Calcium Ions Are Involved in the Unusual Red Shift of the Light-harvesting 1Q y Transition of the Core Complex in Thermophilic Purple Sulfur Bacterium Thermochromatium tepidum *□SReceived for publication,January 10,2008,and in revised form,March 6,2008Published,JBC Papers in Press,March 10,2008,DOI 10.1074/jbc.M800256200Yukihiro Kimura ‡1,Yu Hirano ‡,Long-Jiang Yu ‡,Hiroaki Suzuki

purple sulfur bacterium,Thermochromatium tepidum ,can grow at temperatures up to 58°C and exhibits an unusual Q y absorption at 915nm for the core light-harvesting complex (LH1),an ϳ35-nm red shift from those of its meso-philic counterparts.We demonstrate in this study,using a highly purified LH1-reaction center complex,that the LH1Q y transition is strongly dependent on metal cations and Ca 2؉is involved in the unusual red shift.Removal of the Ca 2؉resulted in formation of a species with the LH1Q y absorption at 880nm,and addition of the Ca 2؉to the 880-nm species recovered the native 915-nm form.Interchange between the two forms is fully reversible.Based on spectroscopic and isothermal titration cal-orimetry analyses,the Ca 2؉binding to the LH1complex was estimated to occur in a stoichiometric ratio of Ca 2؉/␣␤-sub-unit ؍1:1and the binding constant was in 105M ؊1order of magnitude,which is comparable with those for EF-hand Ca 2؉-binding proteins.Despite the high affinity,conformational changes in the LH1complex upon Ca 2؉binding were small and occurred slowly,with a typical time constant of ϳ6min.Replacement of the Ca 2؉with other metal cations caused blue shifts of the Q y bands depending on the property of the cations,indicating that the binding site is highly selective.Based on the amino acid sequences of the LH1complex,possible Ca 2؉-bind-ing sites are proposed that consist of several acidic amino acid residues near the membrane interfaces of the C-terminal region of the ␣-polypeptide and the N-terminal region of the ␤-polypeptide.Thermochromatium (Tch.)tepidum is a thermophilic purple sulfur photosynthetic bacterium that can grow at temperatures up to 58°C,the highest known for purple bacteria (1,2).Thecrystal structure of the reaction center (RC)3for this bacterium has been determined (3),revealing structural features similar to those of the RCs from other purple bacteria (4,5).The antenna system in Tch.tepidum contains two types of light-harvesting complex,LH1and LH2.The LH1complex has been shown to be tightly associated with RC to form the core complex (6,7),LH1-RC,and the LH2complex is supposed to be located in the periphery of the core complex (8,9).Although a number of high resolution structures are available for the LH2and LH3(a spec-troscopic variant of LH2)complexes (10–12),information on the molecular structure of the LH1complex has been lacking.This information is essential for studying its biolog-ical functions in terms of excitation energy transfer and reduced ubiquinone transport.The interaction mode be-tween LH1and RC complexes is also of particular interest because the RC has a structure of 2-fold symmetry (3,4,13),whereas low resolution structures of LH1show a pseudo 14-or 16-fold symmetry depending on the species (14–20).The sym-metry issue needs to be taken into account when addressing the possible contacting sites between the LH1and RC and the fac-tors determining the specific orientation of RC inside the LH1ring.The crystallographic structure of the LH1-RC complex from Rhodopseudomonas (Rps.)palustris at 4.8Åresolution shows a slightly elliptical LH1ring composed of 15pairs of the ␣␤-polypeptides with a gap that is associated with an unknown protein W and is proposed to be adjacent to the ubiquinone-binding site in RC (17).However,to gain insight into a more detailed picture of the configuration of LH1-RC,structural information at higher resolutions is required.Recently,the LH1-RC complex from Tch.tepidum has been crystallized (21).We have shown that the purified LH1-RC complex of Tch.tepidum is extremely stable (21,22).Besides the thermal stabil-ity,another striking feature is the unusual red shift of the Q y transition of the LH1complex.Although the core complex con-tains only a -type bacteriochlorophyll (BChl),the same as those found in most other purple bacteria,spectroscopically the LH1complex of Tch .tepidum exhibits a Q y absorption at 915nm,ϳ35nm red-shifted from those of its mesophilic counterparts.The reason for this red shift has been unclear (2).Two other LH1complexes from purple bacteria strain 970and Roseospi-*This work was supported by Grants-in-aid for Scientific Research on PriorityAreas “Structures of Biological Macromolecular Assemblies”from the Min-istry of

at963nm(23)and909nm(24,25),respectively.The large red shifts were explained in terms of enhanced exciton interaction among the BChl a molecules and specific interactions between BChl a and LH1polypeptides.Recent studies on the LH com-plexes show that small differences in the primary structure of the apoproteins can alter the spectroscopic properties(12, 26–29).The hydrogen-bonding pattern and local environment were shown to have an effect on the conformation of the cou-pled BChl a molecules,and small changes in the conformationcould result in a significant shift of the Qy transition.In a preliminary study,we found that the LH1Qy absorptionof Tch.tepidum core complex appeared to be affected by vari-ous cations used in the experiment(6).However,the LH1-RC samples used in the previous work were partially damaged,and the LH2along with other two unknown proteins were not com-pletely removed.We demonstrate in the present work using highly purified samples that the calcium ions are stronglyinvolved in the unusual red shift of the LH1Qy transition.Aspecies with absorption maximum at880nm can be obtained from the LH1915-nm complex by removing the Ca2ϩ,and the native LH1915-nm form(B915)can be recovered from the880-nm species(B880)by addition of Ca2ϩ.Interchange between the two forms is reversible.Effects of the Ca2ϩon the properties of the LH1-RC complex from Tch.tepidum were analyzed by absorption,circular dichroism(CD)spectros-copies,isothermal titration calorimetry(ITC),and sucrose den-sity gradient ultracentrifugation analyses.The Ca2ϩbinding constants were estimated both spectroscopically and thermo-dynamically.The rates of conformational changes upon the Ca2ϩbinding were calculated from a pseudo first-order kinetics analysis.By comparison of the amino acid sequences of LH1complexes,possible Ca2ϩ-binding sites have been proposed.The Ca2ϩ-dependent spectral behavior of the LH1 complex has not been reported for other purple photosyn-thetic bacteria and is of great interest and significance in understanding the structural and functional roles of Ca2ϩin this thermophilic organism.MATERIALS AND METHODSSample Preparation—Cells from Tch.tepidum were cultured anaerobically at48°C for7days as described previously(7). Isolation and purification followed the same procedure described before(21)except that n-octyl-␤-D-glucopyranoside (OG)was used as detergent in solubilization and chromatogra-phy.The harvested cells were disrupted by sonication in20m M Tris-HCl buffer at pH8.5.Chromatophores were first treated with0.35%(w/v)lauryldimethylamine N-oxide at25°C for60 min followed by centrifugation at150,000ϫg for90min.The pellet was further treated with1.0%(w/v)OG and centrifuged at150,000ϫg for90min to extract the LH1-RC components. The supernatant was loaded onto a DEAE anion-exchange col-umn(Toyopearl650S;Tosoh Corp.)equilibrated at4°C with 20m M Tris-HCl buffer,pH7.5,containing0.8%(w/v)OG.The LH1-RC fraction was eluted by a linear gradient of NaCl from50to125m M,and peak fractions with a ratio of A915/A280over2.10were collected.The native LH1-RC complex was passed through a sizeexclusion column(Sephadex G25M PD10;GE Healthcare)to remove excess salts,followed by incubation at0°C for3h in darkness in the presence of1.25m M EDTA.The sample solu-tion was extensively washed with a buffer containing20m M Tris-HCl,pH7.5,and0.8%(w/v)OG to remove excess of EDTA.The final concentration of EDTA in the solution was estimated to be lower than1n M.The resulting core complex showed an LH1Qyabsorption maximumϳ880nm.To exam-ine the effects of metal cations,the B880sample was incubated at0°C overnight after adding various metal cations.Sucrose density gradient centrifugation analysis was conducted by ultracentrifugation at150,000ϫg and4°C for12h under a 10–40%(w/v)continuous gradient of sucrose concentration in a buffer containing20m M Tris-HCl,pH7.5,and0.7%(w/v)OG in the presence or absence of1m M EDTA.Spectroscopic Measurements—Absorption spectra were recorded on a Beckman DU-640spectrophotometer at room temperature.Kinetic analysis for the recovering process from B880to B915upon the addition of Ca2ϩwas performed by monitoring the increase of the absorbance at937nm.CD spec-tra were recorded on a Jasco J-720w spectropolarimeter in the ranges of200to300and400to1000nm.The measurements were conducted under the conditions of20nm/min of scan speed,1.0nm bandwidth,and2s of response time.For the CD measurement between200and300nm,data were averaged over10scans in order to improve the signal-to-noise ratio, while for the measurements between400and1000nm the spectra were obtained from one scan.The molar extinction coefficient of BChl a dimer in a native␣␤-subunit was estimated to be270 m MϪ1cmϪ1by extracting BChl a molecules from purified LH1-RC complexes with acetone/methanol(7/2,v/v)and using ⑀770ϭ76m MϪ1cmϪ1for the monomeric BChl a(30). ITC—ITC measurements were carried out on a MicroCal VP-ITC microcalorimeter at25°C.The LH1-RC samples were dissolved in20m M Tris-HCl,pH7.5,and0.7%OG at250␮M. Following thermal equilibration at25°C,a total of14injectionsof50m M CaCl2dissolved in the same buffer were made in1-␮l aliquots into the cell from the syringe using a300-rpm stirring speed.An injection delay of10min was utilized to allow for the baseline to return after each injection.The titration data were deconvoluted based on a binding model containing either one or two sets of noninteracting binding sites by a nonlinear least squares minimization method(31)performed using the Micro-Cal Origin ITC software.RESULTSFirst we confirmed the effect of various metal cations on the absorption spectrum using highly purified LH1-RC complex from the Tch.tepidum(supplemental Fig.S1).The native corecomplex(B915)exhibited LH1Qyabsorption at914nm asreported previously(21).The Qyband was retained at the orig-inal position only in the presence of Ca2ϩand blue-shifted by the addition of other cations.The results indicate that the native LH1form of the Tch.tepidum is sensitive to the coexist-ing metal cations.To investigate whether the B915species is bound to metal ions,metal chelators were employed.Fig.1shows an absorp-Ca2؉Binding to the LH1complex of Tch.tepidumby guest, on January 5, Downloaded fromtion spectrum obtained with the addition of EDTA to the B915species.The LH1Q y band was largely blue-shifted to 876nm with a spectral shape similar to those observed for the LH1complexes from other purple bacteria.This clearly indicated that metal ions are involved in the formation of the B915and removal of the cation by EDTA results in a conformational change of the BChl a molecules in the LH1complex,leading to a large blue shift of the LH1Q y band.Similar results were observed using different metal chelators,nitrilotriacetic acid and ethylene glycol-bis(␤-aminoethyl ether)-N ,N ,N Ј,N Ј-tet-raacetic acid (tetrasodium salt),suggesting that the blue shift was not caused by the specific interaction between EDTA and the core complex.We further investigated the effects of various cations on the EDTA-treated LH1-RC complex (B880).Typical results on the divalent cations are shown in Fig.1,and the results for monovalent cations are provided in supplemental Fig.S2.Red shifts with respect to the LH1Q y band (876nm)of the B880species were observed with additions of all cations.Among the divalent cations tested,only Ca 2ϩgave an absorp-tion spectrum closely resembling that of native B915species with the LH1Q y absorption maximum at 913.5nm.Addition of other cations resulted in small red shifts of the LH1Q y band to 885–889nm for the divalent cations and 879–884nm for the monovalent cations,respectively.The results strongly suggest that the B915species is induced from the B880species by the binding of Ca 2ϩto the LH1complex.The binding property of Ca 2ϩwas examined over a wide range of Ca 2ϩconcentrations.Fig.2shows the absorption spec-tra of the EDTA-treated core complex in the presence of Ca 2ϩat various concentrations.By increasing the Ca 2ϩconcentra-tion,the B915species was formed accompanied by a decrease of the B880species.There was an isosbestic point at 895nm,indi-cating that the B915recovered from the B880upon the addition of Ca 2ϩ.The Ca 2ϩ-dependent LH1Q y shifts were plotted in the inset as a function of the Ca 2ϩconcentration,revealing a sig-moid curve that saturated ϳ50␮M Ca 2ϩ.Kinetics of the Ca 2ϩbinding process at room temperature (25°C)was analyzed using the pseudo first-order model.Formation of the B915spe-cies was monitored at 937nm where we can observe the maxi-mum change in the intensity.Fig.3shows the time profile of the absorption change (⌬A )after addition of 5m M Ca 2ϩto the B880species of 7␮M LH1subunit.The absorbance at 937nm increased with time and reached maximum in ϳ30min.Because the concentration of Ca 2ϩwas much higher than that of the B880species,the binding process can be represented by a pseudo first-order kinetics model.The time-dependent absorp-tion change ⌬A (t )can be expressed by the first-order rate equa-tion as shown in Equation 1,⌬A ͑t ͒ϭ⌬A ϫ͓1Ϫexp ͑Ϫk ϫt ͔͒(Eq.1)where ⌬A is the final change of absorbance at 937nm,k is the rate constant for the conformational change of the LH1com-plex upon the Ca 2ϩbinding,and t is the time in minutes after the addition of Ca 2ϩ.By a least-square fitting of the data using Equation 1,the rise rate constant k of B915was determined to be 0.20min Ϫ1.This value did not change very much over aR e l a t i v e a b s o r b a n c eWavelength / nmFIGURE 1.Absorption spectra of the Ca 2؉-depleted LH1-RC complex (B880)from

