LONDON — The average selling price of lithography equipment will continue to rise by between 10 percent and 15 percent per year according to Boudewijn Sluijk, director of corporate marketing at ASML Holding NV.

Sluijk spoke on Monday evening (Sept. 19) to an audience of financial analysts ahead of a day or presentations organized by ASML (Veldhoven, The Netherlands). His slide presentation showed the ASP for litho equipment at $9 million in 2005 rising to about $20 million in 2009. The climb represents a slightly faster rate

Over the same time throughput per system is expected to increase from 1700 wafers per day to 2600 wafers per day, moving on to a throughput of more than 3000 wafers per day in 2012.

In the same presentation material Sluijk showed that immersion is set to become the leading purchase option for 193-nanometer wavelength lithography in 2008. According to ASML’s fab-based model, immersion systems will be 50 percent of worldwide argon-fluoride laser source lithography equipment unit sales in 2008, up from 17 percent in 2006. In 2009 immersion is set to take 57 percent of the market and 75 percent in 2012.
