ingested 60min before completing exercise in a treadmill for 40min (80% VO2max) and to perform the Wingate test. Results: Blood lactate was determined before, 60min after ingestion, and immediately after the exercise on the treadmill, the Wingate test, and after the recovery (10-min). CC and PC trials did not change the cardiopulmonary variables (P>0.05) and the anaerobic power variables (peak/mean power output and fatigue index) (P>0.05). The PC trial compared with PP promoted improvements in the curve power output in 2 sec by 31.19% (large effect-size d = 1.08; P<0.05) and 3 sec by 20% (large effect-size d = 1.19; P<0.05). A 10min recovery was not sufficient to reduce blood lactate concentration in the PC trial compared with PP (PC, 13.73±2.66 vs. PP, 10.26±1.60 mmol.L-1; P<0.05, respectively) (P<0.05). Conclusion: In conclusion, these results indicate that caffeine supplementation (6 mg·kg-1 body mass) for 4 days, followed by acute ingestion, did not impact the triathletes output power after performed submaximal intensity exercise. Nutritional interventions may help researchers and athletes to adapt strategies for manipulating caffeine use.Key-words: caffeine metabolism, Wingate test, blood lactate, performance.