first-order kinetic analysis is valid and the conformational changes from B880to B915upon the Ca2ϩbinding occur slowly under the experimental conditions. The binding affinity of Ca2ϩto B880was evaluated by a non-linear least-square fitting of the spectroscopic data.Fig.4shows the plots of⌬A at several wavelengths between930and960nm as a function of the Ca2ϩconcentration.These wavelengths were selected so as to minimize contribution from the RC that has absorption over750–950nm.Assuming that one LH1sub-unit of the B880species binds to one Ca2ϩto form one subunit of the B915species,the absorption changes⌬A observed can be expressed by Equation2(see supplemental data for details),⌬Aϭlϫ͑⑀915Ϫ⑀880͒ϫ͓͑1ϩC0KϩKx͒Ϫ͕͑1ϩC0KϩKx͒2Ϫ4C0K2x͖0.5͔/2K(Eq.2)where l is the light path length,⑀915and⑀880are molar extinc-tion coefficients of the LH1subunit in the B915and B880forms,respectively,C0is the initial concentration of subunit ofthe B880species,K is the Ca2ϩbinding constant,and x is the concentration of Ca2ϩ.By using the nonlinear least-square fit-ting of⌬A,the Ca2ϩbinding constant K was estimated to be6.5 (Ϯ0.3)ϫ105MϪ1.Fig.4shows a good agreement between the calculated result and the spectroscopic data.The value of the binding constant is comparable with those reported for typical EF-hand Ca2ϩ-binding proteins(32).The binding properties of Ca2ϩto the LH1complex were further examined by thermodynamic analysis.Fig.5A shows the ITC profile obtained with titration of Ca2ϩto the B880 rge exothermic change was observed for each injection,providing independent evidence for the strong Ca2ϩbinding.A remarkable feature in the thermogram is that each exothermic signal clearly revealed a two-phase change:a rapid return immediately after the injection and a slow recovery,as shown typically in the inset of Fig.5A.The two exothermic components can be interpreted in terms of a fast Ca2ϩbinding to the B880and a slow process of confor-mational rearrangement within the core complex,respec-tively.Based on a two-component analysis,the time con-stants were determined to be20and369s for the fast and slow processes,respectively.The latter is quite consistent with the rate constant observed from spectroscopic meas-urement(Fig.3).Fig.5B shows a plot of the integrated heat/ mol of injectant(Ca2ϩ)as a function of the molar ratio of Ca2ϩ/(B880subunit).The plot exhibited a sigmoid-like curve with a stoichiometrically equivalent pointϳ1.0,sug-gesting that the Ca2ϩbinding phenomenon can be described by a simple one-site model.From the model analysis,several thermodynamic parameters were obtained:the number of binding site/subunit nϭ0.97,the binding constant Kϭ9.6ϫ104MϪ1,and enthalpy change⌬HϭϪ4.0kcal molϪ1. Using these values,the changes of Gibbs free energy⌬G and entropy⌬S were evaluated to beϪ6.8kcal molϪ1and9.36cal molϪ1KϪ1,respectively,from Equation3,⌬Gϭ⌬HϪT⌬SϭϪnRT ln K(Eq.3) where T is the absolute

LH1complex of Tch.tepidumby guest, on January 5, Downloaded fromStructural differences in conformation and assembly of the core complexes between the B915and B880species were inves-tigated by CD spectroscopy and sucrose density gradient cen-trifugation.Fig.6shows the CD spectra.As reported previously,the CD spectrum of B915was characterized by small and non-conservative signals in the Q y region (21),a typical feature for the core complexes from purple bacteria (33,34).Upon removal of Ca 2ϩ,the CD signals for the Q y and Q x bands were blue-shifted in accordance with the changes of absorption spec-tra,whereas other signals from the RC and carotenoids remained unchanged.These results support that Ca 2ϩ-dependent spectral changes originate from the change in con-figuration of the BChl a molecules in the LH1complex.We also examined the effect of Ca 2ϩon the secondary structure of the apoproteins of the LH1-RC complex by measuring the CD spectra in the far UV region (Fig.6,inset ).Spectra for both the B915and B880revealed almost the same shape and can be characterized by highly ␣-helical structures.This suggests that there was no change in the secondary structures of the polypep-tides.Sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation exhibited a single band for both B915and B880at identical positions (sup-plemental Fig.S3),indicating that the B880is not a decomposed form of B915and the whole assembly of the core complex remains unchanged.All results described above were obtained using the puri-fied LH1-RC complex.In Fig.7,we show that similar phe-nomena can be observed for Tch.tepidum chromatophores.The chromatophore membrane contains a large amount of LH2complex,as revealed by the intensive absorption max-ima at 800and 850nm,and a small amount of LH1complex with the Q y transition at 915nm.In the presence of CaCl 2,there was no change in the absorption spectrum of the chro-matophore.However,upon the addition of EDTA or MgCl 2,the LH1915-nm band was shifted toward 880nm and merged with the LH2absorptions.The result implied that the Ca 2ϩ-binding site of the LH1complex exists in a hydro-philic part or at the membrane interface where metal cations and EDTA are readily accessible.DISCUSSIONThe present study demonstrated that the LH1Q y transition at 915nm of the core complex from Tch.tepidum is induced by the binding of Ca 2ϩto the LH1complex.Removal of the Ca 2ϩresulted in a blue shift of the LH1Q y transition to 876nm,the wavelength similar to those of other mesophilic purple bacteria.The B915native form can be recovered from the B880by the addition of Ca 2ϩ.The result indicates that Ca 2ϩis an indispen-sable cofactor for retaining the native structure of the Tch.tepi-dum LH1complex.The Ca 2ϩbinding property of the Tch.tepi-dum LH1complex is considered to be closely related to the living environment of this organism.Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park,from where the bacterium was col-lected (1),is known to contain rich mineral calcium carbonate deposited over millions of years to form thick layers of sedimen-tary limestone.This bacterium cannot grow in a Ca 2ϩ-depleted culture (data not shown).Through the spectroscopic and ITC analyses,binding of the Ca 2ϩto the LH1␣␤-subunit was found to occur in a one-to-one ratio with a binding constant of ϳ105order of magnitude.The high binding affinity is comparable with that for the well known EF-hand Ca 2ϩ-binding proteins (32,35).Generally,Ca 2ϩis classified as a hard acid and prefers to interact with a hard base.In the proteins with an EF-hand Ca 2ϩ-binding site,the ligands are mainly composed of oxygen atoms from acidic amino acid residues (Asp and Glu)as well as those from main chain car-bonyl groups and water molecules (35).Inspection of the pri-mary sequences of the Tch.tepidum LH1polypeptides revealed that three Asp in the ␣-polypeptide are located in the C-termi-nal region and are close to the BChl a -coordinating His residue (Fig.8)(6,7).Three similar residues (two Glu and one Asp)are found in the C terminus of the LH1␣-polypeptide from the mesophilic purple bacterium Allochromatium (Ach.)vinosum .However,a deletion exists in this region of the Tch.tepidum LH1␣-polypeptide that is thought to be essential for the for-mation of a Ca 2ϩ-binding site and the specific interaction between the polypeptide and pigment molecule.Positions of the deletion and the three Asp residues are estimated to be onC D / m d e gWavelength / nmFIGURE 6.CD spectra for the B915(broken line )and B880(solid

