TG, After giving this some more thought and referring to the literature, the 0.2pm difference in spectral bandwith between the LP and Cymer lasers does enable improved resolution and DOF through the use of a higher NA lenses. It does not mean that the Cymer 5000 offering is not capable of 0.18um resolutions, but the LP laser is better suited by virtue of its better bandwith number. So in retrospect, the 5010 bandwith-improved model being introduced in Q2 seems to be a response to this. I apologize for the outright dismissal before. And now, back to the hockey game... Bob PS I'm just a layperson in this area, so you experts out there please correct anything that may be incorrect. Got a textbook on optics coming in the mail, so I should be able to improve my knowledge in this area time permitting.
