You will need crystalline silicon. You need to smelt Certus Quartz, Quartzite, or Flint until it turns into Silicon Dioxide, then combine it with carbon or dark ashes in the Mixer to make Silicon Dust. Make a Chromium or better crucible. You can make a Meteoric Steel crucible if you have picked up enough meteorites (28) if you are afraid of melting your crucible. Find an platinum vein (Height 40-50) and mine enough for 7 plates (or find some in chests). Be very careful not to overheat your iridium ore as the melting point for iridium is only 6 K below the melting point for the Chromium Crucible. Make an iridium crucible and then use it to make a. Use your silicon in it with Helium, Neon, or Argon (which you can get by smelting Monazite in the Smelter) and you get a Silicon Boule, which you can cut into crystalline plates for s which are used in the Press to finish the, which you then combine with molten Lead in a to make a. Or use better and molten Tin for the better.