interface or in the hydrophilic part of the ␣-polypeptide.Similarly,several neighboring acidic residues are found in the N-terminal domain of the ␤-polypeptide,which might also serve as a potential binding site.Possibilities for other residues around the BChl a that are capable of hydro-gen bonding (27,29)and/or Ca 2ϩbinding need to be further investigated.Despite the high affinity between the Tch.tepidum LH1com-plex and Ca 2ϩ,the structural changes induced by the Ca 2ϩbinding occurred slowly as revealed from the spectroscopic and the ITC measurements.Therefore,the conformational change from B880to B915is the rate-limiting step under the experi-mental conditions.Previous study showed that the Tch.tepi-dum LH1-RC complex was purified in a monomeric form,with the LH1ring composed of 16␣␤-subunits (21).In the presentwork,the Ca 2ϩbinding to the LH1complex was estimated tooccur in a stoichiometric ratio of Ca 2ϩ/␣␤-subunit ϭ1:1.Thismeans that the B915form may not be completed from the B880form until all the 16binding sites are occupied by the Ca 2ϩions,because the Q y transition is a consequence of cooperative inter-action between the exciton states formed by the 32BChl a mol-ecules.In the case where there are less Ca 2ϩions than LH1-␣␤pairs,the original state of the exciton interaction in the LH1ring will be altered and become heterogeneous.As a result,a broadening in the Q y transition could be expected.Such broad-ening was actually observed at low Ca 2ϩconcentrations up to 3.2␮M (Fig.2and supplemental Fig.S4).At higher Ca 2ϩcon-centrations than 3.2␮M ,the full width at half maximum decreased rapidly with increasing Ca 2ϩconcentration.Taking into account the total molecular weight of ϳ330,000for the core complex,the slow structural change may be interpreted in terms of the large size of the membrane proteins associated with a considerable amount of the surrounded detergent mol-ecules.Other factors include the relatively long time required for the fine-tuning of the 16Ca 2ϩ-bound ␣␤-subunits within the LH1complex to form a stabilized conformation that can also contribute to the thermal stability of the Tch.tepidum .Generally,metal binding to proteins is known to be driven entropically because the dehydration enthalpy of divalent cat-ions is highly endothermic.However,overall enthalpy could become exothermic if the metal binding is thermodynamicallycoupled to the conformational change that eventually could result in a thermal stabilization of the protein (36).In calmodu-lins from bovine brain (37–39)and wheat germ (40),the Ca 2ϩbinding reactions were reported to be driven solely by a largefavorable entropy change despite unfavorable enthalpy change.In contrast,for the troponin C (41–43)and parvalbumins (32,44,45)the Ca 2ϩbinding reactions were mostly favorable in both entropy andenthalpy except for several specificsites where endothermic-andentropy-driven reactions occur in a similar way to the calmodulins (42–44).For the Tch.tepidum LH1-RC complex,the Ca 2ϩbinding is drivenboth entropically and enthalpically,similar to the cases of troponin C and parvalbumins.Therefore,the large exothermic changes of the Tch.tepidum core complex strongly support that the Ca 2ϩbinding to the LH1complex caused a conformational change that largely stabilized the structure of the LH1-RC complex.The Ca 2ϩbinding in calmodulins was reported to induce a conformational transition of random coils to ␣-helical struc-tures based on the results of CD measurement (46–48).For the Tch.tepidum core complex,the far UV-CD spectra did not show any change in the Ca 2ϩdepletion.This means that con-formational change of the LH1complex may occur mainly in the tertiary structure or the change in the secondary structure,if there is any,may be too small to be detected.Similar results were reported for troponin C from rabbit skeletal muscle (41).In EF-hand proteins (35),the Ca 2ϩ-binding sites are located in the loop of a helix-loop-helix motif and large conformationalchanges are accompanied with the binding of Ca 2ϩ.In contrast,the putative Ca 2ϩ-binding sites in the LH1complex are located at the terminal regions of the polypeptides.Furthermore,thenumber of acidic residues involved in the binding site and theirarrangement seem to be different from those of EF-hand Ca 2ϩ-binding proteins (32).As a result,the slight structural change in LH1can only be detected by its Q y transition that is extremely sensitive to the conformational change of the BChl a molecules.The changes in LH1Q y transition for different alkaline earthcations appeared to be partly related to the ionic radius,as the cations with larger (Sr 2ϩ,Ba 2ϩ)and smaller (Mg 2ϩ)ionic radiithan that of Ca2ϩshowed the cation-dependent Q y bands between 885and 889nm.However,substitution of Cd 2ϩthathas an ionic radius almost the same as that of Ca 2ϩalso induceda red shift to 887nm.The results indicate that the Ca 2ϩ-binding site in the LH1complex is highly selective and can distinguish the cations not only by the ionic radius but also by other prop-erties such as binding mode and coordination number (49)as well as the hard-soft nature.In this regard,the complex mech-anism of molecular recognition of the Tch.tepidum LH1is expected to be explored by detailed structural information,and the effort toward determining a high-resolution structure of the core complex is in progress (21).Acknowledgments—We thank Dr.J.Nakamura and Dr.Y.Sakaguchi of Nihon SiberHegner K.K.for the ITC measurements and M.Naka-mura and

无穷维Hamilton算子谱理论研究综述

无穷维Hamilton算子谱理论研究综述

第50卷第1期2021年1月内蒙古师范大学学报(自然科学版)Journal of Inner Mongolia Normal University(Natural Science Edition)Vol.50No.1Jan.2021无穷维Hamilton算子谱理论研究综述阿拉坦仓】,吴德玉2(1.内蒙古师范大学数学科学学院,内蒙古呼和浩特010022;2.内蒙古大学数学科学学院,内蒙古呼和浩特010021)摘要:对无穷维Hamilton算子谱理论研究成果进行了梳理,包括无穷维Hamilton算子辛自伴性、无穷维Hamilton算子特征函数系的完备性,以及无穷维Hamilton算子数值域等方面的研究现状和展望。

提出一些关于无穷维Hamilton算子谱理论方面有待解决的问题。

关键词:无穷维Hamilton算子;自伴性;数值域;完备性中图分类号:0175.3文献标志码:A文章编号:1001—8735(2021)01—0001—06doi:10.3969/j.issn.1001—8735.2021.01.0010引言Hilbert空间中线性算子理论,尤其自伴算子谱理论是20世纪数学科学领域取得的最重要成果之一。

有界自伴算子谱理论的奠基人D.Hilbert,在1904年至1910年完成的关于积分方程的六篇论文中阐述了有界自伴算子谱理论的思想。

为研究量子力学问题,1927年至1929年J.von Neumann将有界自伴算子谱理论推广到了无界自伴算子领域。

20世纪30年代,F.Riesz和M.S.Stone等人进一步完善了无界自伴算子谱理论框架。

目前,自伴算子谱理论已经形成了比较完善的框架体系。

众所周知的求解偏微分方程的分离变量法,又称Fourier级数法,就是以自伴算子谱理论为基础的。

需要注意的是,当系统对应的算子是自伴算子时,该系统能量是守恒的,亦称封闭系统。

然而,实际问题中也存在诸多能量不守恒的开放系统,其状态算子为非自伴算子。

论文中参考文献和图、表的标准格式

论文中参考文献和图、表的标准格式

论文中参考文献和图、表的标准格式1.参考文献的作用着录参考文献是科技论文写作的传统贯例和必要内容。

首先,它体现了科学的严肃性、继承性和对他人劳动的尊重。

其次,表明作者使用参考文献的起点和深度。

一份完整的参考文献,也是作者向读者提供的一份有价值的信息检索资料。

第三,为了保持篇章结构的简洁和紧凑,也不宜在正文中过多地赘述参考文献的内容,而善于利用参考文献,则可以适当节省篇幅,提高论文质量。

2.文献的着录规则参考文献的着录要求采用顺序编码标控制,即按引用文献出现的先后顺序,在文献的著者或成果叙述文字的右上角用方括号标注阿拉伯数字编排序号,在参考文献表中按此序号依次著录。

具体讲,有以下几种情况。

参考文献类型:专著[M],论文集[C],报纸文章[N],期刊文章[J],学位论文[D],报告[R],标准[S],专利[P],论文集中的析出文献[A]电子文献类型:数据库[DB],计算机[CP],电子公告[EB]电子文献的载体类型:互联网[OL],光盘[CD],磁带[MT],磁盘[DK](1)文内的标注视则①引文写出原著者时,序号应置于著者姓名的右上角。

如在谈到当前我国优质烤烟生产中存在的问题时,朱尊权[2]指出:……②不写出著者时,序号应置于引文之后右上角。

如“营养不良.发育不全,成熟不够.烘烤不当”[3],这“四不”问题是符合我国烤烟生产实际情况的。

③当将参考文献序号作为文句的组成部分时,不用角码序号,而以正文形式用方括号序号列出。

如烟草增香剂的制各方法见文献[2]。

④当引用多篇文献时,只须将各篇文献的序号在一个角码内全部列出,各序号间用逗号隔开;如通连续序号,应在标注起止序号间加“~”连接。

如早期的研究结果[2,5,7~9]表明,……(2)文后的着录规则①书籍的基本著录项目和着录规则[序号]著者.书名.版本,出版地:出版者,出版年.页次.示例[1]管雨霖,张凤英,马超群,等.烟草病害诊断虫害识别及防治[M].北京:农业出版社,1989.78-81.②期刊的基本著录项目和着录规则[序号]著者.题(篇)名.刊名,出版年,卷(期)号:页次.示例[1]朱尊权.论当前我国优质烤烟生产技术导向[J].烟草科技,1994,(1):2-3.[2]金龙林.关于在论文中标往参考文献顺序码的位置问题[J].编辑学报,1994,6(4):240-241.③专利文献的基本著录项目和着录规则[序号]专利申请者.专利题名.专利国别,专利文献种类,专利号.出版日期.示例[1]孙中培,刘清,段完晶.烟草薄片用烟杆纤维物质.中国专利,发明,CNA.1993-07-28.[2]牛聪阳,刘立全,荆海强.固体物料造粒机.中国专利,实用新型,ZL93 2 24039.9.1995-02-12.④报纸的基本著录项目和通用格式[序号]著者.题(篇)名.报纸名,出版年.月.日(版位).示例[1]刘彩望.保护烟农利益稳定烟叶生产:河南省提高优质烟奖励标准.东方烟草报,1995.1.25(1).A:专著、论文集、学位论文、报告[序号]主要责任者.文献题名[文献类型标识].出版地:出版者,出版年.起止页码(可选)[1]刘国钧,陈绍业.图书馆目录[M].北京:高等教育出版社,1957.15-18.B:期刊文章[序号]主要责任者.文献题名[J].刊名,年,卷(期):起止页码[1]何龄修.读南明史[J].中国史研究,1998,(3):167-173.[2]OU J P,SOONG T T,et al.Recent advance in research on applications of passi ve energy dissipation systems[J].Earthquack Eng,1997,38(3):358-361.C:论文集中的析出文献[序号]析出文献主要责任者.析出文献题名[A].原文献主要责任者(可选).原文献题名[C].出版地:出版者,出版年.起止页码[7]钟文发.非线性规划在可燃毒物配置中的应用[A].赵炜.运筹学的理论与应用——中国运筹学会第五届大会论文集[C].西安:西安电子科技大学出版社,1996.468.D:报纸文章[序号]主要责任者.文献题名[N].报纸名,出版日期(版次)[8]谢希德.创造学习的新思路[N].人民日报,1998-12-25(10).E:电子文献[文献类型/载体类型标识]:[J/OL]网上期刊、[EB/OL]网上电子公告、[M/CD]光盘图书、[DB/OL]网上数据库、[DB/MT]磁带数据库[序号]主要责任者.电子文献题名[电子文献及载体类型标识].电子文献的出版或获得地址,发表更新日期/引用日期[12]王明亮.关于中国学术期刊标准化数据库系统工程的进展[EB/OL].http://www.cajcd. /pub/wml.html,1998-08-16/1998-10-01.[8]万锦.中国大学学报文摘(1983-1993).英文版[DB/CD].北京:中国大百科全书出版社,1996.参考文献规范格式一、参考文献的类型参考文献(即引文出处)的类型以单字母方式标识,具体如下:M——专著C——论文集N——报纸文章J——期刊文章D——学位论文R——报告对于不属于上述的文献类型,采用字母“Z”标识。

Inference of Population Structure Using Multilocus Genotype Data

multilocus genotype data to infer populationstructure and assign individuals to populations.We assume a model in which there are K populations(where K may be unknown),each of which is characterized by

Structural Studies of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition in Bi4Ti3O12

