Making outline
- Form insulated/planarized lateral conductors from mechanical electrodes through the selected frit seal boundary to exposed external pads
- Build or acquire each explicit earlier physical input; establish independent references and interfaces.
- Make trials and accept only against the eventual caller specification; record uncertainty and rejected outputs.
What remains unresolved
- Full inventory, required quantities, process settings, numerical demand and suitability remain open.
