COMMENTS
The n-th term has n(n+1)/2 digits (cf. A000217). There are (0, 3, 29, 991, 175210, ...) primes of that form, for n = 1, 2, 3, .... We can conjecture that a(n) > 0 for all n, and even that the terms converge to the concatenation of (s(1), s(2), s(3), ...) where s(n) is the smallest n-digit square, cf. formula. - M. F. Hasler, Dec 31 2020

FORMULA
a(n) ~ 10^(n(n+1)/2) * 0.1161001024100001004891000000100045691... - M. F. Hasler, Dec 31 2020
EXAMPLE
a(2) = 149, which is a prime, and the concatenation of 1 = 1^2 with 49 = 7^2.
a(3) = 125441, which is a prime, and the 1 = 1^2 with 25 = 5^2 with 441 = 21^2.
PROG
(PARI) apply( {A215689(n)=forvec(v=vector(n, k, [ceil(10^((k-1)/2)), sqrtint(10^k-1)]), ispseudoprime(n=eval(concat([Str(k^2)|k<-v])))&&return(n))}, [1..11]) \\ M. F. Hasler, Dec 31 2020