Rather,it is probable that these modes will condense successively and the two end member phases will be linked by an intermediate ing powder neutron diffraction methods,Macquart and Lightfoot have in-dependently shown that the A21am to I4/mmm transi-tion in the n)2Aurivillius phases SrBi2Ta2O911and Sr0.85Bi2.1Ta2O912proceeds via an intermediate paraelec-tric Amam phase in each case.This Amam phase is also seen in PbBi2M2O9(M)Nb,Ta).19That is,upon cooling from the I4/mmm phase,the tilting of the octahedra occurs before the cation displacement.The same se-quence is reported to occur in the n)4Aurivillius oxide SrBi4Ti4O15.20The aim of the present work is to establish whether the B2eb to I4/mmm transition in Bi4Ti3O12is first order as proposed by Hirata and Yokakowa17or if it actually occurs continuously via an intermediate phase as seen in SrBi2Ta2O9.11To establish this we have investigated the temperature dependence of the structure of Bi4-Ti3O12from room temperature to800°C using high-resolution synchrotron radiation.Near the Curie tem-perature fine temperature intervals have been used to detect the intermediate phase which exists over a very limited temperature range.Experimental SectionThe crystalline sample of Bi4Ti3O12was prepared by the solid-state reaction of stoichiometric quantities of Bi2O3 (99.999%,Aldrich)and TiO2(99.9%,Aldrich).The heating sequence used was700°C/24h and850°C/48h,with intermediate regrinding.The sample was slowly cooled to room temperature in the furnace.The sample purity was established by powder X-ray dif-fraction measurements using Cu K R radiation on a Shimadzu D-6000Diffractometer.Room-and variable-temperature syn-chrotron X-ray powder diffraction patterns were collected on a high-resolution Debye Scherrer diffractometer at beamline 20B,the Australian National Beamline Facility,at the Photon Factory,Japan.21The sample was finely ground and loaded into a0.3-mm quartz capillary that was rotated during the measurements.All measurements were performed under vacuum to minimize air scatter.Data were recorded using two Fuji image plates.Each image plate was20×40cm and each covered40°in2θ.A thin strip(ca.0.5cm wide)was used to record each diffraction pattern so that up to30patterns could be recorded before reading the image plates.The data were collected at a wavelength of0.75Å(calibrated with a NIST Si 640c standard)over the2θrange of5-75°with step size of 0.01°.The patterns were collected in the temperature range of100-800°C in25°C steps or600-803°C in7°C steps, and with30-min counting time at each temperature.Struc-tures were refined by the Rietveld method using the program Rietica.22The positions of the cations were well described in these analyses,however the estimated standard deviations (esds)of the Ti-O bond distances(typically around0.02Å) preclude any detailed discussion of the temperature depen-dence of the bond distances.Results and DiscussionThe published room-temperature structure for Bi4-Ti3O12was used as a starting model in our Rietveldrefinements,and the structural refinement proceededwithout event.The temperature dependence of thelattice parameters and volumes are illustrated in Figure1.All the lattice parameters show a smooth increasedue to thermal expansion as the sample is heated toca.500°C.Above this temperature the cell continuesto expand along both the b-and c-directions,howeverthe a-parameter is essentially constant.This behavioris very similar to that displayed by a number of simplerABO3perovskites23-25and is apparently related to thegradual reduction in distortion resulting from a reduc-tion in the magnitude of the tilting of the BO6octahedraas the temperature is increased.Near675°C there is arapid decrease in the a-parameter although as is clearlyevident from Figure1this is not a discontinuousdecrease but rather a rapid progressive drop.At thesame temperature the c-axis expands rapidly,Figure1.The transition to the tetragonal phase is clearlyevident in the200/020and317/137reflections(near2θ≈15.8and26.7°,respectively,whereλ)0.75Å).As illustrated in Figure2the diffraction pattern recordedat670°C shows obvious splitting of the200/020and317/137reflections that is clearly indicative of orthor-hombic symmetry.This splitting remains clearly visibleto the eye until677°C and can be discerned by profileanalysis at684°C.At691°C no splitting or diagnosticasymmetry of these or other peaks is apparent and itis concluded that the structure is tetragonal.That is,the transition to the tetragonal structure occurs near690°C,which is around15°above the reported ferro-electric Curie temperature for Bi4Ti3O12.(Some care isrequired when comparing the transition temperaturesreported in various studies because of both samplevariation(induced by the different heating regimesused)and possible variations in the high-temperaturethermometry.)Above691°C the structure has been refined in thetetragonal space group I4/mmm and is as described byHervoches and Lightfoot.16That the paraelectric phaseis tetragonal in I4/mmm well above the ferroelectricCurie temperature was confirmed from the high-resolu-tion powder neutron diffraction data by Hervoches andLightfoot from both the cell metric and the absence ofany superlattice reflections indicative of

phase.Clearly the value for the c -parameter at 684°C does not fall into either series.A similar conclusion can be made for both the a -and b -parameters.These temperature-dependent changes in the lattice parameters are more reminiscent of the continuous-phase transitions observed in oxides such as Bi 2PbNb 2O 919than of the more subtle changes observed in the high-temperature second-order incommensurate-to-commensurate phase transition observed in Bi 2-MoO 6.26A feature of many first-order phase transitions is the coexistence of a two phase region.Attempts to fit the pattern at 684°C to a two-phase orthorhombic/tetragonal model with lattice parameters obtained by appropriate linear extrapolation were unsuccessful.It was concluded that a single phase was present at this temperature and this was neither the orthorhombic in B 2eb nor the tetragonal I 4/mmm .(26)Buttrey,D.J.;Vogt,T.;White,B.D.J.Solid State Chem.2000,155,206.(27)/∼stokesh/isotropy.html.Figure 1.Temperature

Bi 4Ti 3O 12Chem.Mater.,Vol.15,No.26,20035027In summary,we observe an orthorhombic structure at 684°C whose lattice parameter clearly distinguishes it from the low-temperature orthorhombic and high-temperature tetragonal phases.(In fact,even if we could not distinguish this as a separate phase,the observed continuity of transition,together with the group theo-retical arguments to follow,would indicate that such an intermediate orthorhombic phase is involved in the transition.)If we assume that all three phases have commensurate structures then it should be possible to identify the space group of the intermediate phase from a group theoretical analysis.To do this we used the program ISOTROPY.27This analysis confirmed that a direct B 2eb to I 4/mmm transition could not be continu-ous.The two modes responsible for the transition were identified as Γ5-describing the cation displacement and X 3+associated with the tilting of the TiO 6octahedra.28Whichever of these modes condenses first,an interme-diate orthorhombic structure based on a 2× 2×1superstructure of the parent I 4/mmm structure is involved,as illustrated in Figure 3,and the successive phase transitions through either of these intermediates are allowed to be continuous.If the initial distortion is cation displacement via the Γ5-mode then a ferroelec-tric orthorhombic structure that lacks any tilting of the TiO 6octahedra is expected.The resulting structure in Fmm 2can continuously transform to the observed room-temperature orthorhombic B 2eb phase through tilting of the TiO 6octahedra via the X 3+mode.(This descrip-tion refers still to the parent structure in I 4/mmm .)Alternatively,the initial distortion may be the introduc-tion of tilting of the TiO 6octahedra resulting in a Cmca phase followed by cation displacement.The available synchrotron diffraction data do not allow us to unequivoc-ally distinguish between these two possibilities;how-ever,by analogy with SrBi 2Ta 2O 9,we favor the latter possibility.11The confirmation of this will require a high-resolution neutron diffraction study.It is illuminating to compare our results with those of Hirata and Yokokawa.17First,Figure 2of their report suggests they recorded very little data in the ferroelec-tric phase with only four temperature points obvious.A somewhat greater number of temperatures were examined (nine)in the paraelectric phase,apparently at 20°C intervals.Crucially,no data appear to have been collected between 475and 675°C,the latter corresponding to the reported ferroelectric Curie tem-perature for Bi 4Ti 3O 12.There is then a relatively large jump in the temperatures used by Hirata and Yokokawa to above 695°C.In our present study we have used relatively coarse temperature increments (25°C)to monitor the general form of the phase transition,but then we have used much finer intervals (7°C)to probe the nature (first order or continuous)of the ferroelectric to paraelectric transition.We conclude that as a result of the relatively coarse temperature intervals used by Hirata and Yokokawa it was not possible for those authors to establish whether the ferroelectric to paraelec-tric transition in Bi 4Ti 3O 12was first order or continuous.The temperature dependence of the lattice parameters established using powder neutron diffraction data de-scribed by Lightfoot and Hervoches 16,29is very similar to that observed here for the data collected in 25°C intervals.On the basis of a similar density of data,Lightfoot and Hervoches 29concluded that the transition is first order.In comparison,our data collected in 7°C intervals using high-resolution synchrotron X-ray meth-ods strongly suggests the transition is continuous,albeit involving an intermediate phase.In conclusion we have identified the existence of an intermediate orthorhombic phase in the solid-state phase transition of the ferroelectric n )3Aurivillius phases Bi 4Ti 3O 12.Two possible orthorhombic phases were iden-tified using group theory,Fmm 2and Cmca ,depending on the sequence in which the two modes responsible for the lowering of symmetry condense.By analogy with the n )2oxide SrBi 2Ta 2O 9,the most likely sequence of transitions is B 2cb 670°C fCmca 695°CfI 4/mmm .Clearly confirming the existence of and establishing the precise structure of the proposed intermediate phase is of considerable interest,and efforts aimed at this are in progress.Acknowledgment.This work performed at the Australian National Beamline Facility was supported by the Australian Synchrotron Research Program,which is

