COMMENTS
Note that there are two cases: (1) n is 2p, in which case the semiprime is Fibonacci(p)*Lucas(p) for some prime p, or (2) n is a power of a prime p^k for k > 0. In the first case, the primes p are in sequence A080327. In the second case, it appears that k=1 except for n = 8, 9 and 121. - T. D. Noe, Sep 23 2005
The associated sequence of Fibonacci numbers contains no squares, since the only Fibonacci numbers which are square are 1 and 144. Consequently this is a subsequence of A114842. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Sep 24 2012
Sequence continues as 1543?, 1709, 1741?, 1759, 1801?, 1889, 1987, ..., where ? marks uncertain terms. - Max Alekseyev, Jul 10 2016

EXAMPLE
a(4) = 14 because the 14th Fibonacci number 377 = 13*29 is a semiprime.
