Capability requirements and tolerances
Consumer-specific numerical targets, quantities and acceptance limits remain open or incompletely reviewed. No smartphone-grade suitability is claimed. Distinct capability tiers require their own making route and qualification.
Known Parts and Tools
The selected route supplies this page's inventory and the map's dependency links from one record. Further requirements may be missing; review flags do not prove physical suitability.

Complete inventory, selected process and compatible quantitative capability remain open. Unselected because electronics/power/control/calibration availability may form a self-supporting manufacturing cycle; no earlier capability tier is established.
Making outline
- Construct wafer slicing, edge shaping and polishing tools with separately established motion/flatness references
- Develop a bounded process specification and establish earlier availability of every listed physical prerequisite.
- Make trial pieces, measure interfaces and performance with independently established references, and reject incompatible outputs.
What remains unresolved
- Making route and target-level requirements not researched.
- Discovery hypothesis only: quantitative demands, full recipe, quantities, losses, compatibility and acceptance remain to be researched.
Unselected discovery proposals
These are research questions, not published manufacturing dependencies. The seed combines alternatives, operating requirements and verification relationships.