This algorithm is implemented in P ARED,a system that supports the parallel adaptive solution of PDEs.We dis-cuss the design of such an algorithm for distributed mem-ory machines including the problem of propagating refine-ment across processor boundaries to obtain meshes that are conforming and non-degenerate.We also demonstrate that the meshes obtained by this algorithm are equivalent to the ones obtained using the serial longest-edge refine-ment method.Wefinally report on the performance of this refinement algorithm on a network of workstations.Keywords:mesh refinement,unstructured meshes,finite element methods,adaptation.1.IntroductionThefinite element method(FEM)is a powerful and successful technique for the numerical solution of partial differential equations.When applied to problems that ex-hibit highly localized or moving physical phenomena,such as occurs on the study of turbulence influidflows,it is de-sirable to compute their solutions adaptively.In such cases, adaptive computation has the potential to significantly im-prove the quality of the numerical simulations by focusing the available computational resources on regions of high relative error.Unfortunately,the complexity of algorithms and soft-ware for mesh adaptation in a parallel or distributed en-vironment is significantly greater than that it is for non-adaptive computations.Because a portion of the given mesh and its corresponding equations and unknowns is as-signed to each processor,the refinement(coarsening)of a mesh element might cause the refinement(coarsening)of adjacent elements some of which might be in neighboring processors.To maintain approximately the same number of elements and vertices on every processor a mesh must be dynamically repartitioned after it is refined and portions of the mesh migrated between processors to balance the work.In this paper we discuss a method for the paral-lel refinement of two-and three-dimensional unstructured meshes.Our refinement method is based on Rivara’s serial bisection algorithm[1,2,3]in which a triangle or tetrahe-dron is bisected by its longest edge.Alternative efforts to parallelize this algorithm for two-dimensional meshes by Jones and Plassman[4]use randomized heuristics to refine adjacent elements located in different processors.The parallel mesh refinement algorithm discussed in this paper has been implemented as part of P ARED[5,6,7], an object oriented system for the parallel adaptive solu-tion of partial differential equations that we have devel-oped.P ARED provides a variety of solvers,handles selec-tive mesh refinement and coarsening,mesh repartitioning for load balancing,and interprocessor mesh migration.2.Adaptive Mesh RefinementIn thefinite element method a given domain is di-vided into a set of non-overlapping elements such as tri-angles or quadrilaterals in2D and tetrahedrons or hexahe-drons in3D.The set of elements and its as-sociated vertices form a mesh.With theaddition of boundary conditions,a set of linear equations is then constructed and solved.In this paper we concentrate on the refinement of conforming unstructured meshes com-posed of triangles or tetrahedrons.On unstructured meshes, a vertex can have a varying number of elements adjacent to it.Unstructured meshes are well suited to modeling do-mains that have complex geometry.A mesh is said to be conforming if the triangles and tetrahedrons intersect only at their shared vertices,edges or faces.The FEM can also be applied to non-conforming meshes,but conformality is a property that greatly simplifies the method.It is also as-sumed to be a requirement in this paper.The rate of convergence and quality of the solutions provided by the FEM depends heavily on the number,size and shape of the mesh elements.The condition number(a)(b)(c)Figure1:The refinement of the mesh in using a nested refinement algorithm creates a forest of trees as shown in and.The dotted lines identify the leaf triangles.of the matrices used in the FEM and the approximation error are related to the minimum and maximum angle of all the elements in the mesh[8].In three dimensions,the solid angle of all tetrahedrons and their ratio of the radius of the circumsphere to the inscribed sphere(which implies a bounded minimum angle)are usually used as measures of the quality of the mesh[9,10].A mesh is non-degenerate if its interior angles are never too small or too large.For a given shape,the approximation error increases with ele-ment size(),which is usually measured by the length of the longest edge of an element.The goal of adaptive computation is to optimize the computational resources used in the simulation.This goal can be achieved by refining a mesh to increase its resolution on regions of high relative error in static problems or by re-fining and coarsening the mesh to follow physical anoma-lies in transient problems[11].The adaptation of the mesh can be performed by changing the order of the polynomi-als used in the approximation(-refinement),by modifying the structure of the mesh(-refinement),or a combination of both(-refinement).Although it is possible to replace an old mesh with a new one with smaller elements,most -refinement algorithms divide each element in a selected set of elements from the current mesh into two or more nested subelements.In P ARED,when an element is refined,it does not get destroyed.Instead,the refined element inserts itself into a tree,where the root of each tree is an element in the initial mesh and the leaves of the trees are the unrefined elements as illustrated in Figure1.Therefore,the refined mesh forms a forest of refinement trees.These trees are used in many of our algorithms.Error estimates are used to determine regions where adaptation is necessary.These estimates are obtained from previously computed solutions of the system of equations. After adaptation imbalances may result in the work as-signed to processors in a parallel or distributed environ-ment.Efficient use of resources may require that elements and vertices be reassigned to processors at runtime.There-fore,any such system for the parallel adaptive solution of PDEs must integrate subsystems for solving equations,adapting a mesh,finding a good assignment of work to processors,migrating portions of a mesh according to anew assignment,and handling interprocessor communica-tion efficiently.3.P ARED:An OverviewP ARED is a system of the kind described in the lastparagraph.It provides a number of standard iterativesolvers such as Conjugate Gradient and GMRES and pre-conditioned versions thereof.It also provides both-and -refinement of meshes,algorithms for adaptation,graph repartitioning using standard techniques[12]and our ownParallel Nested Repartitioning(PNR)[7,13],and work mi-gration.P ARED runs on distributed memory parallel comput-ers such as the IBM SP-2and networks of workstations.These machines consist of coarse-grained nodes connectedthrough a high to moderate latency network.Each nodecannot directly address a memory location in another node. In P ARED nodes exchange messages using MPI(Message Passing Interface)[14,15,16].Because each message has a high startup cost,efficient message passing algorithms must minimize the number of messages delivered.Thus, it is better to send a few large messages rather than many small ones.This is a very important constraint and has a significant impact on the design of message passing algo-rithms.P ARED can be run interactively(so that the user canvisualize the changes in the mesh that results from meshadaptation,partitioning and migration)or without directintervention from the user.The user controls the systemthrough a GUI in a distinguished node called the coordina-tor,.This node collects information from all the other processors(such as its elements and vertices).This tool uses OpenGL[17]to permit the user to view3D meshes from different angles.Through the coordinator,the user can also give instructions to all processors such as specify-ing when and how to adapt the mesh or which strategy to use when repartitioning the mesh.In our computation,we assume that an initial coarse mesh is given and that it is loaded into the coordinator.The initial mesh can then be partitioned using one of a num-ber of serial graph partitioning algorithms and distributed between the processors.P ARED then starts the simulation. Based on some adaptation criterion[18],P ARED adapts the mesh using the algorithms explained in Section5.Af-ter the adaptation phase,P ARED determines if a workload imbalance exists due to increases and decreases in the num-ber of mesh elements on individual processors.If so,it invokes a procedure to decide how to repartition mesh el-ements between processors;and then moves the elements and vertices.We have found that PNR gives partitions with a quality comparable to those provided by standard meth-ods such as Recursive Spectral Bisection[19]but which(b)(a)Figure2:Mesh representation in a distributed memory ma-chine using remote references.handles much larger problems than can be handled by stan-dard methods.3.1.Object-Oriented Mesh RepresentationsIn P ARED every element of the mesh is assigned to a unique processor.V ertices are shared between two or more processors if they lie on a boundary between parti-tions.Each of these processors has a copy of the shared vertices and vertices refer to each other using remote ref-erences,a concept used in object-oriented programming. This is illustrated in Figure2on which the remote refer-ences(marked with dashed arrows)are used to maintain the consistency of multiple copies of the same vertex in differ-ent processors.Remote references are functionally similar to standard C pointers but they address objects in a different address space.A processor can use remote references to invoke meth-ods on objects located in a different processor.In this case, the method invocations and arguments destined to remote processors are marshalled into messages that contain the memory addresses of the remote objects.In the destina-tion processors these addresses are converted to pointers to objects of the corresponding type through which the meth-ods are invoked.Because the different nodes are inher-ently trusted and MPI guarantees reliable communication, P ARED does not incur the overhead traditionally associated with distributed object systems.Another idea commonly found in object oriented pro-gramming and which is used in P ARED is that of smart pointers.An object can be destroyed when there are no more references to it.In P ARED vertices are shared be-tween several elements and each vertex counts the number of elements referring to it.When an element is created, the reference count of its vertices is incremented.Simi-larly,when the element is destroyed,the reference count of its vertices is decremented.When the reference count of a vertex reaches zero,the vertex is no longer attached to any element located in the processor and can be destroyed.If a vertex is shared,then some other processor might have a re-mote reference to it.In that case,before a copy of a shared vertex is destroyed,it informs the copies in other processors to delete their references to itself.This procedure insures that the shared vertex can then be safely destroyed without leaving dangerous dangling pointers referring to it in other processors.Smart pointers and remote references provide a simple replication mechanism that is tightly integrated with our mesh data structures.In adaptive computation,the struc-ture of the mesh evolves during the computation.During the adaptation phase,elements and vertices are created and destroyed.They may also be assigned to a different pro-cessor to rebalance the work.As explained above,remote references and smart pointers greatly simplify the task of creating dynamic meshes.4.Adaptation Using the Longest Edge Bisec-tion AlgorithmMany-refinement techniques[20,21,22]have been proposed to serially refine triangular and tetrahedral meshes.One widely used method is the longest-edge bisec-tion algorithm proposed by Rivara[1,2].This is a recursive procedure(see Figure3)that in two dimensions splits each triangle from a selected set of triangles by adding an edge between the midpoint of its longest side to the opposite vertex.In the case that makes a neighboring triangle,,non-conforming,then is refined using the same algorithm.This may cause the refinement to prop-agate throughout the mesh.Nevertheless,this procedure is guaranteed to terminate because the edges it bisects in-crease in length.Building on the work of Rosenberg and Stenger[23]on bisection of triangles,Rivara[1,2]shows that this refinement procedure provably produces two di-mensional meshes in which the smallest angle of the re-fined mesh is no less than half of the smallest angle of the original mesh.The longest-edge bisection algorithm can be general-ized to three dimensions[3]where a tetrahedron is bisected into two tetrahedrons by inserting a triangle between the midpoint of its longest edge and the two vertices not in-cluded in this edge.The refinement propagates to neigh-boring tetrahedrons in a similar way.This procedure is also guaranteed to terminate,but unlike the two dimensional case,there is no known bound on the size of the small-est angle.Nevertheless,experiments conducted by Rivara [3]suggest that this method does not produce degenerate meshes.In two dimensions there are several variations on the algorithm.For example a triangle can initially be bisected by the longest edge,but then its children are bisected by the non-conforming edge,even if it is that is not their longest edge[1].In three dimensions,the bisection is always per-formed by the longest edge so that matching faces in neigh-boring tetrahedrons are always bisected by the same com-mon edge.Bisect()let,and be vertices of the trianglelet be the longest side of and let be the midpoint ofbisect by the edge,generating two new triangles andwhile is a non-conforming vertex dofind the non-conforming triangle adjacent to the edgeBisect()end whileFigure3:Longest edge(Rivara)bisection algorithm for triangular meshes.Because in P ARED refined elements are not destroyed in the refinement tree,the mesh can be coarsened by replac-ing all the children of an element by their parent.If a parent element is selected for coarsening,it is important that all the elements that are adjacent to the longest edge of are also selected for coarsening.If neighbors are located in different processors then only a simple message exchange is necessary.This algorithm generates conforming meshes: a vertex is removed only if all the elements that contain that vertex are all coarsened.It does not propagate like the re-finement algorithm and it is much simpler to implement in parallel.For this reason,in the rest of the paper we will focus on the refinement of meshes.5.Parallel Longest-Edge RefinementThe longest-edge bisection algorithm and many other mesh refinement algorithms that propagate the refinement to guarantee conformality of the mesh are not local.The refinement of one particular triangle or tetrahedron can propagate through the mesh and potentially cause changes in regions far removed from.If neighboring elements are located in different processors,it is necessary to prop-agate this refinement across processor boundaries to main-tain the conformality of the mesh.In our parallel longest edge bisection algorithm each processor iterates between a serial phase,in which there is no communication,and a parallel phase,in which each processor sends and receives messages from other proces-sors.In the serial phase,processor selects a setof its elements for refinement and refines them using the serial longest edge bisection algorithms outlined earlier. The refinement often creates shared vertices in the bound-ary between adjacent processors.To minimize the number of messages exchanged between and,delays the propagation of refinement to until has refined all the elements in.The serial phase terminates when has no more elements to refine.A processor informs an adjacent processor that some of its elements need to be refined by sending a mes-sage from to containing the non-conforming edges and the vertices to be inserted at their midpoint.Each edge is identified by its endpoints and and its remote ref-erences(see Figure4).If and are sharedvertices,(a)(c)(b)Figure4:In the parallel longest edge bisection algo-rithm some elements(shaded)are initially selected for re-finement.If the refinement creates a new(black)ver-tex on a processor boundary,the refinement propagates to neighbors.Finally the references are updated accord-ingly.then has a remote reference to copies of and lo-cated in processor.These references are included in the message,so that can identify the non-conforming edge and insert the new vertex.A similar strategy can be used when the edge is refined several times during the re-finement phase,but in this case,the vertex is not located at the midpoint of.Different processors can be in different phases during the refinement.For example,at any given time a processor can be refining some of its elements(serial phase)while neighboring processors have refined all their elements and are waiting for propagation messages(parallel phase)from adjacent processors.waits until it has no elements to refine before receiving a message from.For every non-conforming edge included in a message to,creates its shared copy of the midpoint(unless it already exists) and inserts the new non-conforming elements adjacent to into a new set of elements to be refined.The copy of in must also have a remote reference to the copy of in.For this reason,when propagates the refine-ment to it also includes in the message a reference to its copies of shared vertices.These steps are illustrated in Figure4.then enters the serial phase again,where the elements in are refined.(c)(b)(a)Figure5:Both processors select(shaded)mesh el-ements for refinement.The refinement propagates to a neighboring processor resulting in more elements be-ing refined.5.1.The Challenge of Refining in ParallelThe description of the parallel refinement algorithm is not complete because refinement propagation across pro-cessor boundaries can create two synchronization prob-lems.Thefirst problem,adaptation collision,occurs when two(or more)processors decide to refine adjacent elements (one in each processor)during the serial phase,creating two(or more)vertex copies over a shared edge,one in each processor.It is important that all copies refer to the same logical vertex because in a numerical simulation each ver-tex must include the contribution of all the elements around it(see Figure5).The second problem that arises,termination detection, is the determination that a refinement phase is complete. The serial refinement algorithm terminates when the pro-cessor has no more elements to refine.In the parallel ver-sion termination is a global decision that cannot be deter-mined by an individual processor and requires a collabora-tive effort of all the processors involved in the refinement. Although a processor may have adapted all of its mesh elements in,it cannot determine whether this condition holds for all other processors.For example,at any given time,no processor might have any more elements to re-fine.Nevertheless,the refinement cannot terminate because there might be some propagation messages in transit.The algorithm for detecting the termination of parallel refinement is based on Dijkstra’s general distributed termi-nation algorithm[24,25].A global termination condition is reached when no element is selected for refinement.Hence if is the set of all elements in the mesh currently marked for refinement,then the algorithmfinishes when.The termination detection procedure uses message ac-knowledgments.For every propagation message that receives,it maintains the identity of its source()and to which processors it propagated refinements.Each prop-agation message is acknowledged.acknowledges to after it has refined all the non-conforming elements created by’s message and has also received acknowledgments from all the processors to which it propagated refinements.A processor can be in two states:an inactive state is one in which has no elements to refine(it cannot send new propagation messages to other processors)but can re-ceive messages.If receives a propagation message from a neighboring processor,it moves from an inactive state to an active state,selects the elements for refinement as spec-ified in the message and proceeds to refine them.Let be the set of elements in needing refinement.A processor becomes inactive when:has received an acknowledgment for every propa-gation message it has sent.has acknowledged every propagation message it has received..Using this definition,a processor might have no more elements to refine()but it might still be in an active state waiting for acknowledgments from adjacent processors.When a processor becomes inactive,sends an acknowledgment to the processors whose propagation message caused to move from an inactive state to an active state.We assume that the refinement is started by the coordi-nator processor,.At this stage,is in the active state while all the processors are in the inactive state.ini-tiates the refinement by sending the appropriate messages to other processors.This message also specifies the adapta-tion criterion to use to select the elements for refinement in.When a processor receives a message from,it changes to an active state,selects some elements for refine-ment either explicitly or by using the specified adaptation criterion,and then refines them using the serial bisection algorithm,keeping track of the vertices created over shared edges as described earlier.When itfinishes refining its ele-ments,sends a message to each processor on whose shared edges created a shared vertex.then listens for messages.Only when has refined all the elements specified by and is not waiting for any acknowledgment message from other processors does it sends an acknowledgment to .Global termination is detected when the coordinator becomes inactive.When receives an acknowledgment from every processor this implies that no processor is re-fining an element and that no processor is waiting for an acknowledgment.Hence it is safe to terminate the refine-ment.then broadcasts this fact to all the other proces-sors.6.Properties of Meshes Refined in ParallelOur parallel refinement algorithm is guaranteed to ter-minate.In every serial phase the longest edge bisectionLet be a set of elements to be refinedwhile there is an element dobisect by its longest edgeinsert any non-conforming element intoend whileFigure6:General longest-edge bisection(GLB)algorithm.algorithm is used.In this algorithm the refinement prop-agates towards progressively longer edges and will even-tually reach the longest edge in each processor.Between processors the refinement also propagates towards longer edges.Global termination is detected by using the global termination detection procedure described in the previous section.The resulting mesh is conforming.Every time a new vertex is created over a shared edge,the refinement propagates to adjacent processors.Because every element is always bisected by its longest edge,for triangular meshes the results by Rosenberg and Stenger on the size of the min-imum angle of two-dimensional meshes also hold.It is not immediately obvious if the resulting meshes obtained by the serial and parallel longest edge bisection al-gorithms are the same or if different partitions of the mesh generate the same refined mesh.As we mentioned earlier, messages can arrive from different sources in different or-ders and elements may be selected for refinement in differ-ent sequences.We now show that the meshes that result from refining a set of elements from a given mesh using the serial and parallel algorithms described in Sections4and5,re-spectively,are the same.In this proof we use the general longest-edge bisection(GLB)algorithm outlined in Figure 6where the order in which elements are refined is not spec-ified.In a parallel environment,this order depends on the partition of the mesh between processors.After showing that the resulting refined mesh is independent of the order in which the elements are refined using the serial GLB al-gorithm,we show that every possible distribution of ele-ments between processors and every order of parallel re-finement yields the same mesh as would be produced by the serial algorithm.Theorem6.1The mesh that results from the refinement of a selected set of elements of a given mesh using the GLB algorithm is independent of the order in which the elements are refined.Proof:An element is refined using the GLBalgorithm if it is in the initial set or refinementpropagates to it.An element is refinedif one of its neighbors creates a non-conformingvertex at the midpoint of one of its edges.Therefinement of by its longest edge divides theelement into two nested subelements andcalled the children of.These children are inturn refined by their longest edge if one of their edges is non-conforming.The refinement proce-dure creates a forest of trees of nested elements where the root of each tree is an element in theinitial mesh and the leaves are unrefined ele-ments.For every element,let be the refinement tree of nested elements rooted atwhen the refinement procedure terminates. Using the GLB procedure elements can be se-lected for refinement in different orders,creating possible different refinement histories.To show that this cannot happen we assume the converse, namely,that two refinement histories and generate different refined meshes,and establish a contradiction.Thus,assume that there is an ele-ment such that the refinement trees and,associated with the refinement histories and of respectively,are different.Be-cause the root of and is the same in both refinement histories,there is a place where both treesfirst differ.That is,starting at the root,there is an element that is common to both trees but for some reason,its children are different.Be-cause is always bisected by the longest edge, the children of are different only when is refined in one refinement history and it is not re-fined in the other.In other words,in only one of the histories does have children.Because is refined in only one refinement his-tory,then,the initial set of elements to refine.This implies that must have been refined because one of its edges became non-conforming during one of the refinement histo-ries.Let be the set of elements that are present in both refinement histories,but are re-fined in and not in.We define in a similar way.For each refinement history,every time an ele-ment is refined,it is assigned an increasing num-ber.Select an element from either or that has the lowest number.Assume that we choose from so that is refined in but not in.In,is refined because a neigh-boring element created a non-conforming ver-tex at the midpoint of their shared edge.There-fore is refined in but not in because otherwise it would cause to be refined in both sequences.This implies that is also in and has a lower refinement number than con-。

