Comments

a(0) = 2 is the only prime in the sequence. (By symmetry in both lattices, we are adding two sequences with even terms if n>0.) a(n) is semiprime for a(1) = 10 = 2 * 5, a(4) = 718 = 2 * 359, a(9) = 980402 = 2 * 490201. The Jensen table linked from A001334 should allow extension through a(40).
