A ratio of 3:1 i-line/DUV steppers in new orders was announced by ASM recently. Since chip manufacturers already have i-line steppers why do they need to buy more of them now, when the trend is towards 0.25 nm? Do these new i-line steppers have capability to do higher resolution features? For example, can they be retrofitted later with DUV excimer lasers? Thanks, Maxwell, for your in-depth explanation.