IOP P UBLISHING N ANOTECHNOLOGY Nanotechnology20(2009)195601(9pp)doi:10.1088/0957-4484/20/19/195601A thermal study on the structural changes of bimetallic ZrO2-modified TiO2 nanotubes synthesized using supercritical CO2R A Lucky and P A Charpentier1Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering,University of Western Ontario,London,ON,N6A5B9,CanadaE-mail:pcharpentier@eng.uwo.caReceived4November2008,infinal form19February2009Published21April2009Online at /Nano/20/195601AbstractIn this study the thermal behavior of bimetallic ZrO2–TiO2(10/90mol/mol)nanotubes arediscussed which were synthesized via a sol–gel process in supercritical carbon dioxide(scCO2).The effects of calcination temperature on the morphology,phase structure,mean crystallite size,specific surface area and pore volume of the nanotubes were investigated by using a variety ofphysiochemical techniques.We report that SEM and TEM images showed that the nanotubularstructure was preserved at up to800◦C calcination temperature.When exposed to highertemperatures(900–1000◦C)the ZrO2–TiO2tubes deformed and the crystallites fused together,forming larger crystallites,and a bimetallic ZrTiO4species was detected.These results werefurther examined using TGA,FTIR,XRD and HRTEM analysis.The BET textural propertiesdemonstrated that the presence of a small amount of Zr in the TiO2matrix inhibited the graingrowth,stabilized the anatase phase and increased the thermal stability.(Somefigures in this article are in colour only in the electronic version)1.IntroductionConsiderable effort is being devoted to the preparation of one-dimensional(1D)oxide nanostructures due to their poten-tial applications in a diversity of technologies including catal-ysis,high efficiency solar cells,coatings and sensors[1–3].In particular,titania(TiO2)nanotubes are receiving considerable attention due to titania’s unique optoelectronic,photochemical and dielectric properties,along with being a low cost material for potential commercial employment[4–7].Having such unique properties,TiO2nanomaterials with defined structures are highly desirable for electron-transport materials in dye-sensitized solar cells,as photocatalysts,photoconductive agents and nanofillers in polymer composites[7,8].The performance of these titania nanomaterials widely relies on their crystallinity,crystallite size,crystal structure,specific surface area and thermal stability[9,10].As examples,the 1Author to whom any correspondence should be addressed.role of anatase and rutile crystal phases in TiO2nanostructures is still under active investigation for photocatalysis,where the interface between these nanostructures is believed to be the catalytic active site[11].The rutile crystal structure is important for stronger materials for use in orthopedic applications such as bone cements[12].For preparing these oxide nanostructures,the sol–gel method is becoming the standard method as it provides a uniform phase distribution,high purity,low temperature processing,and better size and morphology control[13]. However,the properties of sol–gel-synthesized binary metal oxides strongly depend on the synthesis conditions,such as the type of alkoxide(s),temperature,catalyst,solvent and solvent removal process[14,15].In the past decade,direct sol–gel reactions in supercritical carbon dioxide(scCO2)have attracted much attention for synthesizing oxide nanomaterials[16–19]. This approach has many advantages over the conventional sol–gel process operated in an organic solvent,as the resulting ma-terials maintain nanofeatures and a high surface area after CO2drying and venting[20].Low viscosity,‘zero’surface tension and high diffusivity of scCO2are favorable physical properties of the solvent for synthesizing potential superior ultrafine and uniform nanomaterials.As well,CO2is inexpensive, inflammable and considered a‘green’reaction medium[21].Previously,we discovered that bimetallic Zr-modified TiO2(Zr–TiO2)nanotubes could be synthesized in scCO2,and our preliminary results indicated that the nanotubes gave a high surface area,up to430m2g−1,as prepared[22].According to several studies,a small amount of transition metal doping has been found very effective to improve the thermal stability and activity of TiO2,particularly by using zirconia[23–26].In addition to the synthesis conditions,the calcination conditions are very important to the crystal structures of the metal oxide nanomaterials obtained,and subsequently,their potential end use applications.Spijksma et al[27]synthesized titania–zirconia microporous composite membranes using a1:1molar ratio by using the sol–gel process.The crystallization temperature for these materials was750◦C;however,after calcining at800◦C,an orthorhombic ZrTi2O6structure was formed,commonly known as srilankite.Whereas Zou et al [28]synthesized binary oxides by hydrolysis of titanium and zirconium nitrate solutions at various ratios.After calcining at 800◦C,the binary oxide showed the presence of the ZrTiO4 crystal phase and very low surface areas.Kitiyanan et al [23]synthesized5mol%zinconia-modified TiO2using a sol–gel process.They showed that this small amount of Zr stabilized the anatase phase up to800◦C,but that the anatase phase completely transformed into the rutile phase at 1000◦C.However,the materials calcined at these very high temperatures showed very low surface areas.As the nanotubular structure of the bimetallic ZrO2/TiO2 nanotubes has many potentially interesting applications, however,their structure and crystal morphology changes with calcination temperature have not been investigated.Hence, this study focused on the thermal behavior of the synthesized Zr–TiO2(10/90mol/mol)nanotubes prepared via an acetic acid modified sol–gel process in scCO2.The synthesized materials were calcined at different temperatures and the effects of calcination temperature on the morphology,phase structure,mean crystallite size,specific surface area and pore volume were investigated using a variety of physicochemical characterization techniques.2.Experimental details2.1.MaterialsReagent grade titanium(IV)isopropoxide(TIP,97%,Aldrich), zirconium(IV)propoxide(ZPO,70%,Aldrich),acetic acid(99.7%,Aldrich)and instrument grade carbon dioxide (99.99%,BOC)were used without further purification.2.2.Nanotube synthesisThe procedure previously reported[22]was used for synthesis of10%ZrO2–90%TiO2nanotubes.2.3.CharacterizationScanning electron microscopy(SEM)measurements were usedto determine the size and morphology of nanomaterials usinga LEO1530scanning electron microscope.Transmissionelectron microscopy(TEM)and HRTEM images wereobtained using a Philips CM10and JEOL2010f.Thespecimens were dispersed in methanol and placed on a coppergrid covered with a holey carbonfilm.Thermo-gravimetricanalysis(TGA)was performed under nitrogen atmosphere ona TA Instruments TA-Q500at a heating rate of10◦C min−1 from room temperature to1000◦C.IR spectra were recordedon a Bruker IFS55Spectrometer in the range500–4000cm−1.Each spectrum was recorded at4cm−1resolution using500scans.Sample pellets were obtained from the powder calcinedat various temperatures by mixing with a small amount of KBr,then analyzing in transmission mode.Bulk composition wasdetermined using energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy(EDX)attached to a LEO1530scanning electron microscope(SEM).X-ray diffraction(XRD)was performed utilizing a Rigakuemploying Cu Kα1+Kα2=1.54184˚A radiation with a power of40kV–35mA for the crystalline analysis.The broad-scan analysis was typically conducted within the2θrangeof10◦–80◦.The samples were further analyzed using a RenishawModel2000Raman spectrometer equipped with a633nmlaser.The power at the sample varied between0.2and0.5mWwith the beam defocused to an area of approximately5–10μmin diameter.The textural characterization,such as surface area,pore volume and pore size distribution of the aerogels andthe oxides,was obtained by N2physisorption at77K usinga Micromeritics ASAP2010.Prior to the N2physisorption,the samples were degassed at200◦C under vacuum.Fromthe N2adsorption isotherms,the specific surface area wascalculated.The mesopore volume(V BJH),the average pore diameters(d p)and the pore size distributions were estimated by the Barret–Joyner–Halenda(BJH)method applied to the desorption branch of the isotherm.3.Results and discussion3.1.Electron microscopy(SEM/TEM)The effects of calcination temperature on the morphology of the Zr–TiO2nanotubes’shape and size were characterized by SEM and TEM analysis.In the SEM analysis for the as-prepared materials,it can be seen infigure1(a)that the aerogel powders were composed of a one-dimensional structure,with the nanotubes having a diameter of50–140nm and a length of several micrometers.Throughout the course of heat treatment, phase changes(amorphous to anatase to rutile)and sintering phenomena of the nanotubes were revealed by SEM and TEM investigations.The SEM image infigure1(b)shows that the material calcined at500◦C has a similar structure,although very small holes are visible in the TEM image(figure2(b))on the walls of the nanotubes.The morphology of the calcined nanotubes at800◦C is still preserved,as shown infigure1(c). As the temperature was increased further to1000◦C,the initial nanotubes disappeared and were replaced by nanometer-sizedFigure1.SEM:Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at:(a)as-prepared,(b)500,(c)800and(d)1000◦C(bar represents200nm;all the samples were examined after platinum coating).aggregated particles in the50–100nm size range,as shown in figure1(d).Along with SEM,TEM images gave more detailed morphological information on the tubular structure.The TEM image infigure2(a)indicates that the as-prepared nanotubes possessed uniform inner and outer diameters,having thicknesses approx.14–50nm along their length,depending on synthesis conditions.Upon heat treatment to500◦C, the chemically bonded organic layer was removed from the synthesized nanotubes,resulting in small holes on the tube wall,which was confirmed by the TEM image in figure2(b),although the internal structure was still maintained at this temperature.The SEM images showed that the outer morphology was preserved at800◦C,although at900◦C the TEM images shown that the inner hole has almost vanished with this additional heat energy(figure2(c)).The TEM images along with SEM images reveal that the nanotubes were deformed and the crystallites were fused together when the calcination temperature was increased to1000◦C (figure2(d)).3.2.Decomposition behavior(TGA/FTIR)Thermo-gravimetric analysis(TG–DTG)analysis was carried out to study the thermal decomposition behavior of the synthesized Zr–TiO2nanotubes.Figure3shows three main peaks in the TG–DTG analysis,which are in the ranges of 20–120,120–250and250–500◦C.Thefirst stage with peak maxima at37◦C gave only6wt%loss,which we attribute to the removal of residual solvent present in the synthesized materials.The second peak with its maximum at200◦C is attributed to the removal of bounded water and chemically bonded organic material,with approx.19wt%lost at this stage. The third peak,with its maximum at341◦C,is broad and is attributed to the removal of any bonded/coordinated organic material and−OH groups,with approximately an additional 21wt%loss at this temperature.The weight loss over500◦C was extremely small(0.14%)and attributed to removal of bounded−OH groups.The total weight loss measured from the TG curve was46wt%.Elemental analysis(EDX)was also performed(see table1)to investigate the change of composition with calci-nation temperature.It showed that the as-prepared nanotubes contained approx.30%carbon,with this value decreasing upon increasing calcination temperature.At300◦C,the carbon content was about18%,while when the temperature was increased to500◦C,all carbon-containing organic material was removed,consistent with the TG–DTG results.Materials calcined at higher temperatures had only metal,oxygen and a ratio of oxygen to metal atom change with temperature. Surfaces of metal oxides consist of unsaturated metal and oxide ions,and are usually terminated by−OH groups.Figure 2.TEM:Zr–TiO 2nanotubes calcined at (a)as-prepared,(b)500,(c)900and (d)1000◦C.Figure 3.Weight loss of nanotubes as a function of temperature.The −OH groups are formed by dissociative adsorption of H 2O molecules to reduce the coordinative unsaturation of the surface sites.It is very difficult to analyze the amount of oxygen bonded with metal atoms only by the EDX method,as the amount of H present in the materials cannot be determined by EDX due to the low atomic weight of H.Infrared spectroscopy is an excellent method to study the behavior and properties of metal oxides [28].The powder ATR-FTIR spectra of the Zr–TiO 2nanotubes calcined at different temperatures in air are given in figure 4.TheTable positional change with calcination temperature determined by EDX.Sample(Cal.temp ◦C)Carbon (at.%)Oxygen (at.%)Ti (at.%)Zr (at.%)As-prepared

