Research on evolution and security risk of Metaverse by Hailong WANG, Yangchun LI, Yuxiao LI

“…Recently, the Metaverse boom has swept the world.To improve the voice in the future digital field, major countries and well-known enterprises have accelerated arrangement of this emerging industry.However, there is no unified definition and ultimate form description of Metaverse.It is urgent to understand the essential characteristics, evolution trend and security risks of Metaverse scientifically, which can promote the high-quality development of China’s electronic information industry and ensure the cyberspace security.With literature research and related information analysis, the definition of Metaverse was put forward based on the core concepts such as technology and application iteration, economic and business model and the role of social relations.Additionally, the development and evolution of Metaverse were divided into four stages (data creation, digital bionics, virtual mirror and virtual-real symbiosis) according to the evolution degree of space category, space-time dimension, key technology and virtual real interaction.And the characteristics and corresponding forms of each stage were expounded.Then it analyzed the main reasons for the popularity of the Metaverse from the perspectives of innovative application demand, virtual life transformation, commercial value driving and political power driving.Focusing on the problems of challenging the national governance system, impacting the mainstream ideology, manipulating the capital market, causing potential social problems and misleading the layout of technology industry, it analyzed the multiple security risks and threats brought by the Metaverse wave from perspectives including politics, culture, economy, society and technology.It is suggested that the Metaverse is still in the stage of concept improvement and product exploration now.China should rationally grasp the development opportunities of the Metaverse based on the current situation of the electronic information industry, prepare for risks in advance, build a digital governance supervision system, stimulate industrial innovation and open development, consolidate the support of network information security, and create a healthy and orderly international environment.…”

Spectral Ellipsometry as a Method of Investigation of Influence of Rapid Thermal Processing of Silicon Wafers on their Optical Characteristics by V. A. Solodukha, U. A. Pilipenko, A. A. Omelchenko, D. V. Shestovski

“…In the area of the maximum absorption peak, corresponding to the energy of the electron exit from the silicon surface (4.34 eV) the refraction indicator of the high doped silicon becomes higher, than of the low doped silicon, which is determined by the high concentration of the vacant charge carriers on the silicon surface in this spectral range.It was established, that the spectral area 3.59–4.67 eV, corresponding to the work of the electrons, exiting the silicon surface, the most informative way shows the difference of the 3 optical parameters of silicon of the different orientation, and for evaluation of influence of the silicon doping level on its optical characteristics the most informative is the spectral range of 3.32–4.34 eV.…”