absorbed water [29].The peaks at 1548and 1452cm −1are due to symmetric and asymmetric stretching of the zirconium titanium acetate complex,respectively [30].This metal acetate complex confirms that the acetic acid formed bridging complexes with the metal ions,helping to stabilize the structures during their synthesis and self-assembly into nanotubular structures in scCO 2.The −CH 3group contributes the small peak at 1343cm −1,while the two small peaks at 1037and 1024cm −1correspond to the ending and bridging −OPr groups,respectively [31],indicating that unhydrolyzed −OPr groups were present in the as-prepared materials [32].The oxo bonds can be observed by the bands present below 657cm −1[30].Calcination at 400◦C significantly diminishes the intensity of the C–H stretching at 2800–3000cm −1and the zirconium titanium acetate complex band at 1548andFigure4.The powder ATR-FTIR spectra of Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at different temperatures.1452cm−1,spectra given infigure4(b).This indicates thatthe calcination at400◦C removes any organic material presentin the as-prepared nanotubes.No trace of IR bands fromthe organic groups was detected upon further heat treatment(figure4(c))and the broad peak at3400cm−1significantlydecreased.The nanotubes calcined at1000◦C showed onlya small band at3400cm−1(figure4(d)),indicating only asmall amount of−OH groups were still present at this hightemperature.These results are consistent with the TG–DTGmeasurements and the electron microscopy results.3.3.XRD and HRTEMIn order to examine the phase structure and crystallite size,XRD and HRTEM were used to investigate the effects of thecalcination temperature on the crystal size and phase structure.During heat treatment,the as-prepared materials transferredfrom the amorphous to anatase to rutile phases.The XRDpatterns(figure5)of all the calcined samples indicate that theZr–TiO2nanotubes consist of anatase crystal,with no rutile phase being present up to700◦C.The as-prepared materials were amorphous,while whenincreasing the calcination temperature up to400◦C,thematerial reorganized itself and the anatase particles beganto grow,resulting in crystalline material.There wasno distinct Zr peak,indicating no phase separation,andthat the Zr was integrated within the anatase crystalstructure for this composition.Previous experimentsshowed that increasing concentrations of Zr alkoxidewere incorporated homogeneously into the nanotubularstructure[22].As well,we previously prepared a crystalof Zr2Ti4(μ3–O)4(OPr)4(μ–OPr)2(μ–OAc)10using lower concentrations of acetic acid[33],showing that the Zr is partof the crystal hexamer structure.By increasing the calcinationtemperature from400to800◦C,the peak intensities increasedas well as the width of the peaks becoming narrower,indicatingan improvement of the anatase phase and simultaneously thegrowth of anatase crystallites.The XRD patterns for theobserved nanotubes indicate that no rutile phase appeared upto calcination temperatures of700◦C.It also shows thatheat Figure5.The powder XRD spectra of Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at different temperatures.(A–anatase,R–rutile).Table2.Crystal size and crystal structure at different calcination temperatures.Sample(Cal.temp◦C)Crystallite size(nm)Crystal structure

treatment at800◦C forms a very small peak of the rutile phase, and further heat treatment increased the amount of rutile phase, and a new peak appeared at2θ=30.4◦,which is assigned to zirconium titanium oxide(ZrTiO4)[28].The crystallite sizes of the calcined samples are summarized in table2and were estimated from these XRD patterns using Scherrer’s equation(equation(1)):D=0.9λβcosθ(1) where D is the average nanocrystallite size(nm),λis the x-ray wavelength(1.541˚A),βis the full width at half-maximum intensity(in radians)andθis half of the diffraction peak angle.For the nanotubes calcined at400◦C,crystallite sizes of approx.9.8nm were calculated,while further heat treatment increased the crystallite size moderately.Nanotubes calcined at800◦C gave crystallite sizes up to21.8nm,resulting in smaller crystallite materials,indicating that a small amount of zirconia inhibited grain growth during heat treatment[26]. The rutile crystallite size was calculated by Scherrer’s equation using rutile(110).The obtained crystallite size was>90nm at1000◦C calcination temperature,smaller than the value reported in the literature for rutile crystallites[29],likely due to the constrained geometry of the nanotubular structure.The TEM images of the1000◦C calcined nanotubes previously showed that the crystallites were fused together,formingFigure6.HRTEM:Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at(a)as-prepared,(b)500and(c)1000◦C.Bar represents10nm. larger crystallites.It is known that rutile and anataseshare two and four polyhedra edges,respectively,althoughboth are tetragonal[34].Due to changes in the crystalstructure,the nanotubes’morphology deformed at highercalcination temperatures.The phase compositions of the calcined samples are alsoreported in table2and were calculated using the integratedintensities of anatase(101)and rutile(110)peaks by theequation developed by Spurr and Myers[35]:X rutile=11+K(I a/I r)(2)where I a and I r are the integrated peak intensities of the anatase and rutile phases,respectively,and the empirical constant K was taken as0.79according to Spurr and Myers.From table2 we see that the material calcined at800◦C contained only12% rutile.Further heat treatment caused a dramatic increase in both the composition and size of the rutile particles,where at 900◦C,58%of the material was converted into rutile,which increased to approx.94%at1000◦C.Rutile is the most stable crystalline phase of TiO2and the phase transformation(anatase to rutile)depends on both the size and dopant present in the system[26].Sui et al reported that anatase-type TiO2nanostructures transformed into rutile phase(56%)after calcination at600◦C[18],whereas only 12%of the nanomaterial was converted into rutile at800◦C in the present study.Hence,consistent with the literature for non-nanotubular structures[23],the anatase phase of the bimetallic nanotubes can be stabilized by modifying titania with a small amount of ZrO2.However,the mechanism by which the zirconia stabilizes the TiO2anatase phase at higher temperatures is unclear.As shown in the XRD data,no distinct zirconium peak was observed,indicating that zirconia was well integrated into the anatase structure.This suggests that particle agglomeration was not favored and the particles grew by the Oswald ripening process during heat treatment[26].Due to the presence of zirconia,the Oswald ripening process was restricted,reducing the crystal growth rate and increasing the phase transformation temperature.Once individual crystallites reach a threshold size,a spontaneous phase change can occur.The rapid growth of rutile particles formed during heat treatment suggests that the growth mechanism consists of particle agglomeration or grain coalescence by grain boundary diffusion[36].There may be a threshold size limit for this transformation,below which no transformation occurs,which was>27nm for this study, similar to that reported for SiO2and ZrO2doping in a titania matrix[26,36].For this reason,no rutile phase appeared up to 700◦C.When calcining at800◦C,the crystallites size became >27nm and the anatase phase started transforming rapidly into the rutile phase.In addition to the XRD data,detailed information on the structural transformations and crystal growth can be obtained using HRTEM.The HRTEM micrographs of the as-preparedFigure7.The Raman spectra of Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at: (a)500,(b)600,(c)700,(d)800,(e)900and(f)1000◦C.(A–anatase,R–rutile).nanotubes were amorphous(figure6(a))with no ordered structure.The lattice image of nanotubes calcined at500◦C is given infigure6(b),showing a grain size of approx.12nm width with a d spacing0.35nm,very close to the lattice spacing of the(101)planes of the anatase phase.However, all grains were not the same in terms of size and shape. Some were long with significant lattice mismatch and grain boundaries.All these defects prevent rapid grain growth.The HRTEM image for the material calcined at1000◦C is given infigure6(c),where little amorphous phase is observed.The crystallites were very large having a d spacing of0.245nm, which value is very close to the rutile(110)plane of titania. These observations also support the XRD and TEM analysis.3.4.RamanTo further verify these results,Raman spectra for the bimetallic nanotube samples were measured for several different calcination temperatures,as shown infigure7.The spectrum for the sample calcined at500◦C(figure7(a)) shows Raman peaks at142,395,517and639cm−1,which can be assigned to the E g,B1g,B1g/A1g and E g modes of the anatase phase of titania,respectively,which agrees with published values[37].With increasing calcination temperature infigures7(b)–(d),the intensity of the anatase phase increased, indicating a larger particle size being present,with the anatase peak shifting to lower frequencies.Lottici et al[38]explained this effect as the size-induced pressure effect on the vibrational modes,with the smaller the crystallite size,the higher the pressure and Raman frequencies.After calcining at900◦C (figure7(e)),three new peaks at230,442and612cm−1 appeared,which match the literature values for the rutile phase[37,38].Upon calcining at1000◦C(figure7(f)), all anatase-related peaks vanished and only the rutile-related peaks remain,indicating complete anatase to rutile phase transformation.The Raman results agree with the previous characterizationresults.Figure8.Ln of anatase and rutile crystallite size in nm as a function of the reciprocal of absolute temperature according to equation(3). (—anatase,•/◦—rutile).3.5.Activation energy of phase transformationsThe activation energy(kJ mol−1)of phase transformations can be calculated from the slope of a plot of ln rutile weight fraction versus the reciprocal of annealing temperature from XRD spectra according to Burns et al[39].This relationship is given asE a=−∂ln(X r)∂(1/T)R(3) where T is the temperature in kelvin,R is the universal gas constant(8.314J mol−1K−1)and X r is the weight fraction of the rutile phase as determined using equation(2).Figure8 shows the plot of the logarithm of the average crystallite size versus the reciprocal of the calcination temperature(solid lines),according to equation(3).A linear relationship is observed and the activation energy for the crystal growth of the Zr–TiO2nanotubes was calculated as12.8kJ mol−1and 36.4kJ mol−1for anatase and rutile phases,respectively.The activation energy for the phase transformation from anatase to rutile was also calculated,as shown by the dashed line in figure8,with a value of171kJ mol−1.These values are higher than those reported for nanocrystalline pure titania[39,40], which is a beneficial effect of doping.In explanation,during the heat treatment,there are two competitive processes:grain growth and A→R phase transformation in the nanocrystalline materials.Both processes are easier for small grain-sized materials because the activation energy for growth and phase transformation is lower[41].3.6.BET analysisThe textural properties,i.e.the surface area,pore volume and pore size distributions of the as-prepared and calcined bimetallic nanotubes were characterized by nitrogen adsorp-tion studies.Figure9shows the nitrogen adsorption isotherms for both the as-prepared and calcined materials,which exhibit H3hysteresis loops(to800◦C),typical for mesoporous materials.The isotherm for the bimetallic metal oxide nanotubes calcined at1000◦C changes to a type I isotherm, typical for a microporous material[42].The lower limit ofFigure9.N2adsorption/desorption isotherm of the Zr–TiO2 nanotubes calcined at differenttemperatures.Figure10.BJH pore size distribution of the Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at different temperatures.the relative pressure for the hysteresis loop is characteristic of a given adsorbate at a given temperature[43].It can be seen fromfigure9for both the as-prepared nanotubes,and for those calcined at300and400◦C that the lower pressure limit of the hysteresis loop is at P/P0=0.4.Calcinations at higher temperatures increase this value,e.g.at600◦C,P/P0increasesto approx.0.55,while after800◦C this value increases to0.6, indicating that the pores are becoming larger as the materials are calcined at higher temperatures.To evaluate the pore size distribution,the as-prepared and calcined materials were plotted as shown infigure10. The average pore diameter for the as-prepared nanotubes is approx.3nm,whereas upon calcination the pore size became gradually larger and the pore size distribution shifted,forming larger pores at the expense of the smaller ones.At600◦C the pore size is approx.9nm while,when the nanomaterials were calcined at800◦C,the pore size became more than double at approx.19nm.Calcining the materials at1000◦C collapsed the small pores,resulting in only larger pores.The surface properties of the Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at different temperatures are summarized infigure11.The as-prepared Zr–TiO2nanotubes,having a surface area of 430m2g−1,gradually decrease through calcination.Due to the sintering phenomena,the small pores collapse,reducingthe Figure11.Surface area and pore volume of the Zr–TiO2nanotubes calcined at different temperatures as a function of calcination temperature.pore volume and surface area.The transformations into anatase and rutile crystalline phases will also help to reduce the surface area.Interestingly,literature values show that pure titania has almost zero surface area at this high temperature[44,45]. Hence,the presence of10%zirconia increased the thermal stability and reduced grain growth rates during the course of heat treatment,resulting in moderate(23m2g−1)surface areas at very high temperature.4.ConclusionsThe thermal behavior of the Zr–TiO2nanotubes synthesized by an acid-modified sol–gel process in scCO2has been investigated in detail using SEM,TEM,TG,EDX,FTIR, XRD,HRTEM,Raman and BET analysis.SEM and TEM analysis confirmed that the morphology of the nanotube structure was preserved at up to800◦C,whereas further heat treatment deformed the tubes.FTIR and EDX analysis showed that different organic residues were removed,depending on the calcination temperature.Along with HRTEM and Raman, XRD results showed anatase nanocrystallites were formed after calcining at400◦C,while no rutile phase appeared until calcining at700◦C,with further heat treatment resulting in a rutile phase transformation and ZrTiO4being formed. The activation energy for anatase and rutile crystal growth was calculated and the values were12.8and36.4kJ mol−1, respectively.The activation energy for phase transformation was determined to be171kJ mol−1,higher than that of pure titania nanomaterials.The as-prepared nanotubes had a430m2g−1specific surface area(SSA),whereas after calcining at1000◦C the SSA was reduced to23m2g−1. Hence,the ZrO2present in the titania matrix increased thermal stability,reducing grain growth resulting in smaller crystallites, and hence preserving the morphology and surface area at high temperatures.AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Nancy Bell from the UWO Nanotechnology Centre for the SEM analysis,Ronald。

上式左边与线性波动方程类似. 目前,孤立子的数学理论已初步形成比较完整的理论系统, 而这些孤立子方 程的求解成为最受关注的问题,孤立子理论中已有一整套方法用于求解非线性偏 微分方程的精确解,为非线性偏微分方程(NPDE)及非线性科学注入了新的活力. 例如 1967 年 GGKM 发现的用一维 Schrodinger 方程求解方程初值问题的反散射方 法[5-8],在一定程度上可以看成非线性问题的傅立叶方法;利用多种变换和技巧 求解非线性偏微分方程精确解的 Darboux 变换[9-11]、Backlund 变换[12-18]、 Hirota 双线性方法[19-22],Painleve 分析法[24-29]、齐次平衡法、非线性化方 法、代数曲线方法等.这些方法涉及到经典分析、泛函分析、李群、李代数、无穷 维李代数、微分几何、代数几何、拓扑学、动力系统和计算数学等多个数学分支. 它们的发现和应用,不仅使得过去难以求解的非线性偏微分方程得以成功求解,而 且不断发现许多非线性方程的具有重要意义的新解. 给定一个非线性发展方程,如何判定它是否可用反散射方法(IST)求解?这 是孤立子理论的基本问题,在这方面至今虽有大量的工作,但较有成效的还属 Wahlquist 和 Estabrook 的延拓结构法[23]以及 Ablowitz 等人的化为 Painleve 方程的方法[24-29]. Ablowitz 等人发现从 IST 可解的偏微分方程(PDE),用相似 约化方法得出常微分方程(ODE),有非常简单的特征:都具有 Painleve 性质.比 如大家熟知的 Boussinesq 方程 utt = u xx + ( u2 1 ) xx + u xxxx ,MKdV 方程 2 4

INTRODUCTION
During last few years, the constrained KP hierarchy is studied intensively1−3,5 . This hierarchy is the result of generalizing Cao’s6 nonlinearization to the 2+1 dimensional case. Very interestingly, as the famous Gelfand-Dikii hierarchy7 , the constrained KP hierarchy is both mathematically and physically important. On the one hand, it contains physically applicable models, such as Yajima-Oikawa8 model and Melnikov9 model. On the other hand, the constrained KP hierarchy is Bi-Hamiltonian5 , has Darboux transformation10 , can be modified11 and is relevant to the theory of the W algebra12 . Very recently, the constrained KP is shown to be just a special case of a more general restriction of the KP hierarchy13 . Sidorenko and Strampp4 introduced multi-component KP hierarchy, which is a straightforward generalization of the scalar case. This is the hierarchy associated with the following Lax operator

the corresponding flows may be constructed by means of Fractional Power Method7 . For n = 1, one has multi-component AKNS, which includes the important coupled nonlinear Schr¨ odinger 14 equation as a special case. For the cases n = 2 and n = 3, one has the multi-component YajimaOikawa hierarchy and Melnikov hierarchy respectively. Sidorenko and Strampp4 further constructed recursion operators for the cases n = 2 and n = 3 by means of variational calculus developed in the Ref.15. They claimed that their recursion operators have implectic-symplectic factorizations in the sense of Fuchssteiner and Fokas17 . That is to say, they claimed that the Bi-Hamiltonian structures are found for the multi-component Yajima-Oikawa hierarchy and Melnikov hierarchy. Unfortunately, they did not prove their statement either directly or indirectly. The partial reason is that their candidates for the Hamiltonian structures are complicated nonlocal matrix operators and direct proof would be too tedious to do by ha The aim of the paper is to show that Sidorenko and Strampp’s claim is not correct. We will prove that their second Hamiltonian structures are not qualified as Hamiltonian at all. Furthermore, we will present alternative candidates for the second Hamiltonian structures and prove that it leads to hereditary operators. For simplicity, we concentrate on the simplest and non trivial case: twocomponent case. The generalization to the multi-component case will be commented in the due course. The paper is arranged as follows. The next section is on the two-component AKNS systems. Sidorenko-Strampp type operator is presented and shown to be not hereditary. A candidate for the second Hamiltonian operators is constructed. Also, we present a hereditary operator for this hierarchy. We do the same thing in the section three for the two-component Yajima-Oikawa hierarchy. Section four contains some comments on generalizations of the results of section two and section three and gives some outlines for the further study.

We first give Sidorenko-Strampp type operator and show it is not hereditary. The Lax operator is L1 = ∂ − q1 ∂ −1 r1 − q2 ∂ −1 r2 , the flows are L1tk = [((L1 )k )+ , L1 ],

TWO-COMPONENT AKNS HIERARCHY
We consider the two-component AKNS system next. This hierarchy is known for long time. In fact, the so important coupled nonlinear Schr¨ odinger equation14 is a reduction of it. However, the explicit form of recursion operator is not written down to the best of my knowledge although it might be known to the specialists. For the motivation of the next section, we present it here. 2
